Product review (1 stars): Buyer beware - product does not heat up as advertised.
I just got the NuWave PIC2 (and extra one for shipping and handling) offer and I got mislead by the TV advertisement and NuWave website reviews (which are all 5 stars and a few 4 stars). This NuWave PIC2 can't even heat up more than 3 quarts of water in a large pan. I did a side by side comparison of this PIC2 and the electric stove element and no comparison. It is the total opposite of what the TV Advertisement shows.
If you want on more than 2 quarts of water in a large pan to heat up, good luck. The pan might be damaged first before because of the time it might take (the 2 PIC2's that I tested never did get to 212 degrees). It only heats up in the center of the pan so anything larger that a 6" pan will not heat at the same temperature on the outer sides of the pan surface as the center. This means you will not be cooking at the same temperature for whatever you are cooking. Also, forget what temperature the PIC2 says, it is not the actual temperature that it is cooking at. The 2 PICs that I tested on cooked at least 7-10 plus degrees higher than what was showing on the PIC2, and the temperature continued to climb when cooking at temperatures between 100 warm and 375 high. I tried to keep macaroni and cheese warm after I cooked it on the stovetop and it would not even keep it warm at low. The inner part of the pan was warm, but once again the outer part of the pan was cold because the heating element of the PIC2 only gets hot in the middle 6 inches. What a bust.
I am going to post a YouTube video showing the comparison of cooking with the PIC2 and an electric stove top so people can see how much it really doesn't work.
This product and the advertising practices of this product is so misleading and so awful that I am reporting this to the BBB and telling everyone I know to not trust another TV Advertising again. The bad thing is they charged $89.85 for shipping and handling which I will not get back, and probably charge me similar to send these 2 back.
