Overview

Not a gas flame or an induction coil, this Ovente single burner heats a seven inch ceramic glass surface with an infrared element. A knob sets one of five levels, and an indicator light shows when it is on.

Cramped living spaces get a flameless extra burner that packs into a cabinet or suitcase. The description says it works without cookware restrictions. The top is one cooking zone, so several dishes at once need a second burner.

Who it's for

Students, travelers and apartment dwellers get a backup stove they can pack away. The glass top wipes clean. Families cooking full meals daily need more than one burner.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Infrared element heats a ceramic glass top
  • Five temperature levels
  • Non-slip rubber feet
  • Light enough to pack away
Cons
  • Single cooking zone only
  • Not smart home compatible
  • Surface temperature limits not listed

Performance notes

An infrared element heats the ceramic glass surface, and a thermostat knob holds the chosen temperature, per the description. The description also says a full pot of stew boils quickly. Because the zone is seven inches across, small to medium pots seat best.
