Lower settings are not even - hot cold hot cold
The lower settings seem to work on a timer basis similar to a non-induction microwave. High power for a few seconds followed by no power for a few seconds. This will make your small pot of liquid boil like crazy, then stop.. then boil like crazy then stop. Not ideal. Even on the lowest setting which is supposed to be only 100w... which it may be on average, but not at any instant.
I don't know if other portable induction cooktops also work this way as I have only used built-in models previously that have full turn down control. Sorry Ikea, I know this is cheap, but I was expecting better control. Its going back to the store.

Use it daily
Heats up very quickly. Takes time to find the sweet spot for cooking. Simple saute around 3-4 setting.
Works best on my cast iron pan, Scanpan is a little slower I expect that is due to the fluted base of the Scanpan.
Small complaints is having hold the child lock on to start, the fan is on the loud side, and if use forget to turn it the unit off at the power point it will start up again as you clean. cooks food great though.

Brilliant Product - Best functionality and price yet.
Previously, I published a review on Kmart’s portable induction cooktop. You may read it here:

Soon after, Ikea introduced their own portable induction cooker at a similar price. At $59, their “Tillreda” boasted to have won a Red Dot award for its design, and is only $10 dearer than its Kmart sibling.
I couldn’t resist buying one and testing it out.
First thought is that it’s actually quite big. The form factor is a bit longer and wider, and sits at around the ...Read more

Please help. So I got the Tillreda cooker thing and I bought a stainless steel 4-quart pot that is magnetic but I still can't get the Tillreda to do anything besides say E1. What am I doing wrong?

How can I vary the size of the pots on the tillreda? It seems I can only use my large skillet and not a shall sauce pan to heat things

Check your small pot is magnetic. If it is not magnetic it won't work on an induction cook top.
