SimmerMat Heat Diffuser - Flame Diffuser Stove Cover Ring - Fire Diffuser for Any Type of Electric or Gas Stove - Dishwasher Safe Stove Top Cover - Steel Plates for Simmering and Slow Cooking - 1 Pack

YES IT WORKS PERFECTLY! I have always had problems with things that have to cook on the stove a long time getting scorched, even putting it on the tiny burner and removing the lid and stirring every 5 minutes, which is tough when it has to cook 4 or 5 hours, and most of the time it still scorched. I just used this diffuser on a big pot of Italian Sunday gravy - and it worked perfectly! I followed the directions on the package exactly - Got the food prepared and boiling on another regular sized burner, then put this diffuser on that tiny smallest burner, moved the pot over to it, and then turned it on to low and it continued slow boiling for hours without scorching. Of course you still have to stir, but only a normal amount, maybe every 20 minutes or so depending on what you are cooking. I have always moved the pot to the tiny burner in the past but it always still scorched. But now with this diffuser, a 4-5 hour slow boil of Italian gravy with no scorching! Wish I had known these things existed years ago!

Where has this thing been all my life? It works perfectly! I cook with CI on a gas stove.

These simmer mats are wonderful. I cook on a fine gas range and love it. Every time I cook stews, chili, sauces, etc. They would stick to the bottom of my saucepan and scorch. A sweet little lady from Alaska recommended the simmer mat. Honestly, I didn't think it would work. But, when I cooked a stew a few days after receiving my first simmer mat, I found out for myself. When I normally reduce the heat to simmer, I slid the simmer mat under my saucepan and let it simmer over an hour. There was absolutely no scorching in the bottom. They are a great value for the $$ i paid.

It actually keeps your finished sauce, or whatever you are cooking, warm. Comes in handy so your food doesnt burn.

I needed this because of a new gas range that burns SO hot, it'll boil liquid even on low, so this diffuser did the trick and allows me to actually simmer when a dish calls for simmering. Sturdy and easy to use, clean and store

No more burned food/sauces!

Maybe it was operator error (me), but I never could get this to work as expected. And I was afraid it might scratch my cooktop.

Our LG Range has burner setting to high end we can’t adjust it down any further. This is the perfect answer and if also looks nice just sitting on the Range where we placed it. Highly Recommend

El Difusor de calor me permite usar sartenes y cacerolas de mayor tamaño al quemador de la parrilla de Vitrocerámica. Tarda en calentar, pero una vez que empiezan a hervir los alimentos, se puede bajar la temperatura al mínimo y continúan hirviendo, lo cual permite un buen ahorro de energía. No se queman, no se pegan y no se resecan.

Great product, works as advertised.

Best kitchen gadget I've bought in a long time. Now indispensable. No more burnt pans; & soups/ stews etc simmer gently while I wash up/ read a book. Saves all that lingering over a hot stove, adjusting the flame, scraping the bottom of the pan...Great price too, and easy to keep pristine.

I bought this simmer ring because I have trouble when trying to simmer a stew or soup, I saw this product and thought I would give a go. I am amazed at the difference it makes, and while I'm not sure that my stew simmered that much slower, it certainly seems to distribute the flame of gas more evenly, and I don't have the stew sticking to bottom of the pot like before. I have used it on my gas cooktop and also the wood stove, works great on both. Do read the instructions because it needs to placed on different sides depending on the surface you are cooking with. I do not hesitate in recommending this product. Definitely 5 stars :)

ce diffuseur de chaleur prend la température très vite et il la perd aussi vite ... c'est extrêment important de plus il est lèger, oui je le recommande il répond bien à ce que je cherchais merci
