This is a new concept for me the induction cooktop unlike the traditional electric cooktop which utilize heating wires to generate heat. The induction cooktop on the other hand uses an electric current runs through the coil, generating a fluctuating magnetic field, but no heat on the burner itself, once an iron or stainless steel pan placed on the top the magnetic filed induces many smaller electric currents in the metal and convert the energy into heat. I love hotpot and this is perfect for me. No more changing gas can and it provides a precise control of the heat and make the perfect companion for hotpot. The cooktop finished with a nice smooth glass top cover and all touch controlled buttons which gives a very elegant combination.

The 1800W Portable Digital Induction Cooktop Countertop Burner, Push Button Controller - LIVINGbasics™ - Well Made and Works Well. _Although the instructions are seriously lacking, and each time i;e used it, I have to figue it out again & again, it is however, (a) Figure-outtable & (b) A very Decent & Well Working Induction Stove-top element.. It has a number of features including LOCK for Safety and a Timer too - also fast Water Boiling One-Touch Setting & more. I O have another model from another company - Both work as required, Induction stove-tops don;t leave non stop heat soaking into a summer-hot resident and they are safer that all other types of elements with which to cook, In fact so much so, that Fancy Restaurants in Old Montreal use them because HEALTH & SAFETY issues, including keeping restaurants in Archaic & Fire-Prone Historical Buildings safe from Fire.Other then the practically complete lack of Instructions, except for Safety Instructions, I would have otherwise rated this a FULL 5 on 5
