Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The professional single burner range from BroilKing is a solid solution for light-duty cooking anywhere that a kitchen is not an option. It offers simple operation and easy portability in its compact, 1100-watt frame. Made with chrome metal housing and outfitted with a heavy-duty 3-prong cord, the burner heats up quickly and is controlled with a smooth-turning front dial. Most effective with pots that match the size of the 5-1/2-inch tubular element, the range is not ideal for rigorous catering duties, giant kettles, or huge skillets. But for the everyday needs of a pot of soup or a grilled cheese sandwich, it does the job just fine. BroilKing includes a helpful safety power light and an adjustable leg for stability. The range is UL listed and backed by a two-year warranty. --Emily Bedard

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes cooking a joy, August 27, 2006

We live in a RV Coach and I love to cook. Space is sometimes a problem, so I have used many different types of coil burnes, but this one is the best. With an adjustable leg it allows for a level large base cooking element for many different sizes of pots or pans. Also, unlike others I have used, when you set it to a temperature it stays constant at that temp. till I adjust it up or down. Great product.

1.0 out of 5 stars functions poorly, overpriced, October 26, 2007

I have had this for two weeks. It may be defective and I am considering returning it. When set at "Low", it burns things. When set just below "Low" it barely keeps things warm and doesn't cook.

It would be better if the red light were on only when the unit is on, not just plugged in. It is already obvious that the unit is plugged in but the slightest jar to the dial will turn it on and that may not be obvious(a click stop for "Off" would be a useful feature). I would recommend not buying this over-priced, under-performing product.

3.0 out of 5 stars This product is OK, but just ..., May 15, 2007

This product has gone up in price since I originally bought it in June of 2006.

It has several design flaws but given the original price and the fact that it actually worked I was happy with the purchase.

It is now May of 2007 and the thing no longer works.

So I rate the product as OK and now consider it overpriced.
