Great value for the money, dependable so far. Works great in my camper. Rubber leg stoppers are of reasonable medium quality.

It's easy to dial the heat down to keep basting sauces barely simmering. It heats quickly, temperature is easily regulatable, and it is compact enough for my small space.

The cooktop may manage to keep something warm but it’s completely useless for cooking, it takes forever to boil water or to sear or roast meat! The little thing is incapable of heating my water above a light simmer at its max setting. And just warm up...  Read More

Power rated at 1,000 watts i believe so won't exceed the capacity of most electrical systems.

Price


It is an incredible bargain at its sale price.


This little, inexpensive item was a life-saver.


I was a a little nervous about buying this product because it was so cheap.

Competitiveness


If you have a similar situation to us, or just need a decent cooktop for travel or camping, i can't reccommend this cooktop enough!

    Product was fair quality and cheaper than i expected when i ordered


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Even on highest setting the unit was not comparable to a range top


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Weird that the burner knobs have numbers instead of a temperature scales and weirder still that they are different temps for the big or small burner yeah sure energy over a bigger surface but also theres a typo so thats cool


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The breaker on our ovenstove top has gone out completely and due to a couple of other more serious issues cropping up at the same time we wont be able to get it fixed for a few months


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So after a few weeks of roughing it with instant pot meals only we decided to get a dedicated cooktop


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its also not as quick to heat as i was expecting it to be from the reviews but i think that ultimately depends on what youre used to cooking on


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However imo its the perfect trade off to not be able to drop food into the burner while cooking lol


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    So i bought this to help me out until i can get it fixed
