A good value
My kitchen range is due for replacement. Before I decide on the purchase of a major appliance, I need to know how well I like induction cooking.
I bought this little device so I could try electromagnetic induction cooking as an everyday experience. I'm very impressed at how well this cooktop performs. When cooking power is reduced, the response is immediate, as with a gas flame. The 1300 watt maximum is adequate for every need. A higher power burner may bring temps up more quickly but this is faster than gas or electric resistance.
The range of power and temperature selections is adequate for every use, with the possible exception of very low temp operations such as melting chocolate or butter (haven't tried it, so don't know; but 100W, the lowest setting, is high enough to brew a pot of espresso, so it might be too powerful to simply warm without cooking).
Cooks with a large collection of non-ferrous cookware may be disappointed but all my...
False advertisement - no temperature control - no low power
The description states 7 power settings (100-300-500-700-900-1100-1300w) and 13 keep warm settings (100-120-140-160-180-190-210-230-250-280-300-350-390-degree f). I tested this unit with 2 different power meters and found the actual power to be ( 530 - 650 - 770 - 900 - 1000 - 1100 - 1250w). Even the lowest setting of 100w ( 530 actual watts) boiled 3 quarts of water in a 4 quart pot significantly and 1 pint of water in a 1 quart pot violently. Setting the unit at 180
