Does the right/left side heat independently?

Yes, I bought it for my parents for Christmas and they love it! It was a must for them to have independent controllers for each side.

Initially yes but after 5 weeks the right stopped working entirely and they wanted be to pay to return the entire blanket for repair but all I needed was new controls. Very very disappointing. Worst customer service ever. Run don't walk to find another manufacturer. I have bought other makes for years and NEVER had a problem under warranty or out of warranty like this.

Yes there are dual controllers that also allow independent auto off or stay on as well as independent temperature setting.

In this case, there's only one interior unit (didn't know it could share units). It works as advertised when cooling. Heating mode can't be tested until later in the year.

as in the description Left side has 900 watts for cookin/boiling. Right side has 600 watts for reheating/simmering so one side can boil a pot that has a few quarts of liquid and the other will just keep it warm/hot the bigger side fairly steady

The vents can direct air to the left or right, but not a hard left or right. More like the left side of the room. But it cools so dang well that I have never bothered with the vents. I just point them to the largest area of the room and I'm good to go!

I have used the griddle on either side. The sear station is not activated unless you turn it on separately from the burners. I have not used the griddle and the sear at the same time.

It doesn't. Even if you put in one slice both will go down. There is no option to use one side. But that's ok it doesn't use much energy.

Yes but more on one side almost not brown on other side elements dont heat as much on that side it can be seen.

Yes, both the hot and cold side have a switch in the back to turn them off.

yes...but, I have sides on mine & it can be warm under there. without sides, maybe not so much.

No, just the bottom and sides. The top needs to be free for heat dissipation.

No... the convection fan kicks in automatically, no separate control. However in such a small unit, I don't feel the convection feature makes a great deal of difference in baking time or any other issue.

Not that I am aware of, but the carafe did not seem to get hot when using the single serve side only.

Heats from the sides. Mine is slightly cooler on the front otherwise nice even heat.

The left side with the larger burner gets HOT. You have to watch carefully to avoid burning things. The smaller, right side, burner doesn't seem to get nearly as hot. If I need to boil water, I start it on the large burner then move it to the small burner to simmer.

top, sides and back do not get hot in my experience. however, I never put it too close to anything and allow normal ventilation.

I think so. I used mine over the holiday weekend and it was the right side that would not light immediately. However when I shield it more from the wind by moving the pan and crank the igniter it would always light. Don't be shy with the igniter.

Yes, the controls work separately which is great. My husband likes his side at a higher temperature than I like mine, so we're both happy!
