Product review (4 stars): Works as intended
Serves its purpose. Have used it 3 times in the first week of owning this burner. I wanted one that actually didn't have the auto shut off feature when it reaches a certain temp. This keeps going when you set the dial to the max. I wanted a constant boil for making shabu shabu (hot pot) at home. To ensure my meats and seafood got cooked through in the boiling broth. I also liked the square shape and decent space around the coil. It is very steady even with a heavy pot on top. Did not give it 5 stars because the box had what appears to be severe water damage. The product box, not the Amazon shipping box. The product box was torn, tattered and wrinkly from getting wet. The instruction booklet inside got wet as well because it was also wrinkly. Everything was bone dry when I received it but you could tell it had contact with water - you know how paper gets wrinkly and wavy when it dries after getting wet. Surprisingly the burner looked untouched and brand new. I hope it doesn't die on me with more use.
