It says it only uses 10% less space. It def seems less clunky but at 5x the price of a standard hotplate I don't see it really worth it
i dont see the advantage unless its significantly lighter
folding isnt a benefit in my book when traveling with a suitcase
I personally agree to the fact that the money probably isn't worth it, but you guys missed or didn't mention the feature that it let's you have 2 different temperatures which is definitely a nice feature as it can be for cholent/soup very hot and for stuff that's already cooked low heat(just an example).
Imho that's a very powerful feature combing ofcourse the compactness feature with it.
