Overview

A sealed cast iron plate heated by a single element does the work on this Elite Gourmet countertop burner. A knob adjusts heat, and rubber feet plus a cool-touch base steady it on a table.

A flat plate spreads heat evenly and works with nearly all cookware, which suits tight kitchens and travel. The limit is output, as one plate runs one pan, and the heat setting count differs between the title and description.

Who it's for

Dorm rooms, RVs, offices and holiday kitchens use a portable burner for single pans. Families who cook full meals every night should have a range or a double burner.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Flat cast iron plate
  • Works with nearly all cookware
  • Power indicator light
  • Non-skid rubber feet
Cons
  • One burner only
  • Heat setting count inconsistent in listing
  • Small plate for large pans

Performance notes

The cast iron plate stores heat and spreads it, so a flat-bottomed pan makes the best contact. Knob position sets the heat from low to rapid boil, and the plate takes time to cool after use. Small pans heat more evenly than oversized ones.
