Nuwave Gold Precision Induction Cooktop, Portable, Large 8” Heating Coil, 12” Shatter-Proof Ceramic Glass Surface, 51 Temp Settings from 100°F - 575°F, 3 Watt Settings 600, 900, & 1500 Watts (Renewed)

I bought three hot plates online and two at local stores. All of them were horrible. I finally found one that works great. It has a lot of different temperature settings Cooks even even on low temperatures. Gives me a lot of choices and the 8-in heating coil gives me even heat throughout my pan even on my iron skillets. Highly remain recommend

NuWave has a stellar reputation with years of customer satisfaction and a solid product line. I wanted to try their induction cooker in my RV to supplement my microwave. I needed a low energy item with quick and easily adjustable temperatures.Make sure you buy a model that will best fit the base on your metal pots and pans. For a single cooktop the 8" metallic cooking surface was perfect for me. I did need to buy a couple pots/pans with full magnetic metal bottoms. That is required.NuWave offers an easy to read, quick-use sheet, a great warranty and stellar customer service. I highly recommend their product line. They do not disappoint!

Setting this up is a breeze, I'm pretty sure the build quality will last me a while. It literally cuts my cooking time in half. It's a great value for your money.

Like the title says...hot. The sear setting works almost too well and I love that. More is better than not enough. I also like that if you try to use a non-induction pot/pan, it beeps and wont run. There are 6 presets but you can adjust to whatever temp you like up to the max 550°. It heats remarkably faster than my electric range "super" burner and cleanup is quick and easy as well.

Amazing device. Expands my cooking space and capabilities.

This is my first experience using an induction cooktop, and I absolutely love it. The controllability of the cooking temperature, even-heat across the whole bottom of the cookware, and speed of heating are excellent compared to my standard flat surface range top (which is average at best). Induction is definitely the way to go.As to deciding to order Amazon Renewed over a new cooktop: I didn’t know if I’d like induction and I did not want to be into it for a lot of money if I hated it, so Renewed made sense for me. Amazon had rated the condition of this cooktop as “Excellent,” and I was perfectly okay with a few cosmetic flaws as long as it functioned as it should. When I unpacked it from the box, I have to admit I was a little confused. There’s no other way to put it: what I received was brand-new and I saw no evidence it had ever been used and/or returned. So don’t be afraid to check out their Renewed products next time if they have something you’re looking for.

I got this to replace one that quit working after about six years. Works as expected. Good price.

It is only good for boiling water maybe. Temperature varied a great deal, way too much for cooking. Bad thermostat. That seems to be the problem with all these budget induction cooktops and stoves.
