Elite Gourmet ESB100B Countertop Single Coiled Burner Electric Hot Plate, Temperature Control, Indicator Light, Easy to Clean, Black

This burner works great. It was reasonably priced and is exactly what we needed. The heat levels are accurate. It's light weight for it's size, cook time is average, looks good and does not put off an odor that I've noticed. I would buy again!

Works as it should. I checked the bottom of the unit while operating, gets a bit warm. Would recommend a cutting board or something under it when in use. Otherwise, its a steady, secure unit.

Got this for my mom as an early mothers day gift, she loves it! Shes always wanted one and since it's getting hotter outside, we use it to save electricity and not heat up the entire trailer.

I bought this after my gas stove developed a leak. I cook all my own food and do not eat prepared foods, so having a way to cook was imperative. Right now, it is two months old and has been used at least every other day, probably closer to once a day. The pros are it is simple to operate, heats fairly well, and stores well when not in use. It cleans up easily, even when I manage to boil stuff over. Speaking of boiling, it does not bring water to a rolling boil but still boils well enough to cook pasta OK. However, I could not fry potatoes. Maybe the pan was too big or maybe the heat did not go high enough, but despite whatever I tried, I could not get it hot enough to fry, thus it loses a star. But otherwise, I like it, it looks decent, it did not cost a fortune and has held on for two months so far. Time will tell how long it lasts, but for now I am very satisficed and am glad I bought it.

I love it! Wanted an extra burner just in case. Thought it was defective because light didn't come on until the number 3 setting. No worry. Could be a safety measure. Once number 3 came on, that burner got really hot and stayed hot for a while once turned off. The surrounding metal didn't get hot at all even though there is a "hot" sticker. I like it a lot. Very happy.

We have this for a few years now and it works great! It’s durable and it doesn’t take long to cook. Heat control is great. I have to complaints! Definitely would recommend!

It's okay, it has a hot spot on the right rear, it gets hotter there than the rest of the plate. The logo has rubbed off partially from regular cleaning. That occurred within the first month. I have a nice circular silicone cover that fits perfectly to cover the burner. The burner itself quickly became discolored and unsightly just from use, not spills or cleaning. Having said all of that, it otherwise functions well. Good for sending your kid off to college or for a first apartment.

Heats up quick, but it takes a while to boil. Like 20 minutes. There was also a weird chemical plastic smell when we originally turned it on but it's gone away for the most part. Sleek looking, cleans easily so far, easy to store!
