I just cooked a batch of Salsa using this heat diffuser on my gas stove top. I used a 14 quart stainless steel pot on top of the diffuser to cook the salsa. Every year I have used this stainless steel pot to make salsa, it would burn my salsa where the flame hit the bottom of the pot. Not this year. NO burnt salsa on the bottom using the heat diffuser.This works good on regular pots. I have a 15 & 30 quart pots for sauce I might have to drill out the rivwt on the handle, I don't need the handle anyway.does not transfer heat fast enoughHeats fast and evenly.Product arrived in good condition; purchased to protect glass cooktop from iron cookware. On first use it discolored from shiny stainless steel to a coppery color (on both sides). Don't think this will affect use or effectiveness, but curious. "Stay cool" handle doesn't. Otherwise overall happy with price and function.I bought it but it didn't work. It took a long time to heat the water and it smelled burnt.I thought all the pans we had would work with our new induction stove. Well, after a week we found a couple of stragglers that were aluminum and special pans to make avelskivers and some other special pan.Bought this, tried it out and works fantastic!Me agrado y es muy útil para utilizar las ollas o sartenes que no son para estufa de inducciónInitially over the moon as I managed to make my coffee with the espresso maker I had bought via Amazon that claimed to be for induction hobs and wasn't. However, since that first time of use, my hob switches off claiming an error whenever I try to use the converting plate. You can hear the fan going into overtime and the hob cutting in and out. Not sure if its because the size of plate is wider than my induction hob ring or if its a faulty product. I've started the returns process.Value for moneyVery good for heat dissipation on a small hob ring.Used twice and 2nd time got so hot, turned black and started smoking virtually blew my hob up. Clearly not save and returningDestroying my hob
