Mine is a good 10yrs old now, works fine but has older style controls. The "burner" on this one is 8", mine is 6.5", that makes a positive difference. I live alone & I'm not a cookaholic. My meals are simple, a higher priority is not to burn things so I'm a lower temperature cook. My test burger cooked up fine. . I'll use the older one as a second burner for vegetables. I like the NuWave format for the heat control settings. Other brands do not offer that fine level of temperature control. Above all I am a popcorn addict. The low setting (100°) melts butter perfectly, which is why I bought the first one. Review: Who needs gas range when I can simply use this Powerful, Fast, and Shockingly Convenient - Who needs a gas stove or an outdoor burner when you have the Nuwave Precision Induction Cooktop? I cook a lot of fried fish and spicy dishes, and like most people, my kitchen vent doesn’t catch all the smoke or smell. So I started cooking on my deck using this cooktop, and it’s honestly one of the best purchases I’ve made. I plug it right into the outdoor outlet using a short extension cord, set it on my deck table, and I’m good to go. This thing heats FAST—it can simmer gently or sear at 450°F+ in seconds. It gives me gas-stove-level heat control without an actual flame. Perfect for frying fish, boiling, searing, or doing anything that normally stinks up the kitchen. The heat maintains in very accurate and precise temperature so it’s perfect for cooking food or desserts that need precision temperature. It’s awesome to maintain specific heat for fried food! My only “complaint”? I love it so much that now I want to replace all my pans and pots with induction-compatible ones… and I’m already considering upgrading to the higher-end Nuwave model. A few extra notes people may want to know: • Super easy to clean — wipe and done. • The surface does feel a little plasticky, which explains why some people complain about melting if hot oil splashes. I avoid issues by using a lid and wiping spills quickly. • Portable and lightweight, great for decks, patios, RVs, or backup cooking. • Heats more evenly than many gas burners I’ve used. I honestly wish I bought this years ago. I use it on my deck table almost every day, and it’s become my go-to for anything messy or smelly. Highly recommended. ## Features - MAKE ADJUSTMENTS ON-THE-FLY – Want hotter temperature or need to cook it longer? No problem. Simply adjust on-the-fly any time. Starting the cooking process over is not necessary. Gold induction cooktop’s intuitive digital controls are easy to operate, and the response is immediate. - 96 PRE-PROGRAMMED TEMPS - Select from the 6 convenient preset temperature settings or fine tune your own temperature from 100°F to 575°F in 5°F increments. You can also add or deduct cooking time at any time. - SHATTER-PROOF CERAMIC GLASS – There are no open flames or hot coils that can cause burns. Unlike the competition, Gold’s heating surface is heavy-duty shatter-proof ceramic glass, which was rigorously tested to withstand intense heat without shattering. It is one of the safest cooktops on the market. - FAST and EFFICIENT – Gold heats the pot directly transferring 85% to 90% of its electro-magnetic energy to heat energy! Traditional stovetops only convert about 30% of their heat for cooking. Cook faster without wasting energy and money. - MELT CHOCOLATE - Mastery of the double boilers is not necessary. Simply set the Gold at 120°F; add chocolates into an induction-ready pot; and stir. It will never burn. Even preparing the most delicate sauces like Hollandaise, Beurre Blanc, and Beurre Fondue is no longer daunting. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01CHB1Y22 | | Best Sellers Rank | #10,679 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #18 in Countertop Burners | | Brand | Nuwave | | Brand Name | Nuwave | | Color | Black | | Controls Type | Touch | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 4,448 Reviews | | Heating Element | Induction | | Heating Elements | 1 | | Included Components | multi-functional induction cooktop | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 12"D x 14.25"W x 4.5"H | | Item Highlight | Portable, 100°F to 575°F, 3 Wattage Settings, 12” Heat-Resistant Cooking Surface | | Item Type Name | Induction Cooktop | | Manufacturer | Nuwave | | Material | Ceramic | | Model Number | PIC GOLD | | Number of Heating Elements | 1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | 601368-30242 | | Power Source | induction | | Product Dimensions | 12"D x 14.25"W x 4.5"H | | Special Feature | Induction Stovetop Compatible | | Special Features | Induction Stovetop Compatible | | UPC | 679360224960 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 120 volts | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Manufacture Warranty | | Wattage | 1500 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nuwave - **Burner type:** Induction - **Color:** Black - **Controls Type:** Touch - **Heating Elements:** 1 - **Material:** Ceramic - **Product Dimensions:** 12"D x 14.25"W x 4.5"H - **Special Feature:** Induction Stovetop Compatible - **Voltage:** 120 volts - **Wattage:** 1500 watts ## Images ![Gold Precision Induction Cooktop, Powerful w/Large 8” Heating Coil - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/618kVSk0omL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can you get an extended warranty?** A: Im not sure but i think you can. Honestly, my NuWave's have all lasted a very long time each with daily use. I won't be without one. **Q: Can this cooktop be set for lower wattages than the maximum of 1500 watts?** A: Yes. There are settings for 600 and 900watts as well as the 1500 **Q: How big is the cooking area? Description says 8 inch, when boiling water, only the center 5 inch is boiling.** A: The printed ring/ heating area is 8 inches in diameter. The cooktop has 2 glowing induction heat rings when it's on, a smaller inner about 5 inches and the outer 8 inch ring. I know that it adjusts which ring(s) to use depending on the size of the vessel being used. Not sure how it could differentiate whether you're boiling water or cooking something else. I boil water for pasta etc in a large pot and both inner and outter heat rings are on. Hope that helps **Q: Does the burner shut off when you flip your food?** A: No it will not. The unit is designed to stop if the pan is removed for over 70 seconds. If a pan is removed for 10 seconds or less the PIC will automatically resume cooking once its placed back on the PIC. If the a pan is removed between 11-70 seconds the cooking will resume by pressing the "start" button. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This, is an excellent device. *by H***D on September 9, 2026* I like the updated digital controls, time duration is shown now.

I received the unit in excellent condition; no visible damage to external packaging and it arrived on the scheduled date; excellent work NuWave/Amazon. I unpacked the NuWave and reviewed the instructions. Other than the slight odor from the first few uses, as is stated in manual, I have had no problems with the unit so far. I have to say the NuWave Gold PIC is by far so much easier to control the cooking process than the almost new Frigidaire gas range that came with my current home. While that range has control knobs that rotate from Off, Lite, Hi, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and Lo over 195 degrees of rotation; Hi to Lo only covers 115 degrees and only the last 15-20 degrees (2 to Lo) makes any change in the burner flame. My local gas supplier confirmed this is very common for consumer gas ranges. The NuWave is much more like using an electric range such as the GE model I had in my previous home; back when I enjoyed cooking. The last 20+ years, cooking has been more of a chore. Not anymore. I can hardly wait for the next chance to use the NuWave. Plus, given the recent news about home air quality and natural gas ranges potentially going away; I decided it was time to try induction. Since receiving the NuWave my existing gas range has literally become additional counter-space as I haven't used its cook-top at all. Although I saw a number of reviews indicating the keyboard cover deteriorates over time/use; the features and price put the NuWave Gold at top of my list. I'm hoping this problem doesn't show up for several years of use. It would be great if NuWave made the PIC with a better or user replaceable keyboard cover; but that's not offered at this time. I selected the NuWave Gold primarily because it offered the larger cooking surface (I frequently use 7” and larger cookware) compared to other induction units AND more importantly it had 10 degree temperature adjustments. Others I looked into typically had 20 or so settings for cooking and a lot of reviewers grumbled about that; NuWave Gold (and Flex) has around 50. Granted the NuWave Gold does have 6 predetermined temperature settings; but all can be adjusted via the +/- buttons. I have noticed that all but the low preset button will initially display an xx5 temperature value and the 5F part will be dropped once a +/- button is pressed. After that, the display will show temperature by 10's until a setting other than low is again selected. I was so pleased with cooking my first batch of bacon on the NuWave. I started on the Medium selection; but the sizzle was bit too fast. I lowered the temp by 20 degrees and had a wonderful cooking temp that made near perfect bacon. The built-in count-down timer is an excellent feature. It is so convenient to adjust the time so the NuWave will shut down after my preset cooking time is complete. However, I haven't quite figured out how to apply the programmable feature. I understand how to use it; but there's no way to tell if the food has come to a boil or reached a required cooking temp. Or when it's time to reduce the heat and simmer or stay warm. My best guess, since there's no temperature probe like with my microwave, is that you have to monitor a prior cooking process once or twice and record the time it takes. Hopefully your cookware selection and recipe volume doesn't vary by much so that the time you learn works out properly. Plus the program is deleted once power is removed from the NuWave. It would be great to have them remain; especially if could enter say up to ten different user programs. In anticipation of the NuWave, I also purchased new cookware set. A Tramontina HA aluminum, induction ready, ceramic coated set, with insulated handles. It's a beautiful cookware set; but when I started using them on the NuWave they didn't seem to heat up very quickly. Performance was similar to using my old Pampered Chef HA aluminum non-induction cookware on the gas range. Fast heating is supposed to be one of the key benefits of induction cooking. So I set up a comparison with my old stainless cookware that readily passed the magnet test. To compare each piece of cookware, I placed a one inch depth of fresh tap water in the pot/pan with a starting temp ~ 55-60F. I then used a Fluke 87 Mark V multimeter with a type K thermocouple for the temperature measurements. The thermocouple rested in the upper 1/4” of the water in the center of the pan. I used a Poniie PN1500 energy monitor for the wattage readings. All tests used the NuWave on it's maximum “Sear” setting. Time was measured using the countdown feature of the NuWave. The SS dia column refers to the stainless diameter on the bottom of the pot/pan in inches; a similar inch measurement was made for the overall bottom diameter. Obviously the volume of water in each pan varied; but notice the consistency in the heating times and how the wattage reduced according to SS dia. Test results are as follows: Vessel Manu SS dia Bottom diameter Wattage Mins to 180F Water Vol 1.5qt sauce Tra 4-7/8 5-3/16 536-573 7+ 1.5c 3qt sauce Tra 5-1/8 6-1/2 745-771 7+ 2.5c 4.5qt saute' Tra 8-1/8 9/1/4 1200-1256 7+ 5.75c 5qt dutch Tra 6-3/8 7-3/4 1065-1118 6+ 3.75c 8” skillet Tra 5-1/8 6 705-748 8+ 2.75c 10” skillet Tra 5-13/16 7 955-1014 7+ 4c 1/2qt sauce Unk 3-3/4 NA 785-818 2+ 1c 1qt sauce Unk 4-1/2 NA 964-972 2+ 1.5c 2qt sauce Unk 6 NA 1225-1248 2+ 2.25c 4qt pot Unk 7-1/2 NA 1417-1468 3+ 3.5c 5qt dutch Unk 8-1/4 NA 1501-1530 4+ 4c 8.75” skillet Unk 7-1/2 NA 1487-1505 3+ 3.75c 11” sq griddle Green NA 10-1/2 1305-1345 4+ 3c My old stainless set dated from 1980's and was simply marked “stainless Korea” on the bottom. They appeared to be made from 20 gauge material and are fairly light weight pots/pans. I also recently purchased a GreenPan griddle with it's Magneto induction coating and added it to the results. However it could not be filled with 1” layer of water – about 3/8” was all it would hold. Notice how much lower the wattage is and the longer heating times on the Tramontina cookware compared to a similar size SS diameter stainless item. Clearly the very thin “holey” SS bottom panel is not designed for optimum heat transfer on the Tramontina cookware. This was confirmed via discussion with a NuWave representative – thicker SS will work far better. My magnet test also confirmed the Tramontina cookware had a much weaker “pull” vs the old SS cookware. While the GreenPan griddle also had a somewhat weak magnetic “pull”, it's Magneto performance was clearly much better than the Tramontina cookware design. The data clearly shows how well the NuWave PIC is protecting itself with the smaller size cookware and their poorer induction power absorption by reducing output power. What struck me odd is, as the volumes of water varied with each piece, the heating times remained relatively constant within the same cookware sets. While the commonly used “induction compatible” or “induction ready” statements by manufacturers are true; they are clearly not always the most efficient design to use with induction cooking. I'd like to see a “induction optimized” marking for cookware that gets the most efficiency out of induction heating. This “induction optimized” cookware should work as well and heat as fast as good stainless performs on an induction cook-top (consumer testing labs are you reading this?) My takeaway from all this testing is that you should buy good heavy stainless cookware with a strong magnetic attraction for use with the NuWave. The NuWave will perform it's best with that type of cookware; and make you much happier using it. One other thing I'll mention. The NuWave Gold model is fairly large and uses a good bit of counter-space. So when it is not in use, I created a simple wooden stand to hold the unit vertically on it's back edge (see pics). Most wall cabinets are 16” above the counter-top and the Gold will fit nicely at the back of the counter when standing vertical. Please note; NuWave does not offer any stand like I'm describing. I used two 3-1/2 x 8 x 3/4” wood pieces for front and back of the stand. The NuWave Gold uses a 12-3/8” diameter for the 1” thick top section and a 12” diameter for the 1-5/8” thick main body down to the counter-top. I added an extra 1/16” to these two thicker measurements for a felt liner in my stand design. Both of these thick wood pieces were cut from a 3-1/2 x 3-1/2 x 8”. The larger diameter arc was centered 1/2” in from the bottom edge of the 1-1/16” piece. The smaller diameter arc was centered 11/16” in from the bottom edge of the 1-11/16” piece. Arcs were cut on a band saw. The three thinner pieces (two 3/4” pieces and the 1-1/16” piece) were then squared up as a complete assembly; thru holes marked/drilled into these, 3/4” in from ends and 3/4” up from the bottom . One of the 3/4” front/back pieces accepts 1-1/4” long wood screws securing it to the 1-11/16 piece. I used 2-1/2” long wood screws to secure the remaining 3/4” front/back piece thru the 1-1/16” piece and into the 1-11/16 from the opposite side. Felt pieces were cut to fit the stand interior sides and bottom (curved pieces). A spray adhesive was used to attach the felt to the inside of the stand. The stand is simple, stable, and secures the NuWave Gold very well. Hopefully my idea benefits your use of the NuWave and your counter-space. In summary, I would absolutely buy the NuWave Gold again. I'm currently mulling over if I covered my range top with a piece of counter top; then I could buy a second Gold unit, make another stand, have two cook surfaces, and even more usable counter-space! My enjoyment for cooking has returned! ## Frequently Bought Together - Nuwave Gold Precision Induction Cooktop, Portable, Powerful with Large 8” Heating Coil,100°F to 575°F, 3 Wattage Settings, 12” Heat-Resistant Cooking Surface - NUWAVE Carrying Case for Precision Induction Cooktop, Insulated & Water Resistant, Sold by Original Manufacturer, Exclusively for PIC Models - Nuwave Precision Induction Cooktop Gold, 12” Shatter-Proof Ceramic Glass Surface, Large 8” Heating Coil, Portable, 51Temp Settings 100°F to 575°F, 3 Wattage Settings 600, 900, and 1500 Watts --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/28910933-gold-precision-induction-cooktop-powerful-w-large-8-heating-coil](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/28910933-gold-precision-induction-cooktop-powerful-w-large-8-heating-coil) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
