If you want something done right, do it yourself.

IKEA has a bamboo laminated cutting board, that when cut to size for a range cover, the cutoff pieces give the right amount of lift for legs above the burners.  It is fool proof but not idiot proof - don't use the burners with the cutting board cover in place.

Glad you understood I was just bustin' on you.

The cutting board was like the first thing I did when we got the pod last July. I've done a lot since then, but it was like the most beneficial and easiest mod at that time.

A 'senior' member and you've just now seen this mod? How'd you miss it for so long?

I only joined 5 weeks ago.LOL The "senior" thing seems to be purely based on number of posts; and I have posted a lot between questions and my diary...and occasionally giving advice.

You can buy and install the folding metal cover the manufacturer has, or what most owners do, is get a cutting board of sufficient size, and add legs of sufficient length..
