Cusimax Hot Plate Electric Burner Single Burner Cast Iron hot plates for cooking Portable Burner 1500W with Adjustable Temperature Control Stainless Steel Non-Slip Rubber Feet, Upgraded Version

I needed to replace my stovetop and found this electric stovetop, which has been a great addition to my kitchen. It heats up quickly and maintains a constant temperature, ideal for cooking everything from simple things like coffee or soups to more elaborate dishes. It's perfect if you need an extra solution or if you have a small space like an office, studio, or camping. The size is compact, easy to store, and the surface is very easy to clean. Plus, the temperature controls are intuitive and responsive. In short: functional, practical, and well-priced. It delivers on everything it promises!

I bought this hot plate because my main stove is induction, and some of my cookware doesn’t work on it — especially if the bottom isn’t perfectly flat. With this hot plate, I can use any pan, even the ones that don’t work on induction. It’s small, lightweight, and easy to use. Heats up quickly and has two burners. Now I can even make pancakes, which didn’t work on my induction stove. It’s safe, doesn’t slip, and very easy to clean.

great little burner... only negative is the on off button is very easy to move so sometimes when you're wiping the counter it'll turn on, so I leave it unplugged. Also the sides of the hot plate get hot and stay hot for a while

Works very well! I was able to prepare my delicious soup outside without having my house smell like food. This will be perfect to travel around with..especially when you have kids.

Came quickly. Works great. Handy for small apartment.

Update 3/27/2022: Now it's dangerous. The thermostat knob occasionally doesn't work, and it fails CLOSED (meaning, it stays on 100% even when you set the knob to 2 out of 8). I thought my pancake burned prematurely, and when I took the pan (Teflon, which is dangerous when overheated above 400°F) off the burner, the cook plate was RED HOT. Why can't someone just make a good quality product anymore?Update 11/15/2019: The more I use this, the more concerned I get. First, it got so hot it melted the clear plastic button covering the little power bulb. I thought I'd just glue it back. But I noticed the entire casing gets REALLY HOT every time you use it. I measured 306° F (152° C) on the front face, and even 288° (142° C) on the silver knob you need to adjust the temperature! This is poor design. There should be some form of insulation between the heating element and the frame and knob of the hot plate. You can still adjust the temperature, you just don't want to grab and hold the knob.We've been very happy with this so far (as of 9/22/2019, we've had it about a month now). We use this at least 5 times a week instead of our gas stove so we can use our solar electricity instead of fossil fuel to steam eggs, make grilled cheese, saute or pan fry some dinner, etc. It's been very reliable so far. But there are a few things that we wish were improved (Manufacturer take note!). 1) There is an on/off knob on the left, and a temperature setting with an "off" position on the right. Why 2 "off" settings? Redundant. No need for left knob and it only causes confusion. 2) The "off" positions on EITHER knob don't even "click" into position, you just roll them to the end, and if your hand strikes the knob a little, it'll come back a bit from the off position. Make it CLICK off please!! 3) The left knob has an arrow on the top and if you rotate the knob so OFF is at the TOP, that knob is in the off position. The right knob has an arrow on the front of the burner to the left of the knob and if you roll that knob so the "off" position is on the LEFT side, that knob is off. If you have to have 2 knobs, BE CONSISTENT!! 4) The right knob has print on the face of the knob and the arrow to the left of the knob as described above. When you're standing over your pot, you have to kneel down so your eyes are at knob-level to read what setting you have. MAKE THE TEMPERATURE SCALE SO YOU CAN READ IT FROM STANDING POSITION! But even with these annoyances, which my wife and I both find minor, we love this burner and are only dinging it 1 star.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:High quality and it serves my temporary needs.

Love the look. Wished the burners wouldn’t shut off and on at certain times while cooking. Would have been better if I controlled when to shut them off or lower temp. Cooking can take longer because burners do shut off and on, on its own. I know it’s probably a safety thing but still a little hassle. But definitely like the look and size of the stove top counter. We just tried it yesterday so hopefully it was a good buy.
