2 reasons I'm glad I've got it. October 24, 2008
It fits the (more or less round) grille over the camp stove burner perfectly, and, almost makes that stove, which I'm not terribly happy with, work well. This is in the summer kitchen--outdoors.

It also does what it's supposed to do, that is, spread the heat so that there aren't hot spots in the pan. That's what I needed. The other is a bonus.

Somebody said they didn't think it was substantial enough. I don't agree. it doesn't seem likely to warp, partly because there is a rim. Which may not make it quite as nice for a large flat grille.

Performs as advertised! September 18, 2008

Purchased two 8" burner plates after moving into an apartment with a finicky gas stove. I could not adjust the burners to achieve a consistent simmer for soups, oatmeal, and other liquid-based foods. By placing the burner plate over the flame I was able to adjust the temperature to just about any heat level I needed. The burner plates are of excellent quality and a good value. Even my omelets are cooking with less heat and more evenly. You won't be disappointed!

Does the job June 18, 2008
The 8" plate fits up to 10" burners, too. It works as advertized. It delays heat up somewhat but once it gets going, it's fine.

We bought both the 6" and 8". It was impossible to turn the gas burners down in our Motor Home in order cook slowly or simmer. We used a diffuser for a long time until we discovered these. Wow! They are great! You can even stack them for even lower temps. They also retain heat for keeping food warm.

Burn-free, wonderfully even cooking. May 28, 2008

I can't believe it took me so long to discover and purchase these! I started out with two 8" plates, but I will now buy a 6" and a 10" or 12". I cook on a rather crappy 24" gas stove, with a flame that is hard to control finely, and with an odd assortment of cheap stainless steel and glass cookware, plus my cast iron skillet. This means that I'm often burning things, despite my caution.

No more with these plates. It's actually DIFFICULT to burn things now, and things cook more evenly throughout the pot/pan because the solid cast iron metal of the plates conducts and disperses heat wonderfully. They aren't as heavy as I expected - though they are definitely sturdy - and are also very easy to clean - I wipe them down with a sponge. They have the added benefit of cutting down on the cleaning of the stove, as they cover much of it. This is great because the plates are much easier to clean than the grooves surrounded a gas burner. If that isn't enough, they even improve the appearance of my stove!

I find these especially good for egg dishes, sauteeing, rice/pilaf grains, and slow cooking stews and soups, though I personally leave them on my stove and use them for types of cooking. I imagine they would improve anyone's cooking and I think every cook should own these. Considering the dramatic difference they make and how little they cost, they are an amazing value.
