Brentwood HP-3170W 1.5-Liter Multi-Function Electric Hot Pot Cooker in White
At a Glance
- What it is: 1.5-liter multi-function electric hot pot - boils, steams, simmers, sautés, and deep fries.
- Power: 600 watts with two heat settings, slow and fast.
- Interior: Ceramic non-stick under a vented tempered glass lid.
- The differentiator: The power cord detaches completely, so the pot goes to the table as a serving vessel.
- Certification: cETLus approved.
- ⚠ Before you buy: Hand wash only, and there is no temperature dial - just two fixed heat settings.
One appliance, most of a kitchen. The Brentwood HP-3170W boils, steams, simmers, sautés, and is deep enough to actually fry - fries, fish, mozzarella sticks. Its 600-watt element and ceramic non-stick interior sit under a vented tempered glass lid so you can watch without lifting, and the power cord detaches entirely, which means the pot goes from the counter to the table without trailing a cable across the room.
Key Features
- Genuinely Multi-Function: Boil, steam, simmer, sauté, and deep fry in one 1.5-liter pot - the whole point of the format for a small kitchen.
- Ceramic Non-Stick Interior: Noodles, eggs, and rice release without a fight, and the pot wipes clean instead of soaking.
- Removable Power Cord: Detach the cord and the pot becomes a serving vessel you can carry to the table. This is the feature that makes it a hot-pot-dinner appliance and not just a cooker.
- Two Heat Settings: A slow setting for simmering and a fast setting for a hard boil - simple, and it is what most cooking at this size actually needs.
- Vented Tempered Glass Lid: Watch the pot without losing heat, and let steam escape instead of boiling over.
- Overheat & Boil-Dry Auto Shut-Off: It protects itself if it runs dry - the failure that destroys most cheap hot pots.
- cETLus Approved: Independently safety-certified.
Before You Buy
- No temperature dial: Two fixed heat settings, slow and fast. Enough for boiling, simmering, and frying at this size, but it is not a thermostat.
- Hand wash only: Let the pot cool, then wash the ceramic non-stick interior with a soft sponge. Skip abrasive pads.
- Sized for one to two servings: 1.5 liters is right for noodles, soup, or a shared hot pot - not a family stockpot.
- Soft utensils only: Silicone, wood, or nylon. Metal will scar the non-stick surface.
- Do not run it empty: The boil-dry shut-off is a safeguard, not a feature to test.
Perfect For
- Dorm rooms, studio apartments, and hotel long-stays
- RVs and offices - anywhere you have an outlet but not a stove
- Shared hot-pot dinners: cord removed, pot in the middle of the table
- Ramen, instant noodles, soup, boiled eggs, and steamed dumplings
- Small-batch frying - fries, fish, mozzarella sticks
- College send-offs and first-apartment gifts

Frequently Asked Questions▼
Q: Does it have a temperature dial?
A: No. It has two fixed heat settings - slow and fast - not a thermostat. That keeps it simple and is enough for boiling, simmering, and frying at this size.
Q: Can I really deep fry in it?
A: Yes, it is deep enough for small-batch frying, and Brentwood pitches it that way. Use the fast setting and do not overfill with oil.
Q: Can I take it to the table?
A: Yes - that is the point of the removable cord. Detach the cord and carry the pot by its cool-touch handle.
Q: Is it dishwasher safe?
A: Hand wash only. Let the pot cool, then wash the ceramic non-stick interior with a soft sponge.
Q: Is 1.5 liters enough for two people?
A: For noodles, soup, or a shared hot pot, yes - it is sized for one to two servings.
Care & Use▼
- Let the pot cool fully, then hand wash the ceramic non-stick interior with a soft sponge and mild detergent. Skip abrasive pads.
- Never immerse the base connector or the power cord in water.
- Use silicone, wood, or nylon utensils - metal will scar the non-stick surface.
- Do not run the cooker empty. The boil-dry shut-off is a safeguard, not a feature to test.
