This review is from: Aroma AHP-312 Double Hot Plate, Black (Kitchen)

I was looking for a double burner to replace a single coil burner. I went with this one because the the cast-iron heaters are 6-1/2" and 71/2" to accommodate both large and small pans, which make it safer. We like it OK, but it is slow to heat up.

1.0 out of 5 stars Never gets hot, February 28, 2008

By 

CustomerCritique (New York) - See all my reviews

This never gets hot enough to cook anything. You have to let it warm up for 10 minutes just to use it. The warm feature doesn't keep things warm either. I am sorry I chose this one, and I will have to buy another one and stick this one in the trash where it belongs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Defective On Arrival, January 18, 2007

This review is from: Aroma AHP-312 Double Hot Plate, Black (Kitchen)

I hate to rate something so low, but my experience warrants a low score.

The larger burner was defective from the onset - the knob turned but the burner remained on, and at full it seemed, regardless of the knob's setting. I had to unplug and plug in the unit to turn it off and on. The smaller burner worked!

Amazon was nice enough to refund me in full and even paid for the return shipping as well. Packing seemed fine too, guess it was a manufacturing defect. Hopefully this doesn't happen to many others.
