great hot plate
We have just received this hot plate, but we love it already. We do not have a stove, so we are cooking in an air fryer and a griddle. I wanted to be able to make mac and cheese or a quick soup. I decided to try a hot plate and ordered the Techwood hot plate. It comes with a notice to burn off the chemicals on the burner before first use or it could stink. I did turn it on for a few minutes before cooking, but I have not noticed a smell. It heated up quickly and our wonton soup was done in just a few minutes. We are learning to cook so we are experimenting with flavors. I decided to make my own broth, and it was great. I made it from fresh ingredients, and it was done quickly. It tastes great and saved me a ton of money over going out for wonton soup. I did not notice any noise other than the boiling water and love that it can be tucked away easily once it cools off and I can move it around or take it with me if I need a place to heat something up. We love this thing and how it will help us expand what we are able to cook. I can't wait to make some wings.

Pretty decent hotplate
The burners are each 7 inches in diameter, and there's enough space between them to use two small to medium sized pots/pans. I was able to use my bigger pots and pans for cooking on one burner at a time (even my 12" frying pan), it just took nearly twice as long. I've had to use it for a week so far (including to cook Thanksgiving dinner: mashed potatoes, green beans almondine, cranberry sauce, etc.). This cooktop has held up well and I'm happy with it so far.

Stopped working and warenty is false...
I have used this hot plate less than 10 months, and have used it lightly. I use it to heat a kettle up in the morning for a French press. The other week, after turning it off and going about the day, my husband said, "The hotplate is still on and super hot! But the knob is all of the way off! This thing is going to catch something of fire!" The plate was scary hot and had to be unplugged to turn the burner off. Basically, now the knob for On/Off plus heat adjustment does not work and it runs on hot...yet hotter than it did on full heat before the knob stopped working. I contacted the email for support. Supposedly they are to get back with you in 24hrs. I never heard back, so days later contacted another email address. They responded next day and said this email address does not handle these issues but, they will send my email over to (the email address I already contacted previously). The person who replied also stated that they have been busy, so just keep sending emails and they will respond. I have sent many emails over and over and I have had no reply what soever. I rarely place reviews...not because I do not care to. In fact, I wish I did. I am just so busy, that I do not have time. I honestly want to share good reviews and I have so many to share. I am so disappointed in this situation that I feel the need to place a review. I'm very disappointed that the company fully abandoned me and did not stand by their product nor stated warranty.

Easy to use, does what it needs to
Due to reasons outside of my control, I can't use my stove to cook my eggs in the morning anymore. Microwaved eggs are absolutely out of the question for me, so I decided to pick this handy little hot plate up.I was a bit skeptical, but this thing has been very impressive for me so far. It heats up quickly, and the temperature automatically turns on and off to stay at a steady temperature - meaning I don't have to worry about my eggs burning. Exactly what I needed during the morning chaos while I'm trying to get my breakfast in while hustling to get ready for work.Clean up is very easy, and the controls are extremely simple, which is exactly what is needed. Simple on and off switch, and the 2nd knob adjusts temperature. No need for presets or other buttons or lights. The simpler, the better.One thing to keep in mind, however, is that the whole entire unit gets hot. It takes about ~20-30 minutes to cool down to a safe temperature, so you will want to be sure that you put it in an area where it's away from any pet cats or children while it is in the cooldown period. Since the whole thing gets hot, it will be a bit too hot to move to a different location, even with oven mitts. Not a big deal, but it is something to be aware of the first time you use it.
