For you, that's good. My replacement schedule was something like two (2) weeks ;). mouser's gadget is much more cost effective for me. Different usages affect utility & efficiencies :huh:.

Are you taking into account the cost of money, since you spent all $20 up front instead of over a couple decades for the foil? Just think of all the interest that amortized $20 could have earned.

This is an awful lot of discussion over something pretty inconsequential :P. Actually, insofar as monetary values, I've saved money, according to inflation estimates.
However, there's a mostly non-monetary benefit. I'm an old cripple, so the less often I have to bend down to the base of the oven the better - for me. For normal healthy bodies, there's still a lot less bending/strain. Not all benefits are monetary in nature, nor is financial return necessarily a significant factor. You might consider the Feng Shui of ovens :P as well as the mental stress reduction of knowing you have bought a product that will lessen your overall effort(s). There's more, but I'm outa here on this one :-\ :-* :P.

Yeah - my comment was intended as a poke in the ribs (I don't use smileys much, so I forgot to add one).

Let's move onto something else food related then :)
Always handy, the Titanium is even better.
