Infrared Ceramic Single Burner, 1200W Electric Countertop Hot Plate with Black Crystalline Glass, Portable Stainless Steel Cooktop for Home, Office, or Dorm Use, Black BGI301GB

Accurate product, Works great, heats up quick, easy to use and move to any location. Would purchase again.

Honestly... just straight up terrible. I hate that I spent hours reading reviews looking for different hot plates, and finally deciding on one, and this being the one I chose. All these cheap ceramic burners will shatter, this one shattered after a month. Then I returned it, and the replacement just shattered again after only a month. The heat level is fine, it works great otherwise, it just shatters over and over. I owned a single burner coil from OVENTE as well and the coils died in 2 months. The brand is pretty awful. The reality is, if you need something reliable, go induction if you can. Pick up some induction ready pots and pans second hand and it'll be an infinitely better experience than buying these over and over. Waste of money.

I've tried a lot. Like A LOT of hot plates. As someone living without a kitchen and loves to cook, it has been a STRUGGLE. Now originally, I took everyone's advice online. "You should use an induction cooktop!" but no. Absolutely not. I've tried two different models of induction, and all of them suck. They're loud, small coil diameter, and don't heat up your pan evenly. Plus, you can't really toss foods in the pan since they auto turn off. Induction rant aside, this is pretty much one of the best options that you have for a single burner IMO. It has enough power to be able to boil water/pasta in an acceptable amount of time (with the lid on it was like 5 minutes for me). It's also pretty easy to clean, and the base of the hotplate stays cool while in use (I do recommend using a cutting board/mat underneath it though). Truthfully, I'm not too big of a fan of the super sleek full glass design. It looks nice, yes, but your pan absolutely slips and slides, so I'd use handled pots whenever using this cooktop. The very top layer of glass has also started to chip I think? Not really chip, but rub away. It's either that, or burn scars like any infrared cooktop. Regardless. Price-to-effectiveness ratio, this is literally one of the best options on the market. I haven't tried the double burner option, only the 1200W, but I think it's worth it. Ngl, temperature control is a bit iffy though. Not exactly fine tuned.

The heating element is too small, and only heats up the center of pans. My nice stainless pans, even cast iron pans only heat in the middle. It's unusable to me. I expected it to be like a stove/oven that I had that used the same technology, but I can't use this.

This plate worked wonders for packing in a suitcase and using in a hotel for Mexico for a week! Worked awesome to make anything on. And the burner adjust to several settings making it easy to boil or simmer.

Works well with my Moka pot. Thermostat can be set low like I like to keep it coming straight through the pot with minimal sputtering and no burning of the coffee. My only detraction is the dial seems not so secure on the rheostat control.

Bonita y cocina super rápido

DO NOT BUY. Only worked for 6 weeks. Just stopped cutting on. Unfortunately it was after the 30 day return policy. I emailed the company no response!!! Save your money!!!!
