Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far has worked well and consistently and have used several times a week. Heats up very fast even on low setting. A little on the smaller side, only heats up 10” pans or smaller. Increments seem too large for temps, ex. Can only adjust temps by 40 degrees at a time.

I bought this product to stay away from gas cooking. I have my 8" cast iron skillet and I saw good reviews with cast iron, but upon multiple tries with SO many different types of cooking/foods over the last 6 months... I'm about to give up. Only thing it performs correctly is water boiling. No food can I get the right type of cooking on but specifically I cannot get the right sear on steaks, as the heat zone is only about 4" wide, and that BURNS the seasoning(cast iron) so fast, even on setting 5. Then once you add the food, it stays hot for a bit, and then the heat is turned down automatically?? By the time the steak is done to medium rare, the outside is grey and only charred in certain places when it first hit the pan, when I can get perfect steak with this cast iron on any other cooking device(fire, electric, gas stove or induction cooktops on a bigger range). Is there anything I can do to trouble shoot this?

This unit replaces an old 1400 watt unit that still works. We like the Insignia's 1800 watts of power, which allows for quicker boiling etc. Unit is simple and very quiet. If you find it on sale its a real bargain.

I really don’t know how induction cooktop works. But when I try it, it works even more powerful than my kitchen’s electric stove. It is also energy efficient. I don’t see any better way to make my tea. However, this device may not work on some kitchen appliances, I don’t rly know why.

It was great to heat up stuff really fast but it is hard to control the heat level. It get burned even I set temperature at 360.

It does the job. Its hard to use and loud. Its works almost like an electric hot plate

Heats pans almost instantaneously. However, the heat doesn't seem very consistent or even. I am going to try with a cast iron skillet for more even cooking. But I got it on sale, so I can't really complain for a $35 induction cook top.

Great induction cooking unit. Works great, easy to use and heats skillet or pan very fast and maintains set temperature without guessing.

A really great product but I wish there was more control over the temperature settings. The unit looks great and cooks great, but the differences in preset temps are too far apart.

A different appliance to use when cooking on table top.

Good Cooktop, but it's pretty noisy. When I have it turned on, my dog would run away from the kitchen due to the high pitch noise.

The price of the cooktop was good. Pros: has timer, heats well, easy to store. Cons: won't work with all pots and saute pans.

We liked it but returned it because our pots and pans are not magnetizable, they are stainless steel and so the induction won't work. I would recommend it to anyone who has metal pots and pans that will work.

Great sale price of $35 made this a no-brainer. 1800W is what you want out of your single induction set. Included magnet is a real easy tool for new induction users to check their pots/pans for induction!

As a stand-along cooktop, it works as described. It has a flat surface, just like my range, even though its footprint is larger than expected based on those pictures.

This was a very good item to buy and a great deal of the day.

This unit is not as versatile as the advertising would lead you to believe. It will not work on any non induction cookware and the current draw it more than expected when one was used.

This is a great Induction cooktop with all the basic controls for cooking a quick meal. It's efficient and not making a lot of noise. Good bargain when it's on sale.

I have not used it yet but it looks like it’s going to be nice to you I thank you for your interest in my review but as soon as I use it I will let you know should be OK

covid workhorse for 2 years plus now. still going strong, would not hesitate to buy another. timer feature helpful for my forgetful mind. my daily driver.
