After reading the Amazon ads and the sunpentown site, I wondered of those three
temperature settings were the only ones -- they didn't really make it clear.
The only possibilities I can think of are for either crude sous vide cooking, or
for braising.
Thanks for the report. Induction cooktops, at least at the low end, seem to be
hard to shop for since no one gives you full specs, and the manuals don't seem
to be available online.
