| | if you want to boil-off 100+ gallons of water during the winter,this beast can handle it,with precautions.to avoid thermostat burnout,i leave it at a setting that never switches off,and control the simmer-rate by limiting the input voltage to 90v or less (Staco 3pn1510b).i also use an Intermatic timer to shut off power if im not around to add water to the pot (Calphalon stainless 6 1/2 qt soup pot,because it was there.) |
| What a great product! | 2007-04-10 | 5 / 5 |
| | The electric range is so convenient and efficient in it's design. We used it recently on vacation to cook outside of our travel trailer. It heats quickly and thoroughly, enough to fry eggs or deep fry french fries, after just a few moments of warm-up time. The stainless steel finish is durable and easy to clean and its size makes it easy to store in tight places. We are VERY pleased with our purchase of this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a portable stove or hotplate. |
| When you need reliability... | 2007-02-12 | 5 / 5 |
| I love this single burner range...I serially bought one of several different models (of single burner ranges) locally, tested them, and returned them all. I was disgusted. Then I got this one. It was considerably more expensive, but its rock-solid and has been in use about 18 hours a day, 24 in some cases, for several months.
Its a great size for pans and regular pots, but a bit too large for the smaller pots, like 1-1.5 qt (or even a 2.5 qt, if the latter's got a windsor bottom).
It warms up very quickly, and cools off more gently. If you're used to cooking with gas, this will be a shock because it's cast iron and holds the heat. If you're experienced in cooking with cast iron (pots, pans, ranges :), you'll find it utterly predictable, or at least I do. Sometimes you just have to remove the pan for a few seconds and turn OFF (not down) the heat.
I consider it easy to clean. I've never done more than blow a few crumbs off on the cast iron burner, but I imagine it IS a sponge eater if you scrub it with one (as noted by another reviewer). The burner has a rough surface, but that's all good in my book. It keeps pots and pans from too easily or inadvertantly sliding off the range - prevents potential disaster! The part of the range that I'm really concerned about keeping clean is what all surrounds the burner. That part is all brushed steel, with no seams or holes or "gingerbread", very sturdy, very professional, and a real breeze to keep clean.
Did I mention that I totally love this range, despite the hefty price? It was designed for working cooks, imho. If I ever need yet another burner, I won't bat an eyelash at getting this same model, or at recommending it to a friend. |
| Beware of its limitations | 2006-04-22 | 3 / 5 |
| This is a superior range, IF it meets your needs. Consider however:
1. The cast iron top stains very easily.
2. The rough cast iron eats sponges and towels and is very difficult to clean.
3. The cast iron retains heat...expect over 45 mintues for the heat to reduce from high to low....you cannot expect to change temps during cooking under most conditions.
It does however, heat rapidly and retain precise heat (at one temp) well over time.
