Portable Induction Cooktop, iSiLER 1800W Sensor Touch Electric Induction Cooker Cooktop with Kids Safety Lock, Countertop Burner with Timer, 9 Power Levels Suitable for Iron, Stainless Steel Cookware

Great product, terrible beep, easy fix. 0. You'll want to wipe down the surface of your cooktop, and unplug it. At this point I should note that you are responsible for your own safety, the voiding of your warranty, you forgetting that you were just using your hot plate as a space heater for four hours and burning something, and so on. Follow these (simple) instructions at your own risk. 1. Flip the cooktop over. There should be six readily apparent Phillips screws on the back. You don't need to remove any of the rubber footing or any seals. Remove the six screws and separate the heating element from the cooktop surface. 2. Now, there should be a board next to the heating element. Not the one obscured by the heating element, the one with the springs that was contacting the control panel, the one you touch when you adjust heat and use the power button. On this board, you want to locate a small black cylinder labelled ZLFY. Honestly, it's the only thing that really looks like a speaker, and if you Google the code etched on it (which you always should) it confirms that it's the super annoying buzzer that makes this product a 3/5 instead of a 5/5, because I use a hot plate to cook at 3 am when everyone's asleep. 3. To remove this buzzer, you could pull the board up, go get your soldering kit, and desolder it from the other side. But what I tried, so that you wouldn't have to, is just snapping it off with needlenose pliers, which worked perfectly. BE CAREFUL: These boards are easier than you might think to break. There are two pieces to the buzzer, and the first one you can pull off more or less perpendicular to the board with your pliers. But the piece that's actually soldered on won't come off like this. You will feel the board straining if you try it. Firmly grip it with the pliers at an angle and steadily twist it off the board. It should come right off. If it doesn't, it's possible yours just has more solder, but I suspect most people will be able to do this with ease. 4. The thermal paste on the heating element will be unsealed, but given that this entire device is designed to cook chicken, not play Minecraft, and they barely used thermal paste on mine to begin with, I think it'll be fine. If not, I'll report back with a guide about how it takes five seconds to replace thermal paste. 5. Reassemble heating element and cooktop surface with six Phillips screws. The beep should be gone. If you try this, please post the outcome. Edit: It has been five days and cooking is going fine without replacing the thermal paste.

Our little iSiler induction burner gets used virtually every day, often more than once. It gets used more than our Bosch gas cooktop. Why? 1) It is just as fast or faster than the gas burners. It's a lot faster heating oil in a fry pan, and a little faster boiling water. 2) It has tremendous precision. I set the temperature and don't have to worry about whether I'm using a better or lesser pan. 3) It's much, much easier to clean. 4) It improves our indoor air quality. I make omelettes most mornings and it's awesome for that. I can set the temperature to 200, put in some frozen, add a little oil, and thaw frozen garlic. While I chop veggies, the garlic thaws, turn up the temperature to 320, and in a minute, it's ready for onion, peppers, etc. When the veggies are ready, I turn it down to 300 and put the eggs in. It's sooo much easier than cooking on gas. We stayed in a condo with a smooth (non-induction) electric cooktop. They had a better pan, but I couldn't get used to how long it took to heat the pan or how long to drop the temperature. 18 months later, well 19 months, it still works just like it did the first day. I wholeheartedly endorse this product.

I bought this because I wanted something that radiates less heat during summer. This is a good tool. I got the idea by seeing how popular these tools are in countries including China and India. It is very easy to clean. Temperature control is very good. I recommend using the wattage (100-1800) display instead of the temperature display. This particular model does beep and notify you when you remove the pan from the cooking surface, including at times like when you're swirling butter in the pan or tossing the contents of the pan during a saute. However, it does not shut off immediately, so that is good. Although I had a specialized purpose in mind when I bought this burner, I am using it instead of my stove for almost all of my cooking. Heat is quick and even. Adjustments are very responsive. The surface of the burner is easy to clean. A couple of things to consider are: The unit should be unplugged when not in use. That will wear the outlet, so I bought an outlet switch that can be shut off when the unit is not in use. Also, and significantly, the bottoms of my stainless pots and pans are lightly etched in a circular pattern as if scratched by the round markings that are "painted" on the surface of the glass burner. Because of that, I will not be using the burner with enameled cast iron that I do not want to damage. It is a very minor issue with stainless.

So far, so good. I love this cook top. I can control the amount of power down to 100 watts and I only cook with 200 watts. The thing for me is the precise control of temperature. Best for cooking during hot weather, surrounding area stays cool as only the pot is being heated. Just make sure that the pots you use are magnetic. Ordinary cookware won't work. Lucky for me, I already had cast iron pots and pans.

I’ve been using this cooktop since February 2021. I originally bought it for road trips because it’s lightweight and slim enough to fit in a 17-inch laptop case, but I liked it so much that it became my daily stovetop. Recently, during extremely cold winter weather, the heating element didn’t heat evenly and the fan sounded strained. Since everything returned to normal shortly afterward, I suspect the issue was weather- or power-related. What really stood out was the customer support. After posting a question, I received a helpful response from the manufacturer/seller, which was very reassuring. I’m now looking to buy another induction cooktop, and this experience makes me strongly lean toward iSiler. I’ve tried and returned several other brands, and none have come close—iSiler sets a very high bar.

Best purchase ever! I usually review the purchases if they are either too good or bad. I have been using this induction cooktop for more than 3 years and it’s the best. And I recently brought another one and thought I should review this.

Excellent induction hot plate!

I like everything about the way this cooktop works, except the fact that the part that heats up on the pan only seems to be a few inches wide. If you fill up a pan with a bit of water, bubbles will come up from about a 4 or 5 inch circle in the center of the pan. This makes this burner much less usefull. If all you do is use 6inch pans, it would work for you, but for anything but a very small pot or pan I wouldn't reccomend it.
