The MESTIC Single Hotplate Stove MKT-120 is a portable electric cooking solution designed for caravan owners, motorhome enthusiasts, and campers who need an extra burner without the fuss of gas bottles. This freestanding 750W hotplate gives you the flexibility to cook anywhere there's a mains hookup, making it ideal for seasonal pitches or when you want to expand your cooking capacity beyond your vehicle's built-in hob. The 15cm cooking surface handles standard pans comfortably, and at 1.3kg, it's light enough to pack without eating into your payload.?

The control dial offers 6 heat settings so you can simmer sauces or bring water to the boil, whilst the red indicator light tells you at a glance when the unit's powered on. The heat-resistant housing stays safe to touch during use, and overheating protection cuts power if temperatures get too high. Non-slip feet keep the stove stable on worktops or tables, which matters when you're dealing with hot liquids in a confined space.?

At 23.4 x 20.7 x 6.6cm, this hotplate tucks into a cupboard or under a bed when not needed. The 750W power draw means it works on standard campsite hookups without tripping the electrics, though it'll take longer to heat than a 1000W model. It runs on 240V only, so you'll need a mains connection rather than running it from a leisure battery setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the MESTIC MKT-120 work on a 6 amp campsite hookup?
Yes, the MESTIC MKT-120 draws 750W at 240V, which equals approximately 3.1 amps. This fits comfortably within a 6 amp campsite hookup limit, leaving headroom for other appliances like a fridge or phone charger. The lower wattage makes it suitable for sites with limited power allocation compared to 1000W or 1500W hotplates that often trip standard hookups.
What size pans fit on the MESTIC MKT-120 cooking surface?
The 15cm diameter cooking surface accommodates pans up to approximately 20cm base diameter. Standard camping pans, small saucepans, and single-portion frying pans work well. Larger stockpots or family-sized frying pans may overhang the heating element, leading to uneven heating. The freestanding design means you're not restricted by surrounding burners, so pans with wider handles fit without interference.
How long does the MESTIC MKT-120 take to boil water?
The MESTIC MKT-120 boils one litre of water in approximately five to six minutes when set to the highest heat setting. The 750W power output means it heats more slowly than higher-wattage hotplates but prevents overloading campsite electrical systems. Heating times vary based on pan material, starting water temperature, and whether you use a lid to retain heat.
Does the overheating protection on the MKT-120 turn the unit off permanently?
No, the overheating protection is a thermal cutout that temporarily interrupts power when internal temperatures exceed safe limits. Once the unit cools down sufficiently, the protection resets automatically and the hotplate becomes operational again. This safety feature prevents damage from running the unit empty or blocking ventilation, common scenarios in cramped caravan spaces.
Which types of cookware work best on the MESTIC MKT-120?
The MESTIC MKT-120 is a solid plate electric hotplate, not an induction hob, so it works with all pan types including stainless steel, aluminium, non-stick, cast iron, and copper. Pans with flat, thick bases make better contact with the heating element for efficient heat transfer. Warped or thin-based pans heat unevenly and take longer. This universal compatibility means you don't need specialist induction-compatible cookware.
