Duxtop 9300ST Ultra Thin vs GE CGP650SETSS

Measuring 11" by 14", this device is portable enough for carrying around. It's also noticeably thinner than the majority of other mobile cooktops.

There are 15 different power levels ranging from 100 W up to 1500 W. Furthermore, the temperature can also be set to 15 different levels, ranging from 140 degrees up to 460 degrees Fahrenheit.

Since it uses induction for cooking, it has all the benefits this technology provides. It's very energy efficient, can heat up food/water very quickly and the cooktop itself doesn’t heat up when being used.

The timer can be set for up to 170 minutes.

There is a child lock system to prevent accidental activation.

There is a voltage warning system included that will warn you if the voltage is too low or too high.

The moisture sensor will switch off the cooktop immediately if it detects liquid on the surface. It will also switch off if the cookware is removed from the surface for more than 60 seconds.

This 36" wide cooktop has five burners. They are separated by wide spaces and are covered with continuous burner grates. This allows you to work with large cookware that can be rearranged throughout the cooktop.

Some of the burners are excellent for specific uses. For example, the left side burners are good for searing while the right top one is good for delicate melting and simmering. It also has a tri-ring burner which offers the most flexibility.

The cooktop looks very professional and sturdy, with a metal finish that gives it a premium feel. It will definitely make itself a highlight of your kitchen’s aesthetic.

Instead of relying on push-to-turn knobs, this unit has an actual control lock feature that disables the controls altogether. This is a vert reliable safety feature if you have fidgety kids.

You can convert this cooktop to run it on liquid propane. You will not need to buy a conversion kit separately as it’s already included in the package.

An included customized Lodge griddle can be swapped out for the left grate. A griddle adds a lot of versatility to your kitchen and makes it easier to cook eggs or burger patties.

It can maintain low temperatures on all of the burners, so you can simmer sauces on any of them without worrying that something will burn.

It has a central burner with a doughnut-shaped burner around it. This setup ensures that it can be used both for gentle simmering, or for blistering heat to boil water fast.

The grates can be safely washed in the dishwasher without worrying that the color will come off.

The knobs have blue backlights that not only look good but also let you know which of the burners are operating.
