2 Pack Double Thickening Heat Diffuser Reducer Flame Guard Simmer Plate, Stainless Steel for Electric and Gas Stovetops

Great for reducing direct heat on the pan from a gas stove, especially those in a motorhome where the stoves do not adjust as well as home stoves. Also works well to defuse heat from home stoves.

I cook everything with cast iron just because I'm old school and don't care for synthetics getting in my food. Cast iron isn't famous for its heat conductivity. So unless you know your stove really well, cooking eggs can be a challenge with cast iron. I know my stove. I heat it on high until the temp is right for eggs then I put it at a touch above 4. Otherwise, the whole pan doesn't heat evenly and the eggs aren't perfect. I'm particular with eggs. With this, the entire pan is the same temperature! Eggwhites are bubbling evenly and sliding around like a dream (cast iron cookers know what I'm talking about). And if making aebleskivers... you know the frustration of a authentic cast iron aebleskiver pan. With this, the heat idistribution is such a relief.

These are very heavy and sturdy. They are great to use when you are simmering something on your range that would otherwise scorch. Wonderful for a low and slow pot of food.

Excellent for what I needed . I have a new cooktop and I primarily wanted something to be between the eye on the stove and a small cast iron fryer. And it works great. Just a little adjustment to the normal heat range. Disperses heat very heavily.

I have been using one for years, but my best friends had never heard of them, so I got one for her. She absolutely loves it. These are much nicer than the one I was using. Never have burnt food on the bottom of the pot when cooking when you use these!

Goid size, fits most of my pots. Bought these for delicate sauces and tagine cooking. Materials are good. Diffuser works well. I was concerned about the white plastic insert in the handle but it is far enough from the flame and the handle is detachable. My only reason for giving three stars and not five is that the diffuser comes with a blue plastic film to protect it. The film was applied before the edge crimped band was put on. This means that even if you cut the plastic off, there is some trapped under the metal edge banding. I spent 30 minutes trying to pick out bits of plastic film with a knife but there was still a quite a bit that I could not remove. I solved the issue by burning it off over a high flame with the extractor vent on full. I am sure it is now carbonized and inert. May be I will do the second one outside when I fire up my grill.

Ideal for simmering stews on a gas range but they should make bigger ones as I use big pots and they don't sit on these very well (they are too small). But they are heavy duty and work well. And I guess using them on an open gas flame you can't help being discolored after first use.

I used these for the first time last night. They smoked and nearly melted. I had to throw them in the trash. I think if I hadn’t been in the kitchen, it may not have ended well.

Had these for a few months and they are great - being stainless steel means they are easy to wash and there will be no rusting. Its a reasonable quality product for the cost.

Perfect for diffusing the heat from burners on propane camp stove burners, RV stove burners, and BBQ side burners. No more hot spots! These diffusers arrived with small, white plastic end caps on the handles, which have no place anywhere near a burner, so I immediately removed them before use. I'm guessing they are only there for shipping.

I use it cook rice. They are good. But the colour changed.

These are great as our gas stove is too hot on simmer so these disperse heat more evenly and food cooks better
