Works well, exellent unit
This cooktop is a great way to try induction cooking. It is very fast. The heat control is precise and responsive like gas; maybe better. The pan is a nice bonus. Warning, it may not work with all of your pans, especially if they are all aluminum or copper-clad stainless.
It's portable and lightweight. It will be excellent for home canning. It will also provide an additional side burner for holiday meals.
The fan makes a little noise, like a small microwave. Some pans make a slight whirring sound as current is induced through them. I think this is cool but some may find the sound disconcerting. Both of these attributes are typical of these units.
Been testing TICT-1500W with a purpose....
I'm building some ECO cottages with kitchenettes; therefore, my interest exceeds even that of the typical homeowner. Induction cooking is the most efficient way to cook, so with "eco" cottages, I love the technology and fully intend to use it.
Built-in nduction cooktops cost a mint, so I wanted to try this, plus if you're doing something in the kitchen that doesn't require its use, you can put it aside in the corner of the countertop or even store it in the cupboard. Alternately, you can pull the spare from the cabinet and have two running, no problem.
These are very common in Europe but just catching on here. In 10 years, I predict these will dominate U.S. cooking. Why? Simple, the direct control of gas with the ease of care associated with a smooth electric cooktop. Induction is actually superior in easy care because the cooking surface doesn't get hot, so the overflow from your pot will not create a baked-on mess on the cooktop surface.

Fast and easy
Works with my basic stainless steel pots I bought from Macy's years back. It's a bit noisy - there's high pitch sound at low heat settings. Quiet down at higher settings though. It heats things up very fast, and very easy to clean afterward.
