Solid performer that does what I need it to doOctober 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't usually write reviews of products, but when I saw the overwhelmingly negative reviews this product has received, I had to speak up. I've had one of these for several years, and it's been working -- and still works -- flawlessly. I use it mostly for keeping a pot of tea at the temperature I like throughout the day, and I'm quite pleased with how well I can control the temperature of the hot plate.
The heating plate is cast -- something, and it holds heat well. It does everything I want it to do exactly as I want it to do it, and the price is pleasantly modest. What more could I want? I don't know what planet these other folks are on, but the reason I returned to this product page is to buy a second one for my office!
Good for 3 monthsSeptember 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I used this as an everyday burner, but after 3 months its on-light indicator went out, and burner stays on even after turning it off. I expected more but for $20.00 what can I say?
heavy bottom, decent but only had it about a monthNovember 5, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
the one by toastmaster with similar heating element on top only lasts one year so i had to buy this one since both of mine clunked out.
this takes a while to start heating up but after initial heating it's just fine. I've only used it for minor cooking like eggs or beans (for rice and beans) so I can't say much else right now.
Stopped working!!!March 16, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Stayed warm when turned off. Suddenly stopped working after 4 months (even though I hardly ever used it).
Need to buy another electric burner, but don't know what company to go with.
works great.......... for 2 months! Then it is DONE!April 18, 2006 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Although it appears to be a great product for the first couple of months... when it's done.. it's done! It simply STOPPED working after 2 months. If you purchase this item, be certain you purchase the small appliance replacement warranty from Amazon.. because the manufacturer certainly will not replace it!
