REVIEW of 1 burner model
By bobbler
I am popping the review of this kind of burner to anywhere I see this unit (because I feel "burned" on my purchase.. I used the 1 burner version (cadco) for about a year..The one I bought was made in Germany, and says "cadco" on the label.. I believe its common knowledge that the ones that look exactly the same "are" the same (and some company slaps on a label).. No I cant say for sure, but this is the way to bet..My use is to heat water in a teapot. At first I kind of liked it, but in retrospect I would have liked "any" burner of this basic type..After about 2 years, there is still a chemical smell from the unit (which I dislike very much because I have freed myself from as much plastic and non stick pans as I could; now I am forced to breathe in this mysterious stuff every time I use it)..Burner rusted in a couple spots.. I thought the coating was some kind of enamel; no such luck.. Yes I put a wet water pot on the burner frequently, but the regular cheapo burners never rusted on me (I have since went back to the old cheapo burner)..Unit is quite large for so basic a function.. And the whole top gets very hot; I think a poor design. After the water boils (or oddly even gets close to boiling), and I turn off the knob, it then proceeds to a rolling boil for quite a long time.. The small cheapo unit gets very hot too on top, but where it is "supposed" to get hot, and takes up quite a bit less room.Expensive, and I hate it, and am shopping for another one.. I cant imagine what this burner would be good for (perhaps slow cooking, because of the heat momentum of the burner, and outdoors so you dont have to breath the unknown chemical vapors)..In retrospect I wish I could change to 1 star..bobbler
