Pros & Cons
Pros
This is an amazing gadget. No other induction cooktop is capable of this. If you're a food nerd, this thing opens up possibilities.
My reviews are honest, unbiased…always as objective as possible. The temperature control is fabulous. It's fun, if things like this can actually be fun.
Fans turn on with a lot of gusto to keep the unit cool. It heats up much faster than the regular stove. The glass top is super strong, and the double fans allow you to do things like long deep fries without fear of overheating.
The power on chime is very charming. The controls are intuitive. The only real downside is i wish i could program it to turn off after a period of time without beeping.
The probe and usb ports are well protect with silicone flaps so that they remain closed at all times. Control freak is most accurate when using small pans with thick aluminum disk bottoms.
Cons
This is not the first thing of theirs that i've bought. It is unclear how long the warranty is good for, and what it covers. If you have a problem after your amazon return period expires, you're out of luck.
Even if the induction disc works, it will probably take a long time to boil. No presets for temperature so every time you turn on/off you need to set the temperature with the knob.

Price
Once you get over the price this is really cool
The only big down side is the insanely high price
I got a warehouse deal for 1300
It is way too expensive in that environment and too awkward to use especially for older persons
Shipping
It just takes forever to get there
Have only cranked up my 6burner thermidor once since it arrived a month ago
Packaging/appearance
We werent sure when we opened the box but then we began to play
I guess i could have guessed this from its name and the fact that it came with a padded carry bag
Competitiveness
But more than that it lets me set specific temperatures and turns out the best omelets ever not that one should have to spend 1... Read More
What has really blown me away is that the temperature control capabilities really are as fantastic as breville claims
I dont know why there arent more competitors for this appliance
My main reason for adding this review is to give another opinion on demeyere atlantis and proline pans operating on this device

There is a small manual with very little information mostly pictures no recipes like most other consumer cooking devices would include
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
When i plugged it in it asked me to set the date and time and it defaulted to 2016 and indeed this device is behind the times more recent devices have wifi access and an app
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
It has a simple lcd display that is not touch sensitive so you have to use one of the foil buttons which i expect to fail after a few years of daily use which has been my experience with them on other devices secondly there is a sensor in the middle of the heating area which moves up and down when you place a pan on it i guess it senses when a pan is present and also is used to sense the temperature

However it has some molded rubber around it and the movement of the sensor is quite large and i am not sure what kind of rubber it is presumably silicone but i wonder how long it will last also
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If it cracks the whole device would be unusable as liquid could enter into it
