I bought this Nambu Tekki trivet for family dinners, and it’s been a solid addition to my table. The cast iron feels substantial and heats evenly, protecting my wooden surfaces perfectly. While it’s a bit pricey at $89, the craftsmanship from Iwate is evident. I even played some Bryan Adams during my first use—made the meal extra memorable! Just wish it were slightly larger for bigger pots.
