The media could not be loaded. We bought this after testing an induction cooktop at a friend's house and let me tell you, this does not disappoint! We have absolutely loved this product. The temperature is exact and helps keep your food at just the right heat. It heats very quickly and I am so impressed with how fast I can boil a pot of water! It takes a minute to boil water instead of your normal 3-5 minutes on a ceramic of electric stove. It's even faster than a gas stove (which has been my preference after taking a culinary class).The size is perfect for a large Dutch oven or a 12" pan. We took it camping with us and oh my goodness! It completely changed how I will camp in the future. Making meals was a breeze and I loved being able to pull it out and cook so many different things anywhere. I will say that cooking outside with a breeze does make it loose heat quickly, but when using it inside we don't have this problem.The base is very stable. I used it on a normal countertop and also on outside picnic tables as well as on top of a plastic tote and it always felt great. It doesn't move or shift but stays put. I love that the bottom does not get hot so you can use it on many surfaces.When you turn it on, you can hear a distinct fan noise, but it isn't loud or overbearing. It's noticable but not distracting. I don't mind it at all.Clean up is a breeze and wipes down really well. Even butter and grease splashes wipe down pretty easily.Overall I am very pleased with this product and I would 10/10 recommend it.

I've only used this induction burner a few times since its arrival, but that's enough to convince me of its worth. I'm a serious home chef who has learned the hard way just how important temperature control is with just about any kind of stovetop cooking, especially wok cooking. I've got a good gas stove, but it's still difficult for me to get precise temp control, so I monitor temps with an infrared thermometer. I still end up chasing my ideal temps by turning up/down the gas burners. That should be a thing of the past since I can now simply punch in any temp I want. I was amazed at how fast my carbon steel wok came up to smoking temperature before my last stir fry. Precise temp control is the one thing I've been missing in my cooking and I've ruined more dishes than I care to admit. Hopefully, those failures will now be a thing of the past.When I was shopping for an induction burner I noticed the larger the diameter of the magnetic surface the more expensive the burner. This one has a 7 inch active surface, which is definitely an upgrade. The bigger the surface the quicker the pan will heat up. The controls are intuitive and simple to use, so no worries there. The glass surface is shatter resistant, but I would still take care to be gentle. This is my first induction burner and I'm very glad I've taken the plunge into a new form of cooking technology.

This Nuwave Pic Hold Pro precision induction cooktop is the best! Setting exact cooking temperatures, better than electric or gas! From low 100 degrees to sear at 575 degrees, you can accurately cook any dish. Easy to understand laminated instructions. The absolute best is the ability to choose how many watts to use; 700w, 900w or 1500w. If you are boondocking (camping) and using solar, this is a simple answer to a difficult problem. We use solar at home and realize that our smallest electric burner on our stove uses 2,000w! This induction cooktop is beyond perfect. And, the icing on the cake, they included and 87 page cookbook with great recipes.

I tested this burner for one month while idling my 4 stove top convection burners and received my lowest electric bill in 11 years. In addition to the cost savings I like how even it cooks. The temperature is matched even in the sides of the pot. Cool to stand next to and cook for hours. Precision allows me to set a low boil and walk away knowing it will maintain. Built in timer that shuts off the device and lets you know your food is ready. Wow, I love this and if I need more burners this is the way Im going.

I really like how well this cooktop Cooks. I have a gas stove and the price of gas is being crazy so I use this to replace one burner or if I'm just going to warm one thing up and I find it works great. Use one of those magnets off your refrigerator on your pots before you try to use it on this because they do have to be magnetic and that can't be stressed enough. There's many pluses to this in the way it works and how efficient it is and the only real negative I can think of is that after about 40 or 45 minutes it will shut off. There's nothing in the instructions about this. It doesn't throw an error and I had two of them that do exactly that. So if you're going to simmer the soup or something like that you need to be aware of this. I guess the other negative would be. The fan is running the whole time and it can get a little noisy but I got used to that pretty quickly.

This is my third inductive cooktop. The first two were another brand and both still work, but they were more basic models. I have completely switched over from my "normal" glass top kitchen stove to using the induction cooktops as they have so many advantages.After a few years of using my original unit I thought I would like something more sophisticated with more control. This unit caught my eye. I researched and found there were many happy users and considering the very reasonable cost of this unit I ordered it. There was a small learning curve as I had to get adjusted to it (expected with any new item) but soon I had worked through the controls and adjustments.There is much to like. It has three different power (watts) ratings which can be very helpful. Its very adjustable for heat and has the "sear" setting for when you really need some high heat. The timer is very programmable and can do stages, not just a simple minute timer. The top is well made and easy to clean. Its more quiet than my older units and honestly is better looking in the kitchen, not that it matters but you do look at it every day!Love it. Great value and highly adjustable. I would buy another without hesitation.
