If you're cooking a delicate sauce, or melting chocolate, it is imperative to use a really low and gentle heat. This diffuser adds a layer of protection between the burner and the bottom of the pan, yet it perforations do allow heat to get through.

Review: It diffuses! - It does what it says it does. I have now used this several times with a tagine on a glass - top stove and it worked! No tagine were exploded to date, thanks to my handy dandy diffuser! Note: you will want to wash and dry this bad boy first, as the instructions indicate. Being a man, I of course did not read the instructions prior to using and as a result turned my tiny apartment kitchen into John Carpenter's The Fog set....except it wasn't fog.....and it stank.....and lot. I bought 2, and followed the instructions on dash 2 Nad have not had the same problem Note 2: they do discolor quite a bit....wondering what the lifetime is going to be. Will update if one goes south on me structurally within the next 6 months
Review: Works wonderfully under my tajine (Moroccan clay stew pot)! :) - I bought this heat diffuser because it was suggested to use one with the tajine (Moroccan clay stew pot) I ordered the same day, on the electric stove (spiral coil). It works really well for that purpose, and my tajine did not crack. A few reviewers complained about the handle getting too hot to touch / smoking / making a bad smell. In my experience, I had no problem whatsoever, and none of this happened: the diffuser did not stink, smoke, nor got too hot to the touch (the wooden part, that is, as the metal part does get hot). Of course, I used the diffuser on medium low temperature. It is not intended to be used on high temperature (at least with a tajine), so I suspect that the users who had the problems above did use the diffuser with too high a heat setting. I am delighted I bought this Norpro heat diffuser, as it protects my tajine, helps the cooking to be even, and does the job nicely. So I would buy another one if I get another tajine, or need a replacement down the line. It is not expensive, and protects your cooking equipment, so I suggest that you buy one too!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ so it directs a good deal of heat up the sides of the kettle ...
*by G***H on December 15, 2014*

I bought this diffuser to use under a glass tea kettle atop a gas range. A person reviewing the kettle said the handle of the kettle would melt without one of these. Well, that wasn't quite true. This diffuser does exactly what it is supposed to do. It diffuses the heat. It also happens to be larger in diameter than the glass kettle, so it directs a good deal of heat up the sides of the kettle and to the handle. The only time I ever burned my hand on the handle of the kettle was when I used this diffuser with it. That said, this is actually a great, simple device. If you are cooking something on very low heat (like a pot of rice that is simmering to absorb water), this diffuser will keep the rice from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot. Likewise, when cooking something like spaghetti sauce or chili. Unless stirred constantly, those foods can burn and stick to the bottom of the pot. Well, not if you use this device! It spreads the heat around nicely. It is the same thing with a frying pan. Sometimes you want a larger heat source than your range can provide, or a gentler one. This is all you need to accomplish that. You can use this on an induction, gas, or electric cook top. Hand washing is recommended. It will discolor from the heat of a burner, but that won't affect its usefulness. So...I bought this based on a review for a totally different reason. It didn't work for that purpose. But I discovered a whole lot of things this diffuser makes cooking easier. I bought it by mistake, and I am really glad I did.
