I bought the Toastmaster Eclipse burner and replaced it every year since something always went wrong.

This burner is a marvel. The heat control is incredibly precise, from just keeping something tepid or warm to full-blown raging heat.

Do not hesitate.

Update on April 22:

I am now far less enthusiastic:

1. The cast iron top is NOT (reapeat NOT) easy to clean. It is so abrasive it will eat up sponges, paper towels and every thing else.
2. The cast iron top stains very easily...with no hope of reducing the stain.
3. Do not expect to change temperatures cooking on this top. The cast iron retains heat for a VERY long time. Trying to move from one temperature to another takes very many minutes...from high to low as much as 45 minutes.

I bought this countertop range to use as an extra heat source for canning. It is beautifully made and might fry eggs very well. It will not bring a canner of water to a boil.

I don't have a full kitchen so I rely on these things heavily. I went through many cheaper ranges before getting this one and it has really lasted. It boils water, stays hot for a long time and is really sturdy.
I highly reccomend this burner.
