where does it fit? Under the pan or over the pot/pan

Over the pan. I asked my wife the difference between the Calphajon and a the screen type, not much difference. The screens fall apart after some time. I think they make the Calphajon with a folding handle and I would recommend it. Takes up less room.

might not fit with all the pots and pans inside. it comes with some small cup/bowls and 2 flatware u could remove and might fit. if not u have to sacrifice a few pans

I do not, I am very careful not to put any thing hot on it, if I do I have a pot holder on the bottom. I do use the extra space while getting everything ready for cooking.

I have put hot pan on the block with a towel beneath and had no issues. Have not tried a hot pan with nothing under.

It will fit over the smaller burner, but not on the burner on the back of a standard stovetop. Hits the wall.

It is one inch larger all the way around the burner on our stove but that is supposed to be okay. We have ceramic top too. I used pot with no issue.

In my experiences, you can cover but it is not a must. I felt like when the smaller lid was on though, my boil over was much less likely. I did have it boil over once when I did not have the lid on... granted my pot was probably too full..

Yes but not like it was made for it. The one I use doesnt sit down completely on the pan however it fits well enough to not make a mess

If you are using this pan to cook traditional Paella, you don't cover the pan. The pan is not that deep so I would caution covering in general but if you really want to use a cover, any cover you already have for a larger stock pot or frying pan should fit and work or you can try tinfoil.

Small pots and pans are no problem. Something with approx. 14" diameter should also fit with no issues.

Yes, it fits under my cupboard just fine, BUT, the lid is wide and opens up so you'll have to pull it out from under the cupboard to use it.

I had a large cover on a pot that fit good enough. I read the cover that is suggested doesn't work so save your money.

It allows steam out but not like the pan is uncovered. It does restrict the amount of steam that boils off.

I have been covering the pan with disposable aluminum foil sheets to avoid clean up on my pan. I also use small foil pans that I bought at dollar tree and they fit perfectly.

I use under my element. I have not had any problem. I spilled a pie and just let it get firm and wiped it off. Just make sure it fits the bottom only.

I used 12" pan. the issue is there is not much space between the edge of pan and the burner, and because the burner is flat, all it takes is a little nudge and pot slides off. So it should be fine if you're careful.

My son hooks it over the side of the grill above one of the handles. He uses it all the time and really likes it.
