Review on ๐Ÿ”ฅ Tenavo 1800W Portable Induction Cooktop: Efficient Countertop Burner with 6 Preset Cookings, Child Lock - Black by Kristopher Tight

Revainrating 3 out of 5

No low simmer, does not work with all induction cookware

Over the past few years I have used and tried several different induction cooktops from different manufacturers. I love induction cooking and have been searching for what I consider to be the 'perfect' induction burner. Unfortunately I haven't found it yet. This burner is easy to use, very lightweight and easy to clean. As with most products I've found lately, the instructions are hard to decipher and make no sense to me to use. When you turn it on, you need to press "HotPot" to set the desired temperature or heat level. Other settings may not allow this. I found that with this burner even at power level "1" the burner produces a strong simmer which I wasn't expecting as I like to use it for boiling or slow cooking soups and sauces. It has a timer function, but it hasn't worked properly for me yet. There are other settings for slow cook etc. but these are essentially shorthand for the same operating temperatures and power levels. As I said, I've tried a lot of these burners lately and have cookware that works great with an induction burner. However, I have found that some of my best pots (with other burners) are rejected by this burner. occasionally. While making sure the burner was level, I found my pans tended to move to the top right corner of the oven. no matter what table, surface or orientation the hob is on. I'm not sure what's causing this, but I'm constantly adjusting the position of the pot on the burner. Overall, I'm just not a fan of this product. It's possible that the issues I'm having are related to the issue with that particular capture device, but I have no way of verifying this. I have sent it back in the box and storage and will continue to look for a better product.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Infinitely sluggish
