I was chose this induction cooktop because of its reviews. I preferred the membrane switches and digital display as it provided a smooth look and ease of clean up. The footprint of the cooktop fit perfect for my use, as I plan to use it at home and in my soup shop business, and did not want a large bulky appliance. Out of the box, the cooktop is ready to perform, and using the included magnet to check your cook pots are induction compatible. Eliminated any user error experiences from happening. I like the ease of selecting any function from timer mode to full boil setting with no delay. I was impressed with how fast the cooktop could get a pot of water boiling in under 5 minutes. This ability would work nicely with making sauces/gravy. Another feature I appreciate is the efficient heat/energy is transferred to the pot there is no heat loss whatsoever. The protection circuit is always active, when I remove the pot from the cooktop, the appliance with switch power off and give a short audible chime. Also the cooling fan in base of the unit is precisely controlled in keeping the cooktop safely cool. The only fault I could find, is the cooling fan bearing creating a low humming sound probably from its bearing spinning at high RPM. Overall I highly recommend this appliance for home or business use. Excellent quality, and design.

You will love it after your 1st use
This is the 2nd time i purchase this brand. I got the 1st one from this brand 2 years ago and still works well. My cousin just in love with it and took that to his dorm.
I need to repurchase the cooktop since is that time of the year for the holiday parties again. This cooktop can hold a huge pot, able to heat up right away when we need it and be fulfill with a group of 8 for the Shabu party. Don't judge by the box when you open, this cooktop is super heavy duty. It also have the temperature control option, which it was a good way to keep the soup hot and nice.
The only thing i will suggest the seller is the box might need a more colorful image instead of the one on it now. Other than that i just in love with this cooktop.

Solid performance and larger cooking coil after a month of Daily Use
I“tried” some induction burners and had something wrong with all of them (poor temperature control, mini coil, sometimes extremely loud running noise, touch buttons that no longer react with the slightest water vapor and much more...). This “Pro” induction burner has really mastered its job. Everything works just right after using it daily near a month.
Initially, I had doubts about whether the temperature control could actually work that well, but in short, it does! And it works exactly as described. One thing to keep in mind: induction is all about the pan. With cast iron, or good stainless, you’ll get the broad, even heat this unit can deliver. If you use a thin, bargain pot, it’ll feel like a small hot spot in the middle — that’s the pan, not the cooktop.
I also took this burner camping. Ran it at 1200 W on a Jackery Explorer 1500 for about 30 minutes to cook dinner, used roughly half the battery, plenty of headroom left. It completely met my needs, and I’m keeping it for its good value.

Great
The heating element is large, big enough to hold an extra-large pan. It only took me a moment to realize it won’t turn on unless a pan is placed on the surface. My T-fal pans don’t work with it, but my ceramic pan does. I’m very pleased with this unit—it feels well made, durable, and solid quality. An inch of water came to a boil in about a minute.

Well designed and very useful
I’ve wanted to try induction cooking for a while now, and finally the opportunity came up. To start with, this cooktop looks great and is well designed. It features an 8-inch heating coil and 18 temperature settings. I was amazed at how quickly it brought water to a boil.
It’s made of stainless steel with a black shatter-proof glass top, and it also has a timer and a boil mode button. The size is convenient enough to bring along to events where an extra cooktop is needed.
My plan is to use it during power outages, which hurricanes here can cause for multiple days. I have a large solar generator, and this induction burner will be perfect to plug in and cook a proper meal.
