My wife bought black drip pans for the burner elements on our electric
stove. It seems like the black pans would reflect less heat back up into the
pot being heated and allow more to be lost. Isn't this why most drip pans
are bright metallic / chrome plated?

Thanks,
Bob

I buy the black ones to help my wife. My wife treats me like a
Greek god.............................................

She always gives me burnt offerings.

How about black pans that are coated with a Teflon like material? I had the
shiny ones, replaced them about every 3 months because they don't stay
shiny. You want to buy pans every couple of months then go with the shiny
ones, you want to put out money only once go with these. (18 months and
still looking great)

The answer to your question is YES. Period. Then do whatever your
wife says. Or you could do like 90 percent of us, cover the pan with
aluminum foil and replace the foil when it gets dripped on.
