Lazy K Induction Cooktop Mat - Silicone Fiberglass Scratch Protector - for Magnetic Stove - Non Slip Pads to Prevent Pots from Sliding During Cooking_ Black (11inches)

I recently got a new induction stove and looked at the shiny, perfect surface.I admired it.I touched it.I wiped off the fingerprint because man, it is NOT fingerprint resistant.I looked nervously at my collection of cast iron cookware, and back at the stove, channeled my best Gandalf and exclaimed, "YOU SHALL NOT SCRATCH"So here we are. I bought a set of these Lazy K cooktop mats, 3 of them in two sizes. I still need a fourth for the smallest element but I couldn't find a matching one in that size. Knowing how good these mats are now that I've used them for a couple of months, I'll be ordering another small one and just centering it over the element. It'll be too big but I trust this product now.I've tried to pay attention to the instructions saying that you shouldn't use these with the heat on high for an extended period. "Extended period" is a bit vague, but I've had the stove on max power for several minutes while boiling a pot of water and there were no ill-effects. So I'm pretty convinced that I don't need to be overly cautious with these.I expect that there's probably a small difference in heating time when using these mats, primarily because you're increasing the distance between the pan and the magnetic element by putting the mat between them. I haven't run any comparisons yet, but I don't think the difference has been noticeable to me.Cleaning them is pretty simple, a quick scrub with a brush and a little dish soap does the trick, or if I'm about to run the dishwasher I'll just throw them in there and they come out perfect.The radial lines in the design are slightly raised, which allows a small amount of airflow on either side and helps with minimizing the heat radiating back into the stove. It seems to work well, the stove surface is noticeably cooler right after removing a pan. It's still hot, but less likely to burn, and the surface is easily touchable after less than a minute. The mats leave no permanent marks. And they work great as a trivet when you need one quickly.I love these mats, they're an excellent idea for anyone that loves cast iron but doesn't want to mess up their glass induction top.

This is a must have for induction stove tops. I've had my induction stove and these covers for a year now and my glass stove top looks brand new still, not a scratch on it. These covers protect the glass perfectly, are the easiest thing to clean, and very temperature resistant and durable. They do not impede the function on the induction stove, they help protect the glass from some of the heat and protect from scratches. Expensive initial cost but in the long run they are a must have. We are not minimal stove use people at my house. We use the stove on average 3 times a day, probably a lot more, and these covers are in the same condition as when I bought them, and so is my expensive stove top. We also bought another less expensive brand but it didn't compare.

The mats do not work on small appliances. Ordered 2 however 4 were sent. So please I would like to return 2 pieces. Thanks in advance

No he frito cosas al sartén, pero después de cocinar durante varias horas no le ha pasado nada.
