Works wonderfully
October 7, 2007 heatherfrom Mountain Town, MT
"We use these on a fairly old, but high BTU gas range and love them. They really do control the heat for slow simmer things like rice, etc. I would highly recommend. Enjoy."

Great for Older Stoves
October 27, 2008 SIcookfrom Osceola Mills, PA
"If you have an older gas stove that lacks a simmer burner, this simmer mat is for you. Can't get your burner low enough for delicate simmering or warming? This mat allows a great deal of low heat control. Works exactly as advertised on my gas stove."

"This product is wonderful. I am an old time gardner.I used this product to make pear preserves. The preserves cooked for 4 hours and did not stick. I love this product so much I purchased my mother one."

A cook's best friend!
September 22, 2008 shellbellfrom Trinidad, CO
"I have a gas stove and my small burner was still to high for simmering. After burning sauces, rice, chili, you name it, I sought out a simmer plate! I finally found one in Chefs Catalog and ordered it right away. I now feel confident enough to leave my favorite dishes on the stove for hours until they are cooked to perfection! It also works great when we are making hot chocolate on the stove top!"

Good for bad stoves
March 21, 2008 crusherfrom maryland
"Decent tool to have if you have a gas stove or a stove that heats very unevenly. If you ever burned a sauce on a gas stove because the middle of the pot is getting hit by the low flame and the outer parts of the pot isn't, you'll get some good use out of the simmerMat. It takes longer than usually to find a good heat setting for simmer though because the heat needs to travel throughout the mat then to the pot. That gets kind of annoying. Can't really see a need for it with electric or ceramic tops though since they already have even coverage of heat."

Best tool in the kitchen
October 29, 2007 midgetfrom Fort Worth, Texas
"I use this simmer mat all the time! Even low, on my samllest burner, is sometimes too hot and this simmer mat keeps things simmering with no scorching or burned on food. It really works and I highly recomend it!"
