5.0 out of 5 stars Great little gadget!
Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2024
I've used this for just over a year. It has performed well beyond my wildest expectations for a $13 hotplate. I've been in a small apartment without a full sized stove for the last year and this was perfect. I've made burgers, fried steaks, made soup, lots of boiled water for pasta, but the most has been 3 scrambled eggs for breakfast. A little olive oil, the beaten eggs, cook until mostly done and then shut it off. The eggs finish cooking while it cools down & while toast is toasting. With a portable cooking surface, you don't want to treat it like a $500 appliance. Don't be stupid. Watch over it. Simple. The temperature control is mostly on or off even though it has a dial, but it heats fast and cooks well. I don't mind the little control of heat since when I cook something, it's cooked and done & and then shut it off! Make sure you wipe off anything spilled onto it after it cools down or before using it again as it's impossible to clean cooked-on gunk from under the coil.

Got this for a trip we took! The hotel we stayed at only had a microwave & mini fridge. We have toddlers & needed something convenient so we can make meals without constantly eating out. This electric stove top heats up within minutes! I made bacon & eggs & steak & zucchini. Literally was the same as my electric stove at home. I’m so happy I purchased this & for only $29.00, we brought food from home (pre-marinated & all ready to cook) & saved so much money not eating out. 10/10 recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great product and great price!
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2024
Our stove/oven died recently and I decided until we can buy a new one that a double burner hot plate just might suit our needs. I am so glad I bought this for my kitchen. The burners could be spaced further apart as others have mentioned but I am able to use my large skillet and a small pot/skillet at the same time. I have no problem boiling water and frying foods. The temperature setting gets plenty hot for me. I do a lot of from scratch cooking. I am a bit clumsy and uncoordinated so I have to be careful because it’s easy to knock your pot/pan off these burners. Also if the bottom of your pots/pans are warped in any way and not flat on the bottom you will have issues keeping them on these burners, in my opinion. So just be aware of that. This product is very easy to keep clean and is lightweight. Making it very easy to move.
I place mine on a heat resistant mat while in use just for safety because the entire thing does get hot. Highly recommend you do the same.

This is the best burner to turn charcoals on with. I’ve had more expensive brand ones but this one not only lasts longer that others, it’s less expensive and those coals light up fast.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent Countertop Burner with Some Drawbacks
Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024
On the positive side, the burner heats up relatively quickly and provides adequate temperature control. It's easy to adjust the heat level using the temperature control knob, allowing for precise cooking.

The design is compact and lightweight, making it convenient for small spaces or as an extra burner for cooking on the go. It's also easy to clean, with a smooth surface that wipes down effortlessly after use.

However, there are a couple of drawbacks. Firstly, the coil burner can be uneven in heating, especially with larger pots or pans. This can lead to uneven cooking results, which may not be ideal for more delicate dishes.

Secondly, the build quality feels a bit flimsy. The burner doesn't feel as durable or robust as some other models I've used in the past. This raises concerns about its long-term durability and reliability, especially with frequent use.

Best $12 I've spent in a while. We are remodeling our kitchen and needed a hot plate. It takes a little while to boil water but it works well enough.
