Heh. The covers come in sets of four. My cooktop has only two burners. So I can make the mistake more than once, without ruining an entire set. *grins*
In fact, I did it just last week. I'd gotten the big saute pan out from the lower cabinet and plopped it up onto a burner while I fished out its lid. Then I straightened up and turned on the burner without thinking or noticing that the pan was on top of the cover, completely concealing it. Oops! But I was standing close enough that I whiffed the tell-tale Eau de Toasted Burner Cover just in time to rescue everything. Barely singed on the underside; didn't even darken the paint on the top. But sheesh....
I'm avidly following your remodeling posts. It's going to be flat gorgeous. I envy you the gas cooktop, too. Heck, I envy anyone who's got more than two dinky burners of any type! Who ever thought these doofy JennAire "indoor grills" were wunder-kitchen equipment was nuts.
