Product review (1 stars): *holds fingertips in ears
I guess my review from years ago when I purchased this didn't post. Yes, the pot that comes w/ this is garbage; you will get a burn spot in the same damned place that other one-star reviewers posted about if you use a cheap pot, which the one that is shipped with this is. What really prompted me to write this review is that this thing is loud when you press buttons. I mean, I cannot believe how insanely loud the beep is, especially when you first plug it in. It actually seems to reverberate in its loudness. Getting this for a quiet place is out of the question. I bet people from down the street could hear this thing beep. I was so desperate to squelch the beep that I popped this open to find the component making the evil noise and no dice. The electrical diagrams on the PCB show no signs of the location of whatever causing the sound. Other induction ranges might also beep when buttons are pressed and the airy design of this one makes the beep even louder, but this should have been taken into consideration during design and modified accordingly. As it is, I am on the hunt for another induction range.

Does it work? Yeah it works, if you like going from 200 degrees to lava. I wouldnt trust this thing to cook above 250. I just wouldnt. I don't trust what could happen, so I have never taken it above that. I bet it gets hot but I have a nice non-stick induction pot and I fear this thing would heat it out of control and melt the lining off.

At $49.99 it seems they are charging at least $10 for the pot, which is outrageous considering you could probably get a better pot at IKEA for about the same price.

*Note: this review is not entirely against Rosewill whose products I like for the most part. When I got this it was being sold by a company called Amamax, which I eventually found out is some massive Chinese conglomerate on Amazon. When I contacted customer service to return this item for a refund, I was given a - MASSIVE - runaround. (I counted nearly thirty emails exchanged) After a particularly bad customer service rep mouthed off to me in an email, a U.S. based rep finally stepped in. He told me that their returns department receives thousands of return requests a day out of the 10,000 orders they process daily. Other reviewers have noted the bad customer service and I believe this is why.
