Which of the two plates is stronger? Is the oval or black one?

The black is definitely stronger. It also has more texture which helps keep items from sliding off.

Black one is much stronger but smaller and bulkier. I use the oval thin shaped one inside my cellphone battery cover. Works perfectly. All though if you have a 5inch screen or higher these magnet plates aren't as strong to hold such a phone. I have 4'7 inch screen and its light and small. That might be max the magnets can handle even if you use either size plate on it.

Fx plate is heavy aluminum. The fx is all first quality, happy I bought it.

If you mean the regular black Oval with the "b" on it then yes. Also comes with 2 additional chordes!

I looked at both and I believe it is a matter of design, not function. The materials seem to be identical. In the time I have had these pans (I started with a saute pan to evaluate them) I have been very pleased both with the functionality and the design. This is an expensive investment, that from my early indicators will last many, many years.

It's the diameter of the hole of the plate...standard plates have about a 1" opening and olympic have a 2" opening

About 1/4 inch. This is not a critical issue as the plate is plenty strong. Really a good plate

No. Standard plates have a smaller hole than olympic size and are for a lighter skinnier bar or dumbbell. A quick google search of olympic vs. standard weights will give you some images to compare

They both have rounded edges. The oval shape make it more appropriate for bigger kids and adults though.

I used to have a round one but now I have the oval. Definitely liked the round better. Seems like the oval is distorted.

I am sorry but I purchased the lighter plates and do not know the answer to that question.Sorry

I've used the white Plate Holders in the microwave for maybe 5 minutes without issue - I assume the black holders are made of the same plastic as the white holders.

I'm not sure if I am interpreting what you are asking correctly. The black platform is heavyweight molded styrene. Obviously, the top is solid, but if you flip it over, it has a pattern of plastic (like a framework) that I imagine is to withstand more weight and prevent it from sagging. It's quite sturdy. If this isn't what you want to know, please ask again.

I am sorry I have no idea I only had mine a short time and it broke and I sent it back I do wish it held up I did love its size and the oval shape sorry I cannot help

The black one is much stronger! It almost comes out of the pool at times and the opening to pick up leaves is much bigger!

Why should I use another plate than the one who' s part of it and works perfect?

One has metal base plate the other is plastic, not sure which is which. The more expensive one has the metal.

I am traveling now but this answer is accurate Smaller than the average plate. One tray is larger than the other for storage purposes. Even the bigger of the too plates was too small for my dinner ware. Jenna M. answered on July 3, 2014
