Zojirushi Gourmet dExpert Electric Skillet for Yin Yang Hot Pot

I’d been holding off buying a hot pot for a while. I thought an induction cooktop was the way to go but the reviews for induction plates are all over the place and way too many choices. I also needed a yin yang pot so I could eat vegan on one side. That would have been an added purchase. So when I came across this Zojirushi electric skillet with a non-stick yin yang pot, I thought, this is a no-brainer! The brand is very established with an excellent reputation and this set comes with the pot I need PLUS a griddle to cook your meats and vegetables on if you so choose. I’ve never used the griddle but it is a solid, quality piece as is the hot pot. This is NOT some cheap knockoff. The non-stick and weight of the pot and griddle are EXCELLENT! We now cook hot pot once a week. Each side easily holds a bag of soup base plus a cup or two more. One soup base bag probably fills one side half way. Plug it in, move the temperature slider to high, and put the lid on. It heats up the liquid pretty fast and maintains the heat . Note: Without the lid, it’s slow to heat up, as expected. Performance exceeds my expectation. Very happy with this purchase! Yes, I highly recommend it!

Bought this as a gift. Excellent quality, Eeasy to use, easy to clean & more than enough for 4 ppl. I was initially worried bc of the reviews that said it didn't get hot enough/wattage too low (i like my soups molten), but it comes right up to a boil (especially with the lid on). We did not try using the griddle yet, bc my husband was worried it would smoke (like the one at the restaurant), but i suspect it won't get that hot - next time! My only quibble is that i found the stove top instructions a little confusing: Is it ok to use the pot on a gas stove top, or not? I gather the grill pan is a hard no. I thought i got this on sale, but do not think so now - so check your cart/price b4 you hit place order.

Had been wanting one of these for a while and it didn't disappoint. The split pot allowed for different soups between mine (spicy) and my family's (not spicy). Heated well and quickly and cleanup was easy due to the non-stick surface.

Love it! Had this brands rice maker and it makes phenomenal rice so wasn't surprised that this hot pot is also amazing!

I used it a handful of times and it performed well. Temperature control is excellent . We enjoy the hot pot so, so much.

The media could not be loaded. It’s a great size for 2-4 people and fits a small dining table. We didn’t use any extension cord and felt that the base is safe enough to place on our white wood table (with a heatproof pad underneath) during the cooking process. It stayed cool even when the hotpot was simmering/boiling and when we did the grilling too. It’s also sturdy yet easy to setup and cleanup is a breeze. For a quicker process, we placed the hotpot pan on the stove then transferred it back on the base once the water started boiling. We cooked the hotpot dishes on the table. Afterwards, we did the grilling. The only thing is that there is nowhere for the oil to runoff so we just used paper towels to dab the oil off. No biggie. If you do hotpot or grilling often enough, it can justify the cost in the long run. It looks like it will last long and will withstand wear and tear. A great investment overall.

The Zojirushi Yin Yang Hot Pot is the perfect size for 2-4 people. The center divider allows for two different types of soup for the hot pot. The temperature control was easy to use and was able to bring the soup back up to boil in no time after we put in the ingredients. The pot was easy to clean after use.Unlike some reviews that the bottom of my pot is still looks new after use. Not sure why some reports that it turned black, maybe they use it on an open flame?Will try the grill when the weather is warmer so I can use it out door, don't want to set off the smoke detectors in the house..LOL

This is perfect hot pot
