Magnetic Hotplate Stirrer Kit — 2000 RPM, 520°F, Thermometer & Retriever
Product description
Optimized performance: This magnetic hotplate stirrer delivers adjustable stirring from 100 to 2000 RPM with very low noise, combined with 180W of heating power able to reach temperatures as high as 520°F. An internal magnet designed for high-temperature operation helps ensure dependable long-term use.
Essential accessories included: The kit ships with a high-precision electronic thermometer rated at ±1°C accuracy and covering a measurement range of -58°F to 572°F, plus a magnetic stir bar retriever to remove stir bars safely from hot solutions.
Robust construction: The unit is built on a die-cast aluminum alloy chassis for a compact yet sturdy footprint. Its all-aluminum heating plate spreads heat quickly and evenly, improving performance consistency and service life during repeated use.
Versatile application: Intended for stirring and heating low-viscosity liquids, this hotplate stirrer suits a variety of settings including industrial processes, agricultural labs, healthcare environments and academic or research laboratories.
Complete set for immediate use: The package contains one magnetic hotplate stirrer, a stir bar retriever, a digital thermometer, supporting stands, a cross clamp, a spare fuse, a stirring bar, a power cord and a detailed instruction manual. Lifetime technical support is provided.
Please note: The heating control adjusts the power output of the plate but does not guarantee maintenance of a precise, constant liquid temperature; it is not a closed-loop temperature controller.
Pros
- Strong 180W heating up to 520°F
- Wide, quiet speed range (100–2000 RPM)
- Comes fully equipped with thermometer and retriever
Cons
- Cannot maintain a locked target liquid temperature
- Not designed for high-viscosity mixtures
- Some units may exhibit control issues
VerdictA compact, robust magnetic hotplate stirrer that pairs powerful 180W heating (up to 520°F) with near-silent stirring to 2000 RPM. The aluminum construction and full accessory pack make it ready for routine lab tasks, though the heating knob changes power rather than holding an exact target temperature.

Controls failed — unit ran at full power
The speed and heat controls didn't work properly; it stayed at full output with no way to dial it down.

Highly recommended!
Excellent product with a clean, minimal design. It functions as a magnetic stirrer with heater and includes a universal stand, stir bar and digital thermometer. I'd buy it again for my lab and recommend it.

Perfect for jewelry pickle heating
I use it to warm my pickle solution after soldering jewelry. Heats up quickly and does the job; the included thermometer helps me monitor temperature.

Temperature control ineffective
Turning the temperature control did not produce useful adjustment; the setting seemed ineffective.
