I have a flat top range. Can you use a double griddle pan on it? My poor husband searched everywhere to get me one for Christmas. The one he bought didn't work. Anyone have any suggestions? I would love both griddle and grill, but would settle for just the griddle. We need to make more than four pancakes at a time !

what about an electric one? they heat much more evenly than any I've seen that go on the stove (there's always that cool spot between burners)

Jennifer,
I have an electric griddle that is huge! This one is similar, but not quite the same. http://www.amazon.com/Presto-07045-Family-Size-Cool-Touch-El ectric/dp/B0009IAW9M/sr=1-14/qid=1168459574/ref=sr_1_14/002- 3777872-9550413?ie=UTF8&s=kitchen
I put in on my stove or counter and can easily do a dozen regular pancakes, or a ton of silver dollar ones. I like the tilt feature so grease can run off when you cook bacon.
Just make sure you have a deep enough counter or stove, and somewhere to store it!
Hope that helps.

I have this one. Not sure if it's what your looking for, but I lay it across my flat top range (covers two burners)and I use it for pancakes, quesidillas (sp?) and tortillas. Works well, but I prefer my electric griddle too as I can get 6 pancakes on it at once as opposed to only 2.

I have the same thing Maddie has, and love it. I do make 6 pancakes on it though, but probably because they're little ones:)

Thank you to everyone for your advise. My birthday is in a couple weeks, so I'm going to have my husband read the posts and make a decision. I know he will be greatful!

I agree - go electric. My mother bought us the one that spans two burners but it warped and the batter runs. Also heats unevenly.
