Gas hob,advice please on pan supports

littlereddevil

I am about to buy a new gas hob (having just moved from an all electric house)
Please can anyone advise which pan supports are the best ie cast iron,enamel , stainless steel
thankyou

Personally I'd go for cast iron. It's hard wearing & easy to clean. Enamel can chip if something heavy is dropped on it & stainless steel can be laborious to keep nice & shiny. If not well looked after it will start to blacken in places.

Agree, cast iron every time, be careful though when placing them back on the hob after cleaning, as they have scratched my stainless steel hob.

I strongly recommend you try one of your pans on the hob before you buy.....people may look at you a little strange but its important to make sure your pans dont tip off. I didnt do this and have struggled for 4 years with pan supports that wont hold my pans properly. they tip off as they have quite solid handles and its a pain in the b*m as I have spilt milk and gravey so many times.:mad:
honestly its worth trying
