HZTzone Electric Warming Tray

I ordered this to use to keep food warm before I serve it to guest and this is a pretty neat idea. It is better than the alcohol fuel and definitely a lot cheaper than the electric heated serving dishes. The reason this is getting 3 stars is because it is a little on the cool end when you set it. At the 140 setting the temperature stayed around 120, and at the 176 setting it stayed around 144. It is still enough to warm your food but it is a little lower than you expect unless you physically test it. I did use this over granite so maybe some of the heat was being taken away by the stone. The mat itself is large enough to put several pans/pots on and I like how it has raised hard plastic to keep it off of the surface of whatever it is laying on. It rolls up fairly easily and cleans off well. You can store it in the cloth pouch provided until you need to use it again. Overall, this will do what you need it to, but just make sure to turn up the heat to the next setting if you are looking for what the written heat setting says. It loses a star because of the heat issue.
