Kitfort CT-104

Advantages: Very high heating rate, as on a full induction panel. Price.

Disadvantages: The main disadvantage is the uneven distribution of power: the center of the dish heats much more strongly than the periphery even with the diameter of the dish bottom smaller than the diameter of the hotplate. This makes frying in the pan difficult.

Also, in my opinion, it takes quite a lot of space for a two-burner tile.

Comment: Having become accustomed to the charms of the induction panel and changing all the dishes to an induction one, I no longer wanted to return to the traditional plates. Therefore, when moving to another rented apartment, we acquired Kitfort, who has such good reviews at a low price.

For almost a year we have been using it as the main plate Water boils very quickly and the pan warms up. The tile stands tightly on the surface of the table, does not move with stirring, and generally reluctantly moves.

The disadvantage, as I have described, is the uneven heating.

In general, I definitely recommend, especially as a temporary solution, as well as for a rented apartment or a summer house as a permanent one.

Advantages: prepares very quickly, the water boils faster than the kettle, very clever, you can put the timer to turn off, the sensor from boiling, there are ready-made programs for cereal, milk ... Easy to wash. In general, I adore her. Compared to conventional glass ceramics, it is super! Build quality is good.

Disadvantages: they are simply not there

Comment: I bought it at the dacha, I began to cook on it two times faster than before. This is my assistant, I love her. Previously, I did not understand the delights of induction — now only she. In the first inclusion slightly smacked, when warming up. Then everything was fine. Ordinary teflon pans do not fit her, fit: cast-iron and enamelware. Ikea has frying pans for her. It is a pity that this company does not produce 4 hotplates, I would love to buy it.

Advantages: 2 burners; heat; security; clear instruction; appearance; easy to wipe.

Disadvantages: Unknown to me for the manufacturer, but this ends the shortcomings.

Comment: I bought special dishes, I do not mind. it was worth it. The tile is chic both in appearance and cooking. all manufacturers took into account and the cost is not transcendental, I think anyone can afford such a plate.

Advantages: In principle, the product is very high quality. Everything works as it should.

Disadvantages: Great harm to health when using Teflon dishes, a small heating area.

Comment: The fact is that most people use teflon pans on induction. As you know, Teflon is harmful when heated above 240 ° C. If the pan warms up evenly, then you will never reach such temperatures. But here the area of ​​real heating is a circle (a circle, not a circle), with a diameter of ~ 10cm and a thickness of ~ 8mm. In the middle of the heat there. The actual heating area is VERY small.This is easily seen. Pour water into the pan on the bottom (5-8mm) and turn on the stove. I have a 7mm thick frying pan, especially for induction cookers. Still, water boils only along this circumference, and in other parts of the pan does not boil. Using a thermal imager helped to establish that in this tiny area of ​​heating, the temperature of the frying pan rises to 250 ° C, while the rest of the frying pan is much colder. Draw your own conclusions. With cast iron frying pans, the same story, but they are not afraid of overheating. Conclusion - you can fry only on cast iron cookware. And even on cast iron, we have a very uneven heating of the pan. This is especially true frying pans, more than 240mm. I did not deal with other inductions. Perhaps there is more uniform heating.

Advantages: The very balanced model of all Kitforts inductions.
2 powerful comforters that are at a sufficient distance from each other.
Compactness and very modern appearance without excessive variegation.
Quite moderate power consumption, noiselessness and protection against overheating.

Comment: I have already read a lot about noiselessness, I'd rather tell you about the fact that quite large 2 frying pans (pots) are placed on the stove and do not interfere with each other - this is very important for me, in the past - it didn’t fit at all.
I am not thrilled with the management, but I think you can get used to it quickly and easily.
As for compatibility with dishes, everything is fine, since I changed dishes on the last plate.
Of all the Kitfort models that I watched, the CT-104 was the most normal, without unnecessary frills, but it provided protection against overheating (emergency shutdown).
I cook with pleasure, do not overpay for electricity, without prejudice to the design of the kitchen - beauty!

Advantages: One of the few induction plates with KNOBOCHNY management - cheap and cheerful)) dishes 12-26 cm - all went absolutely. already 10 power levels and "emergency" shutdown.

Comment: at least a large area, but not a bulky plate with push-button controls - what was needed. stumbled upon this model quite by accident in the process of "Internet surfing", so to speak. looked at the characteristics before purchase and specially measured all the pans))) looked ridiculous ... but did not lose everything in the interval of 12-26 cm entered, so the class. 10 lv. power - cool, but use, of course, not all. the emergency mode of switching off the plate, which saved me a sclerotic a couple of times, is also important.
I think that this stove became a good purchase for the family, made life easier and became an aesthetic attribute in the kitchen ... 5 points, definitely)

Advantages: - The tile is good, the coating is strong (my hands-hooks dropped a pan on it a couple of times).
- 2 burners - while not taking up much space. You can adjust the power of several useful programs.

Disadvantages: - Difficult to name.

Comment: All programs have not yet been tested, but most have tried it - they are well chosen in terms of power, do not digest and prepare for a relatively short time. I liked a very strong and practical glass-ceramic coating, in 3 months with a little - not a scratch. The stove does not heat up, copes with its duties perfectly, is conveniently managed ... well, it has become a godsend for our family. As you already understood, we liked the stove, it became a pleasant addition in the kitchen, it looks like Haitekovo is fashionable and copes with everything we give it.

Comment: They considered several models of the Kitfort brand, which they liked this: a panel differentiated from the burners, you will not accidentally touch the borsch; normal touch control, yet not stupid.
In general, bought this and not disappointed. The fact that the burners are separated is really very convenient.Powerful very, quickly boil or heat a frying pan ... the dishes, by the way, all went up (before that, too, was the induction of another company - it broke). This is our first copy of the Kitfort equipment - at home.
We got used to it for a couple of months, while there were no failures, it is a pleasure to cook on it and then cleaned easily and conveniently after cooking too. We advise !!

Comment: compact model, two comforters missing, and in a small apartment - notably saves space. All the dishes came under it, and the “Keep Hot” mode was very useful.
In general, high-quality, functional, relatively inexpensive panel.

Advantages: 1. Price
2. Good functionality

Disadvantages: 1. High fan noise during operation
2. High initial power when the burner is turned on.

Comment: Tile purchased for use in the country. The only annoying thing is that when the burner is turned on, the initial power is 1200 W, it could have been smaller.
The buttons on the panel are not touch-sensitive, for me it’s rather a plus, less random clicks.
In general, the impression is positive.
