Cadco KR-S2 Description
Taking up minimal space in a crowded kitchen, the Cadco KR-S2 electric hotplate is designed for countertop use.

Failed in less than a year of occasional home use
I used this a few times to heat pots of chili and warm sauces. Now I turn the dial, the light comes on, no heat.
The Best!
I cook on it daily. I heat water regularly. It doesn't heat super fast to start but it is not slow. Once it reaches temp it stays hot even when turned off. Cooks well on a low setting, on 3 or 4 of the possible 12. I did research too long (two days, several hours each) and found so many sorry reviews for those I considered buying till I found this hot plate with the least objections. I like that I can use any type of cookware on it and that the cast iron plate is durable, not fragile like the induction hot plates and that it holds heat long after turning it off. I like that it isn't made in China. It looks as good as it is good. Very stable on my counter. No problems. Would be nice to find one of these with a second plate of a smaller seize. One large, one small.
Love it!
When I was suddenly without a gas range a couple of months ago, I was down to a single burner induction cook top (which I love), but I had glass cookware I couldn't use on it. Rather than replace my glass cookware right before Thanksgiving, I decided to just get a single burner electric cook top. I've never cooked on electric, except induction, so plunged into researching them. I shop for quality and longevity and this Cadco KR-S2 seemed to fit the bill. When I unpacked it, I was impressed with how solid and well-made it felt and it works beautifully! I love the smooth ceramic top as opposed to coils. Super happy with my puchase!
Hot Plate reveiw
So far so good. It heats up fast and creates excellent heat in the frying pan. It is easy to clean. It is good to follow the directions that before using to cook turn up the heat to maximum and let the burner burn for 10 minutes so the coating on the burner is properly treated. I use the hot plate out on the covered patio and it works great there.
Hot Stuff!
Works well, came up to temperature real quick, cooked a pot of vegetables pronto. Nice SS top, and cast iron heat top. Made in Germany, it makes a difference, the bottom edges of the SS covers ain't like a razor unfinished edge, like Chinese junk usually is. DETAILS matter. Heavy 14ga cord. Good non slip rubbery legs. Never heard of CADCO before, it looks like they makes some nice stuff. I seen $19 similar size hot plates, ya can be sure they are junk! Most reviews of them cheap ones, say they burned out fast, lousy temperature control. Sometimes ya get what ya pay for..so far so good.
Well made
Finished good, made in Germany...no sharp edges, Stainless Steel, and not made in China for a change, quality stuff, priced well
Unable to get water to boil in Pressure Cookers
I just received two of these burners and I am unsuccessful in getting the water to get to a rolling boil in both of my Presto pressure cookers. One is a smaller steel and the other is a larger aluminum. When I put the lid on the cookers it sounds like the water is starting to boil after about 1 1/2 hours but I am unsuccessful in getting the equipment up to pressure. The larger aluminum cooker got up to 5 PSI but that is not sufficient for my pressure cooker requirements. ( Also I had the PC's on the burner for about 5 hours, so there was plenty of time in my opinion to allow for sufficient heating.) I believe that to say this product is perfect for canning is misleading, I am going to try adding water that is already boiling just to see if that may help get my PC's up to proper pressure, but I believe the problem is that my PC's are too big for this product or the wattage needs to be more than 1500 to get a rolling boil in my PC's that I need. I found several other reviews saying that they were able to use pressure cookers on this product wonderfully but I seem to not have luck.
Great hot plate
We are a tea bar and we bought it since we don't have a kitchen stove to make simple syrup with. Works great!
Hot Plate
Great to have for canning.
ham hocks and beans big as a 10 gallon hat
just finished a perfectly prepped passle of beans, a whole lot of beans. had this mountain of beans and hocks set at a meagre 3 out of 12 on the knob and it brewed at a nice, slow, even pace for 4 hours. it was easy and I kept dropping the setting until it just boiled lightly, so that tells you to hit the numbers early to get things brewing and in about half an hour for this pot, some 9 inches across and 10 inches deep then drop them to 3 for that slow boil to finish. no surprises and plenty of flavor.
Good Quality
I use this to heat up an 6.5 gallon pot and it works great
