disappointed - my new review

Well made, easy to clean and use. But did not work well on my Whirlpool induction stove. Tried to make coffee in a glass percolator, after 20 minutes water was still not boiling, diffuser got too hot and the stove gave an error message. This would probably work if you were cooking some eggs, but does not work if you need to boil water.FYI on my stove with a good induction pan 2-3 cups of water will be boiling in a few seconds; 2 quarts will be boiling in 2-3 minutes; about 2 minutes to make…

Pros
  • Much more effective than expected.
Cons
  • …. after a couple of months

This thing just plain doesn’t work.

I usually don’t write negative reviews, but as everyone else says about this item, it just does not get hot enough to heat anything at all.In order to try and cook a simple egg, it simply would not get the egg pan hot enough. I tried turning the induction burner to full and just like everyone else’s, it overheated and shut itself off.Waste of money.

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • The plate may get extremely hot during use, creating a potential hazard if not handled carefully

Great Product on my review.

Didn't even know this existed. But, when I saw it, I needed it. My intentions were to buy a new set of pot and pans for my induction cooktop as none were compatible. So, when I saw this, I bought it with great expectations. It works exactly like they said it would and now I don't have to buy a new set of pans. In fact, it works beautifully. I couldn't be more pleased.

Pros
  • Makes cooking and simmering on a small gas burner very uniform without burning.
Cons
  • May emit a loud or unbearable noise during use

These DO NOT make your pans work with induction cooking!

These DO NOT make your pans work as induction. They help heat a little but not even close to what they advertise. Unfortunately I missed the return window or I would have returns them.

Pros
  • It works great
Cons
  • The adapter may not be easy to clean, especially if food or liquids are spilled during use

Use with my NuWave on my review.

When I bought my NuWaves (two of them, small and larger to replace my old stove) I had to get these because the NuWaves work on magnetics and my pans were aluminum. They are a little slow to heat up but work well. They are sturdy and still look like new.I ended up buying new pots and pans but still have issues sometimes, so I just put the diffuser under them.

Pros
  • Cookware Accessories
Cons
  • The adapter may be difficult to find replacement parts for, potentially rendering it unusable

Son is thrilled for my opinion

Got this for my son because he recently purchased a new smooth surface range. At the time, he didn't realize that it requires cookware with a smooth flat bottom made of steel. Of course, he didn't have any, so absolutely hated the stove. I found this and decided to see if it would help him. He loves it. It works perfectly on the stove, and he doesn't need to buy all new cookware. He still doesn't like the cooktop, but hates it less than he did before. At least he can use it now.

Pros
  • Totally impressed with quality, and the protection it gives my new glass top stove !
Cons
  • The adapter may not be as durable as other cooking accessories on the market

Works fine - my new review

Although it is most effective to use pans designed for induction heating, it is useful to have this device for occasions when a non-induction pan must be used. This worked as it was supposed to and I like the integrated handle, even though it may interfere with very large pans. This is not a common issue and it is preferable to having to use separate tongs or other devices to life or move the adapter plate.

Pros
  • Bought by mistake, returned.
Cons
  • May not work as effectively with certain types of cookware, reducing its overall usefulness

RAINBEAN 9.45Inch Heat Diffuser, stainless steal

This diffuser is nice to have so you are able to use "any" pan on an induction cooktop. However, it does take longer for your pan too heat up, when using the diffuser.

Pros
  • Work good
Cons
  • The adapter may interfere with other pots and pans on your stove, limiting your overall cooking options

Disappointing on my review.

This is supposed to work on an induction oven. I decided to make rice and it literally took 2 hours to cook. The water didn’t even boil. Not worth it.

Pros
  • Works great!
Cons
  • The adapter may not be compatible with all types of induction cooktops

Well made and handle folds for compact

I have a countertop induction single burner. I have 2 sets of cookware one does not work on induction, the other set does, but if the pan sides are slanted it will not work, only on those pans with straight sides. I purchased this adapter plate for use with both sets. I am happy to say it does work with the set that doesn't work on the induction. I just assume that it will with one with slanted sides. You get the same induction speed when cooking. I like the fact that the handle folds up out of

Pros
  • Home & Kitchen
Cons
  • May require additional tools or instructions to properly install and use

AWFUL, CHEAP! for my opinion

This product deserves zero stars!I bought this product a few months ago and the item has split! Also, from day 1 the item can never be never be cleaned and it always looked dirty. See pictures.

Pros
  • Works fine, only issue is not easy to clean and it made noise sometimes when getting heat up
Cons
  • consume mucha enerrgía antes de calentar los elementos que les pongan encima

Quality product: my feedback

It is a quality product, looks good and does a good job. It makes simmering on a gas stove very uniform and easy. The simmer ring plate may warp or become deformed with repeated use.

Pros
  • great for iron skillets on glass top stove
Cons
  • The simmer ring plate may warp or become deformed with repeated use

I love this product. I Purchased the Rainbean 9.25 inch induction cooktop diffuser - primarily to make Cuban coffee in an aluminum 3-cup coffee maker. I have a 4-year old Nuwave Pro induction cooktop. It is faster and much more efficient than an electric stove but like all induction cooktop‘s will not work with aluminum pots, pans, etc. So, now I can use the aluminum Cuban coffee pot with my Nuwave pro cooktop using this new induction cooktop diffuser. I have read reviews about induction…

Pros
  • Evenly warmed my Chamba Pot.Well worth it!
Cons
  • The plate may slide around on your stove, creating a potential safety hazard

Great for glass top stoves

My wife didn't like using cast iron or, for that matter, any of out cookware on our glass top stove. Now, with this, heat is even and doesn't scratch the top. A great little product.

Pros
  • It’s Great,Love it, thanks
Cons
  • The adapter may become damaged or bent during transport or storage

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It does not work even on old unused pans.

The claims on this product is false! It loses too much heat.Rainbean and other companies should not hide the fact on the heat loss on their product description. I tested this on my new DuxTop 9600LS on boil mode. It didn't even start boiling passed 10 mins. Induction-ready cookware whether they are aluminum and other non-magnetic materials, a steel plate is added at the bottom flat surface area by electrically fusing them together. Heat temperature is transferred very efficiently. Avoid this…

Pros
  • This lets my wife use her espresso pot on our new induction range. She says it does the job.
Cons
  • The adapter may wear down or become unusable over time, requiring replacement

The diffuser actually split while in use!

Was cooking on medium-low heat when the diffuser made a popping noise and then the top and bottom split from the center of the diffuser! I didn’t even realize that it was three pieces of metal put together; I thought that it was a single disc of metal. Do not waste your money on this product. Less than two months of occasional use and I landed up throwing it away.

Pros
  • wonderful product, very much needed for a good simmer !!!
Cons
  • The adapter may be difficult to attach to your stove or Moka pot

Separates and melts

Both one I bought separated snd mekted aluminum all over stove. When I moved it to the sink, the molten aluminum dripped down ruining the intake water hose to the dishwasher. This should be immediately removed from sales.

Pros
  • Takes a little longer to cook with aluminum but I like that it is controlled better that way
Cons
  • The plate may cause food to stick or burn if not used properly

Not a Rainbean. in my review

I originally ordered a Rainbean. It was delivered slightly damaged, so I returned it and exchanged it for a new one. The replacement I received was not a Rainbean. Replacement has a different handle and secured in a different manner. It does not seem to be as sturdy as the original.

Pros
  • I like that I can now use a pan I bought by mistake that was not compatible with induction cooking
Cons
  • The plate may emit a strong odor during use that is unpleasant or potentially harmful

DO NOT BUY! on my review.

Do not buy this piece of crap! It is two pieces of metal with aluminum sandwiched in between. The aluminum melted out and ruined my brand new stovetop!

Pros
  • Product exactly as described, I bought it for my mom, she loves it. It is a magical diffuser.
Cons
  • The adapter may be too small for certain types of Moka pots, reducing its overall efficiency

Very Handy in my review

Item is just as advertised. I’ve used it under my cast iron while cooking on a glass-top stove, and it worked like a charm. Annoying to clean and stains like the dickens, but that just adds character, right?

Pros
  • Heat Diffuser for Gas Stove
Cons
  • The adapter may not work as effectively with certain types of gas stoves or Moka pots
