The Need of Every Home, Ultimate in Cooking Convenience. A hot plate is extremely useful to have, whether you plan to use it as a short-term solution or a long-term fixture. A versatile solution for temporary use in place for your usual cooker, it provides relief from continuous microwave meals at times when your cooker has broken down or if you're having your kitchen renovated. It's a great alternative to the traditional camp gas cooker as it's easier to clean and doesn't require gas. The Geepas Hot Plate features one solid cast iron ring for placing your pans and powers up to 1000W. It can accommodate pots and saucepans of most sizes. To ensure your food cooks evenly we advise to not use a pot with a base wider than the hob plate. The hob has a handy individual neon power indicator light so you will always be able to see if the hob is on or off. It's built to last, is durable, corrosion resistant, easy to clean and has an adjustable temperature control function which acts a safety measure. It has a thermostatic dial to switch on and control the hobs temperature. When the hob reaches the set temperature it will stop increasing the heat and maintain an even temperature for your cooking. Beneath the body of the hot plate are 4 sturdy rubber feet to ensure it stands stable and firm while you are using it. These feet service a dual purpose as they allow heat from the device to escape underneath to prevent it overheating. Great addition for Warming, Cooking, Boiling, Frying, Simmering, and much more. PERFECT COOKING SOLUTION, MULTIFUNCTION: The ultimate must-have kitchen accessory, the Geepas electric hot plate (or table-top hob) is perfect for those who are limited on kitchen space or without a conventional cooker due to renovating or decorating.
