I'm always running out of burners at holidays when I'm doing extra cooking for friends and family, and this is an ideal "spare." While it might not be the best choice for bringing big pots of water to a rapid boil, it is wonderful for those small jobs, particularly things like making gravy or breakfast eggs. The burner is very well made and has a light to indicate when it is plugged in, which is useful so that you don't forget and accidentally leave it plugged in and potentially on. Please note that the light indicates that it is plugged in, not necessarily when it is on (although obviously if there is no power it can't be on). The controls are simple, and the burner is small enough to store away in the cupboard when not in use.
We have even used it on camping trips and is particularly useful when trying to cook a regular meal in an RV which may not have all the burners you need for everything. Because it stores away so easily, it can be packed/stored without taking too much room. We love this little burner and use it a lot more than we thought we would. In fact, we bought a second one because it was so useful and worked so well.

Tested. Proven. Reliable products at reasonable prices.
Tested. Proven. – It’s not just a tagline, it’s what has led our product development for decades. Every Proctor Silex appliance begins its journey in our engineering lab. Motors rotate, switches turn and mechanical arms spin for days on end, testing each function and feature. Then it’s off to the test kitchen, where the staff uses the product much like you would – cooking and creating to ensure it will make your life a little easier. Only when an appliance passes our rigorous testing do we know it’s ready for its final test – your home.
Proctor Silex Fifth Burner
Feed large groups with ease.
A compact yet powerful appliance, the Proctor Silex Fifth Burner is the perfect solution for preparing meals wherever an extra cooktop is needed. Make enough food for large groups with ease when your typical 4-burner range won’t cut it, or put it to the test when your meal preparation takes you away from the kitchen, like tailgates or potlucks. Its portable size and lightweight construction makes it the perfect tool for on-the-go chefs.
It’s easy to achieve quick and sustained heat with the variable temperature knob, which can be adjusted anywhere between low and high heat settings. Cleanup is just as easy; simply lift up the coil and wipe down the stainless steel drip tray.

Chaffing it up
This is the best little stove I have ever had. I wish they would continue to produce it and not create different ones. It has no heat topper which means that it doesn't reach a certain temperature and then cool down. It consistently stays hot. I love that I can actually boil water on it. The only stove that compares is a gas stove. So that speaks volumes about the heat. I make gumbo and everything on this one. Deep frying is no joke!

No need to spend a lot. This little guy really delivers at a small price!

Two or 3 of these could easily handle what any stovetop could. Practically instantly heats up, very simple to adjust the temperature. While reliability is an unknown, in the short time I’ve had it it’s performed better than expected! I mainly use it in conjunction with a temperature controller to make yogurt or cook sous vide. It handles that, and sautéing really admirably. It will bring a 6 cup teapot from cold tap water to boiling in about 13 minutes. It’s lightweight, but seems rather sturdy. You can’t go wrong for the money.

This fifth burner that I bought was it to use it outside of the house in my patio. It is an excellent burner and becomes a full function in 30 seconds. (see the video). The element will be about 850° F at that time.
