How to choose
BRUNO Compact Hot Plate: the one most people start with
The Compact is the classic BRUNO size — about the footprint of a sheet of A4, so it sits on the dining table without taking over and stores away easily. It suits two to three people and handles everything from searing meat to takoyaki and pancakes.

Who it suits: households of one to three, tight table space, and anyone who wants a tabletop cooker they will actually use every day. For four or more, or regular hot pot, look at the Oval. (The Grande has been discontinued.)
