Zojirushi EP-PFC20HA, Gourmet d’Expert® Electric Skillet for Yin Yang Hot Pot

Bought this as a gift. Excellent quality, Eeasy to use, easy to clean & more than enough for 4 ppl. I was initially worried bc of the reviews that said it didn't get hot enough/wattage too low (i like my soups molten), but it comes right up to a boil (especially with the lid on). We did not try using the griddle yet, bc my husband was worried it would smoke (like the one at the restaurant), but i suspect it won't get that hot - next time! My only quibble is that i found the stove top instructions a little confusing: Is it ok to use the pot on a gas stove top, or not? I gather the grill pan is a hard no. I thought i got this on sale, but do not think so now - so check your cart/price b4 you hit place order.

The Zojirushi EP-PFC20HA Gourmet d’Expert® Electric Skillet has quickly become my go-to for in-home hot pot and Korean BBQ nights. The even heating across the wide surface delivers authentic flavors without hot spots, and the adjustable temperature control makes it easy to simmer broths or sear meats perfectly every time. It handles both yin yang hot pot splits flawlessly – one side gentle simmer, the other side boiling strong – and transitions seamlessly to KBBQ with great grill marks and fat drainage. I do recommend picking up an oil splatter guard for KBBQ sessions, as the high sides help but extra protection keeps the counter clean during fatty cuts. Pros: Excellent even heating for hot pot broths and KBBQ searing Versatile temperature range suits multiple cooking styles Durable nonstick surface cleans up easily after messy meals This skillet elevates home dining without needing a restaurant setup. Essential for anyone who loves hot pot or KBBQ – pairs perfectly with a splatter guard for the full experience. Highly recommend.

I would like to give this product a 5 stars but it came used even though we ordered it new. Was really looking forward to using it. Getting a replacement though. Will come back to an updated review. Update* Amazon has sent me a replacement. Hands down the best Hot Pot Skillet combo.

The Zojirushi Yin Yang Hot Pot is the perfect size for 2-4 people. The center divider allows for two different types of soup for the hot pot. The temperature control was easy to use and was able to bring the soup back up to boil in no time after we put in the ingredients. The pot was easy to clean after use. Unlike some reviews that the bottom of my pot is still looks new after use. Not sure why some reports that it turned black, maybe they use it on an open flame? Will try the grill when the weather is warmer so I can use it out door, don't want to set off the smoke detectors in the house..LOL

Great product, but easily scratched and heavy heavy heavy.

Just love this skillet. The brand is very good for all electronics and we replace our rice cooker with the same brand. Have used this hot pot and it was great for a hot pot dinner, easy to clean and is an adequate size. Looking forward to more hot pot meals in the future. Very happy with this purchase.

Very convenient. Well made Japanese product as always with high quality sourced materials. For hotpot, always pre-boil your stock on the stovetop before putting it in for quicker start-up. We find that getting the skillet to a boiling point can take some time. We are happy with this purchase.

So good!

Very nice pot, great for hot pot in a winter day, better than the portable stove solution we used before.

It’s good for hotpot and continent

I really like this pot! The size is just perfect for a family-size gathering of 3 to 6 and functionality is simple. The device looks elegant and has been part of a few great hot pots already. Looking forward to using it for a long time to come.

Excellent quality and very easy to use. It heats up quickly, cooks evenly, and is perfect for both hot pot and BBQ. Cleanup is easy too. Great purchase!

Awesome electric skillet good for frying and hotpot! I was able to heat up my hotpot within 10-15min to full boil. Be careful about twisting the skillet with the electric stovetop as the stovetop skillet scratches easily. I was able to bring it camping and cabins. When the water boils even with food in the pot does not steam up the room! Overall very happy with my purchase. Only negative thing I can say about it is that it is a bit bigger then I expect.
