The Cuisinart ICT-60 is a portable double-burner induction cooktop that fits the compact (24-inch-or-less) brief at 23.5 inches wide, making it a credible two-pot solution for dorms, RVs, boats, patios, or a small kitchen overflow. Its standout design choice is an asymmetric 1200W/600W burner pair that, unlike many dual portables, lets both burners run at full power at once without robbing each other. Reviewers generally praise the fast induction heat-up, simple per-burner controls, glass surface, and 5-year warranty, though several note the 600W right burner is really only suited to simmering or warming. Reliability appears mixed, with scattered reports of uneven heating, warped pans, and weak customer support. Overall a sensible compact pick for cooks who want genuine two-burner flexibility and accept that one zone is the 'small burner' of the pair.
- — Two independently controlled induction burners fit a 23.5-inch-wide countertop footprint, giving real two-pot cooking in a compact, kitchen-free space
- — Asymmetric 1200W and 600W burners can run at full power simultaneously, so raising one burner does not throttle the other (no power-sharing penalty)
- — Each burner has its own on/off, heat level (8 left, 5 right), and 150-minute timer with automatic shut-off
- — The right burner maxes out at only 600W with 5 settings, so reviewers treat it as a warming/simmer burner rather than a true second high-heat zone
- — Combined draw is 1800W on a single 120V circuit, the ceiling for both burners together; heavy simultaneous high-heat use is constrained
- — Some owners report uneven heating, warped induction pans, early failures, and complaints about Cuisinart customer service
