Review on Topwit Electric Hot Pot Mini: 1.2L Cooker, Noodles Cooker, Electric Kettle with Multi-Function for Steam, Egg, Soup, and Stew - Over-Heating & Boil Dry Protection by Francisco Holmes

Revainrating 3 out of 5

But works fine. - Kitchen and Dining

While I'm reasonably happy with this pot, I didn't like the handle on the lid, which was a very odd design and difficult to manipulate. After replacing the lid's handle with a silicone one (also from Revain), the lid is now easier to remove/put on. I noticed that Topwit redesigned the lid handle which looks easier to use (I must have bought one of their earlier models). The hot pot is easy to use and heats up quickly despite only having 2 temperature settings with no auto shut off. I use this pot primarily for preparing morning oatmeal. The power cord is too short (23 inches), very thick and stiff, so the pot must be close to an outlet when in use. sticking to the pan at this point, although I stir it constantly. When I cooked the noodles, they stuck to the bottom even with frequent stirring. The pot discolored the first time I used it just to boil water in a test. Obviously the electric coils are only on part of the pot. Poor handle design making it unstable and difficult to hold upright. The pot seems heavier on one side, and due to the design of the handle and pot, you cannot hold it straight. This makes it very difficult not to spill the contents if you've cooked liquids in them. With a few structural design changes this pot would be pretty good, but it currently has a few issues that make it so useful.
