Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Rival 4071WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express
Customer Review: Great accessory in Iraq, though it's 110V only.
Summary: 4 Stars
This was great to have in Iraq. I had one in 2003, and I got another when I came back in 2008. The Hot-pot allows me to make coffee, tea, hot chocolate, cook macaroni, heat soups, and so on. There are a few types offered here at the PX, but they all have an exposed heating coil. Therefore, they are only good for heating water. The Hot-pot has a non-stick burner at the bottom that easily comes clean. (Don't be an idiot like me and attempt to clean it by scraping it with a field knife...bad on teflon!!)
An obvious alternative is a microwave, but those are a LOT less portable, more expensive, and the Hot-pot doubles as a bowl. The lid easily snaps on and off and has a covered spout for easy pasta straining.
The biggest disadvantage I ran into was that this device only runs on 110V power. I really could've benefited from a dual voltage appliance. I had to find a power converter big enough to handle a heating element anytime I wanted to use it. So I got a bargain (8 bucks) on the Hot-pot, but I had to spend another 75 dollars to get a power converter. That's not a big deal back home, but if you are getting one for overseas, keep that in mind.
If you plan on sending this as a gift or in a care package to a soldier overseas, I should say that most people get power converters anyway. Guys get converters for everything from alarm clocks to X-boxes. Don't let the power difference dissuade you. If nothing else it'd be something good they could trade off.
Back home, this product would be good for a dorm, hotel room, office, camper/RV, or boat. I sure got my money's worth out of it!
Description of Rival 4071WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express
A 32 ounce pot that boils water faster than a microwave & keeps it hot for hours!A real time-saver, this 32-ounce Hot Pot boils water 60 percent faster than a microwave. The plain white exterior makes it equally at home in an office or dorm room, and the nonstick interior can be wiped out easily with a soapy sponge (the pot should never be immersed in water). Seven settings, from low to high, allow milk to gently warm or noodle soups to come to a full boil. A one-year warranty covers the pot against defects. --Ann Bieri
