ChangBERT Induction Cooktop, Commercial Grade Portable Cooker, Large 8” Heating Coil, 18/10 Stainless Steel Countertop Burner with NSF Certified, 10 Hours Timer, Powerful 1800W Professional Hot Plate

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I first bought a different model from this brand about two years ago to use for outdoor cooking in the backyard—it worked great and held up well. So when I needed another one last year, I went with their updated version. I’ve been using it almost every day for the past year, and it’s still going strong. Now I’m thinking about getting a third one for my parents. They prefer something quiet and easy to use, and this fits the bill—especially since it’s flameless and safer than a gas stove..Honestly, I didn’t realize how quiet it was until I saw what my friends were using. Some other brands make this high-pitched noise when running—it gets annoying fast. This one is barely noticeable even when cooking for a while. Perfect for my folks.Another thing I really like is the control panel. This model uses real push buttons instead of a touch screen, which is a big plus when buying for older family members. Many seniors feel unsure about touch panels—they often worry whether the controls will respond, especially if their fingers are dry, or if the panel is too sensitive. Physical buttons give clear feedback and are much easier to trust. It just performs simple.A few weeks ago, I had hot pot at a friend’s house, and their induction burner really struggled to bring the soup back to a boil after adding frozen ingredients—it took quite a while. That reminded me how well this one performs—mine heats back up quickly and doesn’t make you wait around.After a full year of use, it still looks clean and new. The flat glass surface is easy to clean, and unlike the plastic cooktops that start to look old.I am thinking to buy the second one during Prime Day with a deal. But honestly, even without the discount, I still think it’s totally worth the price.

I’ve been using this induction cooktop for a few months now and I’m honestly loving it. I got it mainly to make kimchi jjigae at home—my comfort food—and it’s been working perfectly.It heats up fast, and both my cast iron skillet and Dutch oven work great on it. The soup gets to a rolling boil quickly at 1800 watts, and then holds a nice simmer at 1000 watts without fuss. Way easier to control than gas.It’s been a great addition to my kitchen. It’s very easy to use. It did take me a couple of tries to decide whether I preferred using the watt or temperature settings—but now I switch between both depending on what I’m making.Also—if you’ve ever cooked kimchi stew, you know it splashes. And I used to hate cleaning my gas stove after. This one’s so much easier to wipe down. The flat glass surface just takes one swipe.I’ve had other induction cooktops before—the cheaper plastic ones. After a while, the casing would get scratched, or just feel worn out. And the touch controls were really hard to use—especially if there was steam or soup splatter on the panel. This one feels way more solid and durable. The buttons are easier to press, even when I’m in the middle of cooking. Just makes life simpler.Now I just keep it set on top of my gas burners so it’s under the vent hood, and I use it basically every day. Definitely one of my better kitchen buys.

After installing A/C in my home, I wanted to cook without heating up the whole kitchen. I bought this unit because it looked like the best fit for both well-built and good performance.PROsCustomer service was great. I had a question about the HEAT and TEMP settings, and they replied quickly with a clear answer. And honestly, I didn’t expect the HEAT mode to cook that fast—it really speeds things up.Super easy to use. Just press and go—no complicated presets. Last time I got a touch-panel model for my mom, but she kept saying it was too sensitive. Even wiping the surface sometimes triggered the controls. That’s why I chose this one with real buttons.Easy to clean. A damp paper towel does the job.Heats more evenly than my mom’s unit.Lower noise level. My mom’s burner has a louder noise. This one’s noticeably quieter during use.If her current one ever stops working, I’d definitely get her this model.It costs a little more than hers, but it totally worth it.

Works well every time I need to use it.
