Does this have a heated hot plate?

H Tom. It does have a heated hot plate that shuts off automatically. I thought it was very weird to have a hot plate under a thermal carafe, but it works. My goal was coffee that was really hot and stayed really hot for the first 45 minutes, and it does that. We have no regrets.

Hi No it does not. That is one of the reasons the coffee stays so nice. The thermal does it job, and you have no burnt taste. If you put hot water in the carafe first and keep it in there for a few minutes, it will keep the coffee nice and hot for hours. Hope this helps.

Hot plate only heats during brewing process. It's fully automatic. No way to turn on or off. Coffee stays hot for hours due to thermo carafe. After months of constant use I give 5 stars!

No it does not. The base of the maker is plastic. The brewed and heated coffee is kept in the caraf. It keeps the coffee warm for approxiimately 8-10 hours.

Colonel is right. I assume it is to warm the cold pot, something to do with heat transfer. I am amazed how long the thermal pot keeps the coffee warm. The awkward pouring when not a full pot is less important to us than warm good coffee hours later.

Only is hot during brewing process. The heat plate does not stay hot, since the coffee is kept in a thermal carafe, and therefore does not continue to cook the coffee. This was one of the main selling points for us. We love ours! It is amazing how long the coffee stays warm in the carafe.

No it does not, however, it heats FAST, however, I loved the iron but it quit working after only 4 months. The return process is a pain, but I am getting mine replaced though the cost of replacement is nearly the cost of the iron after cutting the plug off, returning it and the $8.00 postage to have it replaced, not to mention the postage of returning the product itself.

Yes, it does get hot. Use your silicone cover or an oven mitt. It's worth it, the food its delicious!

Yes it does have a warming plate. It doesn't get that warm, I doubt you'd even notice it on the cups.. If you want to make sure your cup is nice and warm press the rinse button first to get a shot of hot water, tip it out then select whatever type of coffee you want. EDIT: I measured the temperature change this morning. When I first switched it on, the plate read 70'F. After 1 hour it reached 76'F.

Not that I know of, mine didn't, but if you buy this be warned the outside and the underside gets extremely hot and cooks too fast.

No! It's advertised but this particular model does not have the pre-heat feature! I was not very happy when I discovered this!!

Unfortunately, no. I wish it did. Nor can you set it to turn off. When the preset cooking time is completed, it switches to warm.

I bought two different hot plates. No it is not cordless , no it does not stay hot for long like some of the ones that I had in the past. However it does get very hot and I would turn it off at the time the food is served. Still love it and cannot live without it. It is great for entertaining.

The one I bought is the single burner and yes, it gets VERY hot. I purchased another hot plate before buying this one. The other one I bought was garbage. The Waring gets hot enough to fry things beautifully. You certainly would NOT want to touch the plate when it's hot, you would definitely severely burn yourself. Great unit!

No, not at all. The only part that gets hot is where the heated air blows out of it.

No the warming plate has no cover but it's great for keeping the food warm!

It does not, but that certainly would be helpful. I use my tongs if hot, or wait until it cools off.

I believe it does. It's been a while since I used it though. But I'm pretty sure it does. You set the temperature and it stops heating when it reaches it.

Yes it does heat. Do not waste your money if you want something that is deep. We wanted a combo that was deep. It does toasted cheese ok just do not add much else.
