CUSIMAX 1800W Ceramic Electric Hot Plate for Cooking, Dual Control Infrared Cooktop, Double Burner, Portable Countertop Burner, Glass Plate Electric Cooktop, Silver, Stainless Steel-Upgraded Version

Works amazing and heats up quick

The Cusimax 1800W upgraded electric hot plate is awesome. This is the best hot plate I have ever purchased. Believe me I have tried quite a few over the years. This one works great, and the water boils quickly. It is easy to keep clean. I am so happy I purchased this hot plate. It far exceeded my expectations.

Great value for the money. I love the gorgeous appearance of this infrared cooktop with a white marble finish on its stainless steel top, & 2 black durable glass burners which show even, bright red patterns as they heat. It looks so nice, if it wasn't designed as a portable model, I'd install it as a permanent drop-in cooktop in my cabinet. This is my 1st experience with infrared cooking, & I was amazed by how quickly & evenly it heats. I've found mine to be quiet, making no unusual noise. I have no trouble boiling water, or cooking things so they turn out exactly the same as on my gas stove. & Another bonus is it's SO much easier to clean. I've been happily using this model x2 months for all my stove top cooking, & it's doing quite well, but I'll update if anything changes. Highly recommended!

Overall Burner quality: Decent looking metal surface with printed "white marble" design enamel coating. Entire unit is surrounded in a shell of sheet metal which becomes quite warm to the touch (some would consider it hot) even operating only 1 of the 2 burners on high. Both burners running on high settings makes the entire surface *(including the temperature control knobs!!)* likely too hot for most to touch with bare hands, so gloves or mitts are probably necessary for most operators of this thing. Each burner is 900W, max. They do NOT balance 1800W between them as may be implied in ad headers. In other words, using only 1 of the 2 burners will not allow that burner to use the full 1800W, unfortunately. This seems like a very easy thing to implement in such devices, so I can only assume they would NOT do it in order to use cheaper overall build materials that only have to withstand 900W of single-burner heat output... any single 1800W burner will necessarily be encased in and wired with more robust materials. Alas, 900W max burner units are cheaper because they're... well... cheaper. 😅 Works well: ...enough. At my elevation of about 700' above sea level, one (preheated bare) 900W infrared/ceramic burner at full power takes about 20 minutes to reach a gentle simmering boil of a gallon of water, which appears to be the best boiling it can do for my test pot: *Test pot is 6Qt capacity, filled with about 4Qt of our well (spring 🤤) water from the tap. The pot's bottom plate precisely covers the full diameter of the heated ceramic surface, exactly. Fwiw, the pot is a Carote brand, detachable-handle, ceramic nonstick coated, aluminum pot with a mild-steel-insert baseplate for induction-readiness. I'll attach a video. Why did you pick this product vs others?: So far, it's worth about what I paid for it. I.e., not more than 80 bucks.

Excellent product heats very well

I like the way the hot plate looked , it was very easy to clean . After just the first use a small place on the burner seemed to be peeling, I wished I'd taken a picture of it before sending it back . The other thing I did not like that both burners were the same size and 900 was just not efficient for high temperature cooking like frying. I ended up ordering a different model.

I chose this particular hotplate because it has two large burners, instead one burner being smaller. It is quite sturdy, but not heavy - you can move it easily from one location to another. The burners heat up quickly, too. It has worked very well for cooking meals - you can brown meats, boil water and sauces, etc. It doesn't make any noise when it operates, other than maybe a slight click when the operating light switches on and off. One potential safety issue that I noticed - when you first turn on a burner, a red light comes on to let you know the burner is operating. It seems that the burner goes through "cycles" in order to maintain the desired cooking temperature. When that happens, the red light will go out. This also happens if you turn down the temperature while cooking. As a result, the red light can be off, yet the burner is still in operation and hot. You need to be sure that you turn each burner's heat setting dial completely to the off position when you are finished cooking. Otherwise, there are possibilities for accidental burns, or even a fire if something is set on the still-hot burners.

I like this burner because pans sit flat and it is good for simmering food. It does take a while to cool down so don't leave pot on burner after unless you want to keep it warm.

It justw works !

Very nice looking and works very well. The only con is the burners only heat centrally on bigger pots or frying pan but that is my fault for not checking burner size.

De muy buena calidad y bonitas

I am super pleased with this product so far. I was quite impressed with how quickly it heated up and cooked my dinner, with a nice even heat. This is my first infrared cooktop. I like the simplicity of the design, the functionality and its bonus feature, it goes with any decor and style.☺️👍🏼 I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a similar item, and even let them use my own if desired to see for themselves. Thank you to both the Manufacturer, the Distributor and of course Amazon! Much appreciated! Kelly
