Our verdict

A portable double burner that works with cookware you already own and heats quickly, at the tradeoff of cycling heat rather than holding it perfectly steady.

Overview

A 1700 watt double infrared hot plate with a 7.75 inch and a 6.75 inch ceramic glass cooktop, five temperature settings on an adjustable knob, and an auto shutoff for overheating.

Infrared cooktops heat by radiant element rather than magnetic induction, which is why this works with any flat pan instead of requiring induction compatible cookware. That also means it cycles the element on and off to hold a set temperature rather than delivering constant heat, which one reviewer explains is normal for this type of unit rather than a defect.

  • 1700 watt dual infrared element
  • 7.75 inch and 6.75 inch ceramic glass cooktops
  • 5 level adjustable temperature control
  • Auto shutoff on overheat

Who it's for

Fits small kitchens, RVs, boats, and anyone needing extra burner space without cookware restrictions. Not a fit for someone expecting the steady output of an induction cooktop.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Works with any flat cookware, no induction specific pans needed
  • Heats up quickly
  • Compact and light enough for RVs or small kitchens
  • Two burners hold different temperatures at once

Performance notes

The unit heats up fast and holds temperature by switching the element on and off within roughly a 5 to 10 degree range, which one reviewer explains is standard for radiant coil or infrared units without a capacitor. Owners used it for frying, boiling, and holding fondue pots at separate temperatures on the two burners.

Frequently asked questions

Does the Ovente BGI102S work with regular pots and pans?

Yes, unlike an induction cooktop it works with virtually any flat cookware, ideally sized close to the burner diameter.

Why does the Ovente BGI102S keep turning on and off?

That cycling is how radiant and infrared units without a capacitor maintain temperature, and it is expected behavior rather than a fault.
