Kids are heading off to college and becoming, for the first time, independent. Teach them a skill that will benefit them their whole lives: how to cook. The Fagor 2-piece induction cooking set is a great back-to-school gift that will provide years of valuable use without taking up precious dorm room kitchen space.

This Fagor induction cooking set is practical and effecient. Considered one the most eco-friendly products for its efficiency and safety, induction cooks 50% faster than gas or electric cooktops and boils water in seconds. With induction cooking, there are no flames, smoke, or gas emissions making this an extremely safe and convenient portable cooking solution for a college dorm. In addition to the safety features, induction cooktops provide the most efficient way to cook. The unit uses 90% of the energy produced compared to 50% with other cooking methods. The energy is directly supplied to the cookware by a magnetic field, so only the diameter of the cookware gets hot.

The induction cooktop features 10 power levels with temperatures ranging from 140ºF to 430ºF and the operating panel features a chart which relates the power settings to 5 cooking functions - Melt, Warm, Boil, Fry and Sear - and its exact temperature, making learning to cook easy and fun.

The induction cooktop also has an automatic safety shut off feature that will shut the cooktop off in 30 seconds if no cookware is detected and a 150 minute timer that lets you cook meals in advance.

Its compact size and standard US household electricty makes the Fagor 2-piece Induction Cooking Set an ideal tool for college dorms (check with your school to determine if an induction cooktop is a permitted dorm room appliance), small apartments, and RVs and campers with electrical outlets.
