USAGE NOTICE:

  • When you first use the hot plate, the appliance may give off vapours for up to 15-20 minutes. This is due to the protective substances on the heating elements. No need to worry, the vapor will dissipate after multiple uses.
  • CUSIMAX hot plate has a overheating protection and thermostat, it will automatically power off when the temperature is too high. It’s a normal phenomenon. Follow the instructions when using.
  • It takes about 20 minutes for the burner to cool completely, which keeps the food warm after use.
  • Please don’t touch the body of the burner during use, beacuse the surface of the burner is made of stainless steel, which will cause heat conduction.
  • Never use harsh abrasives, steel wool pads or caustic cleansers on any part of the hot plate as they may scratch the surface or damage the unit.

    Generally this does what it says cooks food and gets hot! It does seem to cool slightly at times but I have found it to be ok as you just fiddle with the controls. We bought it as have no cooker due to kitchen refurb so it has been handy although could do with four running at the same time! Would recommend for camping etc.

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our Usersa good standby
    We bought this because with the gas prices going up we wanted an alternative, plus I needed a way to keep food and dough warm, so it’s proved useful as a duel purpose item. I went for this one because I’m a lover of cast iron, and this has cast iron hob plates. The only thing I’ve struggled with is because I’m used to cooking on gas, you have to give it time before you get a temperature change when turning the heat up or down, but it’s just something to get used to, not an actual complaint.
    The heat from the hobs (and they are capable of getting VERY hot) doesn’t damage the work surface below, so don’t worry about that. Just don’t put it on top of plastic, just in case.
    I’ve found it’s capable also of maintaining a very low heat, so perfect for keeping food warm.
    I think in terms of energy costs it’s not cheaper than the gas hobs (at the time of writing, March 2022) but that may change…

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersUseful emergency hotplate
    I bought this for use while my old kitchen was being ripped out and re-built. The contractor reckoned about 3 months so I needed something better than a camping stove!

    It fits the bill very well and I’m getting to grips with the fact that I’m used to the instant control you have with gas, and these plates are far slower to respond despite heating up quickly. In fact it might take the 3 months for me to stop burning things and pans going off the boil once I thought I’d got them simmering.

    Used as temporary hotplate whilst having building works to kitchen.
    Only small gripe is that the knobs turn very easily and could possibly be turned on accidentally. I’ve got over this by turning it off at the socket when it’s not in use.

    Perfect for what we need
    This twin electric hob is perfect for what we need it for, the heat gets going really quickly, I have 4 stars on temperature control as I’m still trying to figure out how to simmer, would be better if it had some sort of low medium high or even numbers just to help gauge.
    There is a loud clicking noise on cooling which I believe is just the heat, the length of the wire isn’t very long as my kitchen is limited on plug sockets that makes it a little tricky, however I am really pleased with my purchase and would definitely recommend it.
    Looks very smart in my kitchen hoping it will last for the next 12 months!

    Temporary cooker/ Ideal for Camping or BBQ aids
    Temperature control works, and automatically stays set temperature gauge, while maintaining the heating level set, then goes into warm mode. To continue cooking you have to turn the heating dial up; cooking time is slow. Faster cooking time acheived by using Scoville non-stick pans or pots (base sizes, same as hob rings).

    I like the appearance of the product. I’ve had it almost two weeks and it works very well. It is the only cooking utensil I have and am pleased with it. I would have preferred the temperature dials to be at the front for ease of cleaning, however, this also works. Spots of liquid seem a little difficult to remove.

    Great hotplate, good price
    Bought this to use while my kitchen was being up dated. Reviews were mixed but it seemed one of the best. Have to say it’s been great. Takes a while to get to full heat but once there it cooks really well. Have made several meals such as omelettes, chilli, ragu, poached salmon, stroganoff to name a few. Son has asked if he can have it afterwards for his camping trips and barbecues. Easy to clean. Definitely a good purchase.

    This two ringed hob is better than my previous one and no burnt porridge either. It will turn itself off if too hot. It is nice looking and the knobs and temp lights are placed at the top which is a good idea and I do not think the markings will disappear like my other one. The only thing is that because I suffer a lot of pain that I had problems getting it out of the inner box so the only way was to cut the box as I simply could not pull the hob out of the box, but how they got it in I don’t know. Yes well pleased with it and I like the stainless steel as it’s easier to clean. YES will recommend it.

    Great kitchen help
    Bought to help us through a house extension whilst we had no kitchen. This has been a really useful item to help me provide family meals throughout the extension period of two months. Exhausting my repertoire of one-pot meals now but without it we would have been on microwave meals! Temperature control is a bit iffy but that’s only to be expected with a two ring electric hob but I have found it reasonably effective in cooling down fairly quickly and also managed to get a rolling boil or simmer going. Once the rings have had spills on them it is a bit tricky to clean up fully but not smoky and overall a great gadget. I am looking forward to having an oven again soon though! But I will keep using these for additional rings in the summer for outside BBQs and Christmas dinners (not this year!) when more rings are needed when we can all be together as a family again.

    Bought mainly for making coffee away from the kitchen – looks good, heats up very quickly, so I’m very pleased. It inevitably stays hot for a while after switching off, so it might be an idea for any future model to maintain the red light on until it cools. Only fault was a bit of marking on the stainless steel but a light application of s/s cleaner resolved that. More expensive than some alternatives but worth it for the looks.

    I needed two hot plates to cook whilst waiting for my new cooker. This is a really useful bit of kit. It is neat and heats up properly and you can use both plates at once without any impact on the temperature. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because if you put both plates on at full temperature, it gets very very hot underneath. It did not damage the table it was on but – if left like this for any period of time – I am fairly sure it would.

    Golden Review Award: 6 From Our UsersVery useful bit of ki
    I have an Aga that’s permanently on so , if it’s high summer , I turn it off and usually eat salad or use the microwave. Getting this has hugely expanded my options. It’s very compact . Heats quickly and is very easy to use. The big advantage is that the cast iron structure of the plates means you can use any type of pan that you already have. Most hobs now are halogen or ceramic and they are much more fussy .
    It would be better if it had handles because it does get rather hot And you have to leave it well alone after using it but it’s idea for occasional use .

    Having bought a mini oven with electric hobs I found them rather a let down and therefore decided to replace it with 1 of these ceramic halogen hobs and I have to say I am rather impressed with it despite its small size it can cook all the things as good as any gas hob fried onions or mushrooms perfect simmering perfect & I must say it is value for money
    I even cooked Chinese food for 3 very hungry people
    I would highly recommend this nifty little 2 ring hob & if you like having a good fry up while camping make sure to buy 1 of these as you can also treat your family/ friends to a very nice plate of properly cooked crispy chips for supper & if like me you are disabled I have problems with my hands this hob is very lightweight and easy to carry and the dials / knobs are large enough to grip
    It’s very easy and simple to set up and use and the bonus is that it’s very easy to clean damp soapy cloth or sponge removes everything
    Just a word of advise make sure the bottoms of pans are clean to protect and maintain the ceramic hob plates
