What it is

One well, at the table

Tabletops are the single‑well sets: small enough to sit on the dining table, the counter or the poolside cabana, and built around the same 20 × 20 cm element as everything else. S28 is the hot‑and‑cold tabletop set with lid; S24 is the compact set, also offered as the S24 Instant Hot Tabletop with a 304 stainless steamer; S20 is the smallest; the T40 is an acacia wood deco base that turns an H1X into a hot trivet.

At the table the element is the whole story: a hot pot that stays at temperature through the meal without a burner, a dessert plate that stays cold in a warm dining room, a sharing dish that does not need a flame under it in front of children.

How it works

Four steps · no flame · no cord
01

Choose the element

H1X for a hot dish, C1 Pro for a cold one, T30 Heat Blaster where there is no charging.

02

Drop it in

The element sits in the set's well; on the T40 the cell sits inside the wooden base.

03

Dish on top

The set's own dish, a pot, or a board.

04

Serve at the table

Nothing to light, nothing to plug in, nothing to spill.

Performance at the table

Hold figures are the element's: three hours at 80°C or two at 110°C on an H1X, eight hours chilled on a C1 Pro, and around forty‑five minutes of steam heat from a T30 pack in the S24 Instant Hot Tabletop. The S24 steamer reaches steam within a minute of adding water.

A small dish loses heat faster than a large pan, so the lid earns its place on the S28. For desserts on a C1 Pro the reverse applies: a small cold plate in a warm room stays colder for longer than a wide tray would.

Lifespan, care and warranty

Melamine frames and dishes are dishwasher friendly; the acacia T40 is wiped and oiled, not washed. No electronics in any set. Warranty is one year on factory functions.

What it costs to own

A tabletop burner costs fuel every sitting and puts a flame within reach of a sleeve. An S28 with an H1X costs a recharge, and the same set runs cold for dessert with a C1 Pro.

For hot towels, hot pot and dessert service the sets replace plumbing, burners and ice buckets with one element and one frame.

Best applications

Where it earns its place

Hot pot and shabu at the table

H1X or T30 heat under the pot; no butane burner in front of the guest.

Tableside desserts

C1 Pro under an S28 keeps chocolate, cream and fruit cold through the course.

Room service and in‑villa dining

A dish that arrives hot and stays hot, with nothing to plug in.

Hot towels

Oshibori service from an S24 steamer without a towel warmer or a water line.

Poolside and cabana

Cold plates on a C1 Pro in full sun; hot snacks on an H1X with no cable to the bar.

Counter and retail display

A single hot or cold item on a T40 or S20 at the till.

Premium residential

The T40 acacia base under a Sunday lasagne; the S28 for a New Year hot pot.

Not the right tool for
  • Multi‑pan buffet lines; use Universal or Classic.
  • Cooking; the sets hold food that arrives at temperature.
  • Unattended use around children with a Heat Blaster: the pack produces steam.
