Good Product-Good Company
Simple and easy to operate. Very flexible control settings. Control panel tells you exactly what you need to know about how to heating process is proceeding. They include a magnetic test strip in the box. If this sticks to your pan, cooking on this unit will be appropriate; if it doesn’t stick to the bottom of your pan, induction cooking with your pan isn’t possibleThe price is well below what the below that of the “top of the line” units on the market. Hamilton Beach has been making kitchen appliances as long as I can remember and I’m 83. This is not some “fly-by-night” company. Good product

Fast and efficient cooking!
Best purchase I’ve made in a long time. Cooks fast and precise. I live in a tiny house and it’s so much better than the electric cooktop I have. Love it

Convenient!
It was worth the money in my opinion. It is convenient for any occasions. I literally fried with no issues outdoor in 30 degree weather.

Hamilton Beach single burner induction cooktop
It’s a nice device. There’s a few things I don’t like about it. It doesn’t appear to want to turn off completely, the on/off button just flashes a red light over and over and sometimes it beeps or the fan comes on. It also it doesn’t appear to properly detect the heat and cut off at the set temperature. Instead, it just keeps cooking and boils the water over my tea kettle.

Good Cooktop! Easy to use!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Hamilton Beach Portable Induction Cooker is a handy cooktop to have. I like that it has 10 different levels of heating, but it does take a little trial and error to figure out which level is best for what items you're cooking at the time. The display has a strange "bubble/crystal"-like look to the glass top so it can be a little hard to read at times (depending on the angle you're looking at it from). The cooktop is also fairly easy to clean, but please be aware that it is hot and stays hot for a little bit after turning it off. A piece of plastic wrap touched it after I had turned off the cooktop and immediately melted. Overall, I think that if you need a portable induction cooktop, or wanted to try one out, this is a good choice.

Great Product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The portable induction cooker is great. I used it in my home and brought it to a family member’s home for more cooking space during a family dinner. As long as you pay attention and buy a compatible pan to cook on it, this kitchen item is spectacular. It’s so must faster to boil water on than a stove.

Hamilton Beach Portable induction cooker
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hamilton Beach Portable induction cooker is great! It was easy to learn how to use it. I love that it is portable and I can take it camping or just use it as an extra burner. I love that it doesn't heat up until you put the pan on top of the burner too. The burner has a pretty even heating as well..

Great addition to any kitchen
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After having spent some time with Hamilton Beach induction cook top, I can say I’m impressed, it’s somewhat larger than some induction cook tops, but the larger surface area makes it extremely stable for use of larger stock parts. Also the increased cooking area makes it easy to see the controls and operate them without danger of hitting a hot pot or skillet and burning yourself. All the controls are in a row located at the front of the cooktop, the touch controls are labeled and easy to see and operate. You can increase the temperature in increments of 5° to achieve great cooking results, it features a boost function allows you to achieve full temperature faster. Temperature can be displayed in either Fahrenheit or Celsius, and switching between the two only requires the touch of a button, temperature is displayed prominently so there’s no doubt of the temperature you are cooking at. There are many more great features on this cooktop that are going to allow you to achieve great results faster with less cleanup. It’s designed also enables you to clean up easily should you have a spill. I have an induction cook top already but my Hamilton Beach is going to be my go to cooktop in the future because of the features and ease of operation.

Great to have!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am in love with this induction burner! My stove top quit working so I need a cook top burner. I was using a non-induction cook tip but it was so slow to cook on. I got this induction burner and it cooks so much faster. It is a great size! I can't say how much better the induction is. It is a great size and works so much better. I'm sure you would be happy with it too.

Nice product with potential, easy portability.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found this unit a mix. I like the easy design and it is easy to clean, the controls are simply laid out and understand. I have had a couple issues, though. The first use was unpleasant. The smell was horrible and permeated the entire house. The fan was expelling a large amount of very hot air. It was so hot I had to shut it down and move it off my counter in fear of damage. Also the cord (my fault?) was across the area, so be sure to plug it in after checking that it doesn't cross the fan outlet, placing the unit on a wood cutting board is my advice. A big problem is the lack of instruction. It may be great to have 10 power levels but not when there is NO guidance to use. All my stoves had labels low through high, not temperature, so again, no correlation to go by. These could be fixed with a guide book and maybe starting recipes. I will try it more, I do want to use it on the back porch and would love to be able to take it along to pot luck parties.

Well Built but Slightly Noisy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having only used a full-size induction stove at a friends house before, I wasn't sure what to expect from a portable countertop induction plate. This plate works very well at heating things up, quite fast and easy to use. However, it can be rather noisy with a fan that's always on when it's running and a hissing noise from when the induction plate it powered on (especially when using the booster button). It takes some getting used to but after a while you forget about it. You can control the cooktop via temperature or power level. The power levels work great for me. I found that the temperature setting increments were too far apart for them to be useful for me. The power settings maintained my simmer pot at a very perfect low temperature though.

A really great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved it. I usually use a gas stove and that is what I based my comparison on. First I reheated some soup. Boy, was it fast. Then I made some vegetable stock. I could heat my veggies till they were translucent, then add the rest of my ingredients and have it simmer. It was done in so much less time. I appreciated the control over the heating and cooking. I would wholeheartedly recommend this product. Of course, just having to wipe it clean when I was done, goes a long way for me.
