Ours is the made out of only the finest Chinesium that a few hundred bucks can buy from the billionaire with the unfortunately-shaped rocket ship, so I'm seriously managing my expectations.
At lower power levels (I run that mode, the temp control seems to be crap) it cycles on and off rather than doing PWM or some other fancier control. That's a bit disappointing, but it also wasn't $1600+ like the USA-made Volrath.
That said, 3500W is some serious power. Um, a guy I know, not me of course, is thrilled to have a 220V 15A plug in the kitchen. Between that cooker and a UK-sourced kettle there's probably a place in house inspection hell for him, but at least tea's ready in <90 sec.
