Great addition to my kitchen
As I don't need a full size cooker, this, along with halogen oven will suffice for me.. I like the fact that it heats up VERY quickly, but the 5th star was not given because of the time it takes to cool down...I leave it for a good hour before cleaning and putting back on the shelf where it lives...and there is no '' off'' control, so you just turn it to its lowest setting and switch the plug off..but all in all,its perfect for me.Read full review

Best Buy ever
Today I used my VonShef Hot Plate. It was easy to use, easy to control the temperature and not bulky like others to place on my worktop. In no time I had made my family stew without any problems whatsoever. Its a best buy so far for me having had one let down after another. I am soi very very happy and I would strongly and highly recommend this item.Read full review

A Capable Hot Plate
I purchased the VonShef single hot plate to use with large 36 cm alluminium pans that were not suitable for a ceramic hob. Held and distributed the heat evenilly with ease of control. Small and easy to store away in a very nice black colour too.Read full review

Very handy
We moved into a new house and don't have a cooker or hob. This has been handy for a temporary fix. It does take a little while to get hot but it works really well.

Good for cooking
I imagine this would be good for cooking food - but I use it to heat shisha coals (A shisha is a tall brass smoking implement most often seen in north Africa / Turkey / Syria / Middle East etc cafe environment)
- and as the Von Chefs heat distribution is not consistent across the sufrface of the hot plate it makes it rather difficult for my (somewhat unorthodox) purposes....Probably great for general cooking.Read full review

Smart Little Hob
I was a bit sceptical about buying a very budget priced hob. I read a few reviews and I just wanted to get a single ring. Heats quickly and regulates well. As it has numbered heat settings on the knob. Unlike most which don't. Looks good and does it's job. So far really pleased with it. At this price it's excellent value.Read full review

Should have bit the bullet earlier, darn!
I bought a mini-oven-dual hotplate combo and the hotplates take an age to heat up and then you can't set it simmer? The one burner quit and I thought of getting it fixed (it's under warranty) but decided not to. I contemplated buying a separate hot plate for ages and this pushed me over the edge. This hotplate heats up fast and you can regulate temperature. SOLD!Read full review

This is quite a remarkable little hot plate . Haven’t used it in anger yet as I bought it so that the family can something hot while my kitchen gets a makeover and don’t see any problems using it . Looks really goodRead full review

Handy addition
We had recently acquired a paella pan which we found out wasn't suitable for induction hobs so we brought this to use instead of returning the pan, and because this hob is flat with no raised handles the pan fitted perfectly and as we have other pans that also cannot be used, it has saved us money in replacing them. I definitely recommend it for those who have induction hobs and don't want to get rid of their favourite pans.Read full review
