Fagor 12" Portable Induction Cooktop

Induction cooking utilizes 90% of the energy produced compared to 50% used by other cooking methods. Induction recognizes the base of the cookware and directly heats only the diameter of the pot, so very little energy is wasted saving you money while staying eco-friendly. The cooking surface surrounding the pot stays cool to the touch since only the pot gets heated. In addition, there are no open flames, heating elements, smoke, or gas emissions making this an extremely safe and convenient portable cooking solution. It also has an automatic safety shut off feature for an added safety element. Considered one the most eco-friendly products for its energy-efficiency, it also cooks faster than gas or electric cooktops, reducing 50% of the cooking time. Heating and temperature adjustments are immediate, allowing you to go from a simmer to a rolling boil in a few seconds. The flat smooth surface of the Portable Induction cooktop is made of high quality heat resistant glass making spills easy to clean. Spills do not bake on to the stay-cool surface, making cleaning a breeze!
