Depends on the oven. We have a Samsung duo door. And trying to cook
cookies in the small cavity, they get overdone on one side. I think you
need a bigger volume to spread out the heat.

That's what we have. I don't like the Samsung because the burners on top are too hot. Even with the
dial on the lowest setting, it's very hard to get something to simmer.

I have that problem with my slick top Whirlpool but only on the small
burners. The big ones will run very low. Since I seldom simmer stuff
in a small pot it is not really a problem.


The big burners on mine are as bad as the small ones. They're all too damn hot.


I have actually been pretty happy with the Whirlpool cook top and I
got the inside Centex price on it (like 100 bucks) NIB.


When we redid the kitchen, we replaced the crappy GE gastop with a
KitchenAid with five burners, all of which seem to "simmer" a pot
properly. The GE was too hot on each of its four burners to simmer.
Fortunately, the twin GE ovens we still have work properly. One of them
is a convection oven, too, but I've never tried that feature.
