 Best One Out ThereMay 20, 2005
By Jon Jasper
"CustomCadillac"
I can't say I've literally tried or tested every counter-top buffet range there is, but this one's construction is clearly superior to all competitor's products. I hesitated - Broil King? Who are they? - sounds like some cheap, discount store brand, but I bought due to the all-steel construction because all the others, made largely out of plastic, seemed seriously cheesy to me. This unit is genuinely solidly built out of all metal, nicely chrome plated with nice quality controls. It works well to boot - like a good quality stove-top. You really get a full range heat control. I use mine at holiday time when my gas range is suffering from no vacancy. This will gently warm things without burning when set at low - a true test of the quality of the unit. Cheaper units "look" like they have full range controls but in fact, you get off and screech. Thanksgiving can be ruined if your mashed potatoes "warming" on your extra burner burst into flames because the "low" setting was mostly wishful thinking on the manufacturer's part. An excellent unit - a bit of an investment, but definitely worthwhile. I only use it twice a year, but will never regret it.

 All or nothingApr 27, 2007
By A concerned customer
I bought this for our office as a way to give our folks the ability to cook various things for lunch. It has met that goal, and it has been great to have around. I was worried that it wouldn't produce the kind of heat that a regular stove would, but it does just fine!
My one complaint and it is a significant one, is that it doesn't really have a medium heat setting. The dial covers the range but the heat it actually produces is either very, very hot, or hardly anything at all. I don't know if that is a quirk of just my unit or if that's a typical problem people face. That is a big enough flaw, to me, however, that if I bought another one, I would try a different brand.

 Works but cannot simmer.Dec 28, 2007
By S. Picotte
i bought this burner two years ago and it has been working just fine. however, i must say that i am now in the market for a new one because i have gotten tired of my only two option high or low. one can't really cook on this thing - which i need to since it's my only stove - because there is no medium range of heat. other than that it's fine.

PR-D1 ReviewJan 09, 2007
By Bryce L. Derr
Unit should be shipped with a little better packing. When it showed up, the one burner knob was off laying seperately in the box and that burner did not work correctly. It would not turn off. Had to take the unit apart to fix the burner knob shaft so burner would turn on and off correctly. Since doing that, both burners have been working fine. I have used it quite a bit and have had no other problems than the shipping problem. It is great value for the money.

 more trouble than it's worthNov 09, 2006
By xjellymunchkin
"professional nerd"
This was given to us about last christmas to replace our old one... not worth it...
a couple months into our ownership of this item, it stopped working properly. The right burner remains on at all times - we have to actually unplug it when not in use because even though the dial is turned all the way down it is very very hot when it is plugged in and turned off. So the right burner remains on hi all the time, and the left burner is either lo or hi, there is no concept of temperature control with this device... if the knob is a centimeter below medium on the left burner then the heat will be very low too low to cook most things... if it's a centimeter above medium it's hot - if you want medium heat to work, good luck.
It worked ok until it broke, however it was never especially powerful. I can't even tolerate trying to cook with it anymore, I just go to the apartment downstairs and cook on my boyfriend's mom's gas stove for nice even heating. But a ministove that they are dubbing 'professional' should not be breaking after like, three months.
