I love my duxtop induction, but you should make sure all your pots and pans are compatible with induction, only my cast irons work with mine.

Second duxtop. We bought a single burner to use while we renovated our kitchen, kept using it for a while, and loaned it out a few times as well.
Do you remember which model you got? I'm gonna go down the rabbit hole of reading reviews and checking specs :P
Duxtop 1800W Portable Induction Cooktop Countertop Burner, Gold 8100MC/BT-180G3. ... According to my Amazon review request email
I cooked with (non portable) induction stoves in various places, and I daily use one: all of them shared the same basic features and in the end, I couldn't see any difference between the models.
Just check the customer reviews for the reliability of the model you're interested in.
I don't know about the quality or how good they are, but IKEA has some portable induction stoves which seem like really good value.
I have a non-portable ikea stove which was very cheap and works just as expected.
I recently used an IKEA portable induction stove in an Airbnb, and did not like it at all. It was very powerful, but basically had only two settings: super high or off. You could adjust it, but that would just mean it cycled more often between super high and off
Our stovetop is having issues and I’d had a similar thought, so I’m hanging out to hear people’s reckons on this too!
America's Test Kitchen does very thorough reviews of lots of kitchen equipment, here's their review of induction cook tops.
TLDW: duxtop 1800W is good, there are better ones but they're a lot more expensive
