Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Aroma PHP323 Electric Halogen Burner
Customer Review: Pricey but worth it
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm with all the people who are extremely happy with this unit. What I haven't seen mentioned (though I haven't read every review) is that this unit is much larger than the little ones with coils that have been around for years. Which is a big plus, because there's enough heating surface for a big fry pan or a pressure cooker. It's sturdy and well built and attractive. It does heat up very fast.
I did not get any smoke or burning smell at all when I first plugged it in. For me, the fan noise is barely audible and only lasts long enough to cool down the unit.
Customer Review: Great Plate
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a really nice hot plate. You can actually cook on it.
The fan is a little loud but other than that it is really useful. I had several of the Wally World coil plates and they get hot but do not stay on continously, so the water would reach a boil, then stop then boil...
This plate the water boils continously, so you can actually cook. I like it.
Customer Review: Terrible
Summary: 1 Stars
1. A very loud and whining fan operates when this is on, even in warming mode. Very distracting.
2. It takes forever to get to a boil.
I find this a terrible product because of the noise it makes. I intended to use the product to keep food warm (and it does this well) but hours of whining fan noise makes the product useless.
Customer Review: unusable
Summary: 1 Stars
As nice as this product is in every other way, the beeping noise it makes when the unit is cooling lasts for over 30 minutes after the unit is turned off and made the hot plate utterly unusable for us becuase it was so annoying. It's not a loud beep but it's loud enough to be bothersome. Disappointing. We mailed ours back.
