  • Our take on the Nuwave Portable Induction Cooktop

    The NuWave Pro Chef is a portable single-burner induction cooktop with 94 temperature settings in 5°F steps, from 100°F for holding sauces to 575°F for searing. Its shatter-proof ceramic glass surface is NSF-certified and passed a 1.5 ft-lb drop test, and patented insulation places the coils closer to the pan for faster, more even heat. It shuts off when the timer ends or the cookware is lifted, and there are no open flames or hot coils. It suits small kitchens, dorm rooms, RV and camping cooks, and anyone adding a burner for parties or canning. Against cheaper portable induction units, it offers finer temperature control and sturdier glass, but it is a single burner and needs induction-compatible cookware.

    About the Nuwave Portable Induction Cooktop

    The NuWave Portable Induction Cooktop (model Pro Chef) is a countertop cooktop with 94 temperature settings in 5°F increments. The range runs from 100°F for keeping sauces warm to 575°F for grilling steaks. It can sear, boil, fry, sauté and more.

    The heating surface is shatter-proof ceramic glass, tested to withstand high temperatures without breaking. Patented insulation technology places the induction heating coils closer to your cookware for quicker, more even heating without hot or cold spots.

    The cooktop is NSF-certified and passed a drop test with an impact of 1.5 ft lbs. It turns off automatically when the cooking time is up and won't activate if the cookware is removed. It has no hot coils or open flames, which lowers the risk of burns and fires.

    Questions and answers

    Does it work with any pan?
    No. It needs cookware with a magnetic base, such as cast iron or induction-rated stainless steel. Test a pan with a magnet; if it sticks firmly, it will work.
    How precise is the temperature control?
    It offers 94 settings in 5°F increments, from 100°F to 575°F, so you can hold sauces warm or sear at high heat.
    Does it shut off on its own?
    Yes. It turns off when the set cooking time ends and will not heat without cookware on the surface.
    Can I use it on a countertop?
    Yes, it is a portable countertop unit. Leave space around it for airflow, since the fan needs ventilation.
    What is in the box?
    The cooktop unit itself. Cookware is not included, so you will need an induction-compatible pan.
