It heats quickly, offers excellent temperature control, and is perfect for hot pot at home. Review: Great Duxtop 1800-watt Induction cook top - A quick update. I have been using this induction cook top for 6 months now on a daily basis, it is the only cook top I use. I am still as happy with it as I was when I first started using it. Getting use to the heat settings did not take long and it does hold true to the temperature. I most certainly recommend this product to others. Am very happy with my investment. I just received my Duxtop induction cook top from desertcart a few days ago. I have to say, this is a wonderful cook top and I am glad that I made this purchase. I purchased it because my regular gas cook top was no longer safe to use and I needed a burner desperately. I did my homework on several of these cook tops and I found this to be the best option in its price range. There is a slight learning curve in using it as the heat settings are accurate and of course you have to use the preset heat ranges, they increase or decrease by 20 degrees and are not quite what you would expect them to be -- I would like it better if you could increase or decrease by 10 degree increments, and if low went a little lower, say to 120 degrees. I am not sure that on my regular cook top I ever actually cooked at 350/360 degrees even though I thought I was. I did read in other reviews as to the sound of the fan -- not even as bad as indicated -- and the red "on" light remaining lit -- not a problem and you know you have your appliance plugged in -- I am glad that the light stays lit and you can tell the difference between it being plugged in to power and the unit actually being on -- it is not rocket science -- with the light being on I can remember that I need to unplug it, as anything electrical from a TV etc. can start a fire if left plugged in and you have a faulty plug you might not know you have. I unplug everything when I leave or just when I am not using it -- I have all my electrical items on surge protectors so it is easy to "disconnet" them by just shutting off the surge protector switch. (you might want to consider purchasing a meter to check the working condition of your electrical outlets and then you can replace a faulty outlet before it can cause a problem (fire) -- they are inexpensive, you do not need to be an electrician to check the outlets and the device just plugs into the outlet and lets you know if the outlet is working properly or not -- a great safety device that will save a house fire.) An induction cook top reguires pans that have a magnetic bottom on them, so you do need to use a magnet to see if it adheres to the bottom of your pans. I mostly use Calphalon pans and they are not magnetic, but I also use cast iron pans (which I actually prefer except for the weight, but now I have found they are making light weight cast iron pans) which are. Also, be sure to take a magnet with you when you shop for pans for your induction cook top. I found I did have a couple of stainless steel fry pans that were magnetic, but I have no sauce pans that are and will need to purchase a couple or invest in the special magnetic round (desertcart sells this) to put on the cook top between the cook top and non-magnetic pans so that you can use them. At $34.99 it is pricy for what it is - but if you do not want to have to purchase new pans and yours are not magnetic you will need to invest in one. As always, I was very pleased with the order processing and handling and had my unit within three (3) days. I am a Prime Member, if you are not and you order from desertcart on a somewhat regular basis you might want to consider becoming a Prime Member, AND NO I am not an desertcart employee -- their program just has great benefits including the 2 day shipping. Anyway, you can not go wrong purchasing the Duxtop and I am going to not replace my cooktop, but am going to keep on using this one and will purchase an additional one and then go with a stand alone convection oven. I would not hesitate to recommend this unit to my friends, and have done so, that they purchase this unit. I will say, you do not want to purchase an induction cooktop, or any kind for that matter, that is rated below 1500-watts (regardless of what they give you free along with it, you will not be happy with its performance, plus you will have paid excessively high shipping and handling costs both ways and for that cost you could have purchased two of these -- I am sure you have seen the infomercials a well known company has running whereby they will send you two for the price of one -- they obviously know the worth of their unit and that you will be returning it and they will not refund the shipping and handling cost -- so think seriously about how what appears to be a good bargain but is not! I also want to add that I live full time in an RV and the Duxtop works beautifully and does not take up too much space -- I have it on top of my non-working unit, I just put a cutting board over the top of my stove and set it on that. Hope this helps if you are contemplating the purchase of one of these units. ## Features - REQUIRES INDUCTION COMPATIBLE MAGNETIC COOKWARE.

For anything lager than, say 9 inches, you should use something layered with copper or aluminum to spread the heat, unless just boiling water or soup. We love this 11 inch GreenLife skillet, which seems identical to our much more expensive OXO Mira pans, except for size and color of non-stick coating: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B09X7H4XB4?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details For pans with bottoms a bit smaller than the top, like those, you could get away with a 12 inch pan, if you found one. **Q: I don't have a stove available to me, and I was considering buying this to substitute. Would regular cooks who love food as much as I do recommend it?** A: I had to replace my propane stove with a new one in 2018. But then I invested in solar through a community solar array and chose to move to induction. This was my entry [toe in the water, so to speak]. I won't go back to using my propane stove unless there is a power outage. At 75, I probably wont invest in an induction range, but I might consider another induction unit ilke the Duxtop if I need more "burners" -- But with a toaster oven, microwave oven, and the Duxtop, I have not used the propane stove more that twice since I got the Duxtop several months ago. I just comes out of the lazy susan shelf under my counter and away we go. **Q: Will cast iron pans scratch the surface easily?** A: I mostly cast iron skillets, 5 Qt Dutch oven or very heavy metal & enamel coated pots all the time on my unit. I like the idea of using parchment paper more to ease clean up if you have something that's likely to boil heavily and spit out a droplets -- easier for clean up. My cast iron has not scratched the top, and I occasionally adjust it to keep centered. So far, not scratched. But I don't throw it around. My 5Qt. enamel coated Dutch oven is heavy, but I slide it on/off with no trouble **Q: Which wattage setting is appropriate for traditional temp wok cooking, as in stir fry, is 1300 high enough or is it 1800, anyone know?** A: The higher the wattage the faster the unit will heat up but it will be at the cost of burning more energy. For stir fry you may want to start at 1800 then drop down to 1300 if possible. Also with stir fry I believe you will lose more of the nutrients at a higher wattage setting, however the higher wattage the less amount of cooking time will be required. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Induction Cooktop – Fast, Powerful, and Easy to Use *by A***R on June 15, 2026* I am extremely happy with this Duxtop 1800W Portable Induction Cooktop (8100MC/BT-180G3).

Really, really fast. *by M***9 on August 19, 2012* I live in a father-in-law suite connected to our main house. I rate myself a decent chef, but no longer cook any extravagant meals just for myself, so I only need minimal cooking facilities. Zoning won't allow a second stove in the house (how stupid is that???), so I installed a combination of this cooktop, a Breville Smart Oven (the full-sized one, not the compact version), and a Kenmore TrueCookPlus 1.2 cu ft, 1200 watt microwave oven Model 6633. I highly recommend all three and find that between the three, I can cook anything I'll ever need. As long as you don't try operating all three at once, they can be run on a standard 20-amp kitchen circuit. Reviews I read prior to purchase stated that the DuxTop induction cooktop was much faster than either gas or a regular electric stove, but that it lacked fine temperature adjustments, and was noisy. I would have to agree with all three points, to a degree. The DuxTop cooks my morning bowl of oatmeal in about 1/2 the time it used to take on a regular electric stove. I've found similar results with other foods. The temperature control is via three selection methods: "Heating" (i.e., # of watts generated), "Temperature" (i.e., constant degrees F), and "Timed" (i.e., # of minutes). After about six months of use, I completely ignore the "Temperature" and "Timed" controls. Neither seems to have any particular advantage. The "Heating" (wattage) control ranges from "1" to "10", and defaults to "5" when you turn the unit on. I've found that my oatmeal doesn't particularly burn to the bottom of the pan regardless of whether I cook it at 5 or 10, as long as I turn it off when it begins to boil. I've also found that turning the unit down to 3 after the oatmeal begins to boil doesn't seem to have any effect. It continues to boil at the same vigorous rate. I have to turn it down to 2 or 1 to bring the oatmeal to a simmer. The only food for which this lack of fine control seems to be a problem is fried eggs. It's difficult not to somewhat blacken them on the bottom, even if you cook them at a 1-3 level. There doesn't seem to be any similar problem, however, with cooking omelettes. Strange, because they're both basically the same food. Bottom line.... If you're a gourmet chef, this probably isn't the unit for you, but if you're just an everyday basic cook, this unit should be perfectly adequate for you. As far as the noise goes, yes, it is relatively noisy compared to a regular stove, which makes no noise at all. It has a cooling fan that runs whenever the unit is on, plus a couple minutes after the unit is turned off. But on a scale of 1-10, I would rate the noise at about a 2-3. It's approximately equivalent to an over-the-range vent fan running on low. If you buy this unit, be aware that not all cookware will work on it. Induction cooking uses magnetic resonance to generate heat, so your cookware has to be magnetic on the bottom. I gave away a nice set of Revere cookware because the copper bottoms were non-magnetic. I almost didn't buy this unit because when I first looked for induction cookware, all I found were sets that cost $600-$1,000. However, trusty old cast iron fry pans work just fine, and cost less than $10 each. I also found some inexpensive sauce pans (1 & 3 qts) at Target. There are even some non-stick cooking sets available for under $100, if you feel that sort of thing is important. Just be sure to take a refrigerator magnet with you when you go shopping for pans. If the magnet doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, don't buy it. You can buy an "induction disk" for $40-$100 on Amazon, which slides under a regular pan to make it work, but I haven't found any need for that. The only downside I've found with this unit is that I would prefer if there was a slight offset between the cooking surface and the control panel in front. A couple times, my 10-1/2" cast iron skillet has slid forward during cooking without my noticing it, and has slightly melted the back edge of the control panel. This doesn't affect the functionality, and I've learned to be watchful for it, but it was annoying when it first happened. The unit does have a nice safety feature so that if you remove the pan from the unit, it (the unit, not the pan) will start beeping and will shut itself off after thirty seconds. A good thing to have for an absent-minded old codger like me. ## Frequently Bought Together - Duxtop 1800W Portable Induction Cooktop Countertop Burner, Silver 8120MC/BT-180G3 - Aufranc Stainless Steel pots and pans set, 6 Piece Nonstick Kitchen Induction Cookware Set,Works with Induction/Electric and Gas Cooktops, Nonstick, Dishwasher --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/100175910-duxtop-1800w-portable-induction-cooktop-countertop-burner-silver-8120mc](https://www.desertcart.us/products/100175910-duxtop-1800w-portable-induction-cooktop-countertop-burner-silver-8120mc) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
