Product review (5 stars): No More Gap Slopovers!
What a terrific gizmo this is! Day one I managed to slop over half a pot of soup and not a single drop went down into the stove gap abyss. The stovetop and adjoining countertop were a mess. After cleaning up my spill, I crossed my fingers, removed the gap seal and pulled out the stove - just to be sure - and it did exactly what it was designed to do. Hurray! Sure wish I'd discovered these sooner as I am a real klutz in the kitchen.

The pair of gap seals arrive flat in a long box, so you don't have to steam them or take any measures to flatten them back out after shipping. Their silicone construction makes them tough enough for using near the burner, and they easily wash up with a little soap and water. They fit nicely between the control panel on the stove to the front of the stovetop and are very unobtrusive in appearance. I was afraid they would look like I had duct-taped the seam, but, happily, that was not the case. Mine were in place for several days before my very observant hubby even noticed them.

Sure glad that I invested in these little timesavers - today's disaster was a whipped up raw egg that landed right on top of the gap seal.  Again, not a bit went into the gap. YAY!
