Why Gentle, Even Heat Matters

Reheating food isn’t just about temperature — it’s about preserving flavor, texture, and aroma. Microwaves and direct heat can leave “hot spots” or dry edges; New Kitchen Lab’s graphene pad is engineered to raise temperature smoothly across the entire vessel, so food revives, not recoils.

Fast and Predictable Performance

The pad’s graphene thermal layer delivers speed and uniformity. From a room temperature of 77℉, you’ll feel warmth in 8 seconds. In practical testing the pad reaches a stable 212℉ in about 7 minutes. Unlike systems that spike and fall, the pad’s temperature ramps steadily, preventing sudden overcooking or scorching.

Why this matters: faster warm-up reduces energy use and shortens the time food spends in a temperature range that encourages moisture loss — so meals stay juicier and more flavorful.

Design & Materials — Thin, Clean, and Practical

Slim profile with durable finish

At only 0.15 in thick, the warming pad is unobtrusive on the table yet robust in performance. The outer layer is made of food-grade silicone — non-toxic, heat resistant, non-slip, and incredibly easy to clean. A wipe with a damp cloth removes sauces, grease and crumbs.

Six precision temperature presets

Choose from 122℉, 140℉, 158℉, 178℉, 194℉, and 212℉. Each preset is tuned for typical kitchen tasks — from keeping coffee warm to restoring soups and casseroles to table-ready heat.

Smart timer & auto-off

Timer control is set in 1-hour increments up to a maximum of 6 hours. At the end of a preset period the pad automatically powers off — a safety measure designed to prevent accidental long-term heating and reduce fire risk.

Compatibility — Works with the Dishes You Already Own

The pad is tested for compatibility with a variety of safe cookware: stainless steel, ceramic, frying pans, glass, enamel, paper meal boxes, and aluminum foil. This flexibility makes it useful in home kitchens, office lunches, and small catering situations.

Tip: For the most even transfer, use flat-bottomed glass or stainless containers that maximize surface contact.

Engineered Support: 0.28in Feet for Ventilation and Stability

Underneath the pad are engineered support columns that raise the surface by 0.28 in. This elevation serves three important purposes:

• Ventilation: Lifting the pad creates an airflow gap that helps dissipate heat from the bottom, preventing heat from concentrating on the countertop.
• Even pressure distribution: The feet are rectangular and arranged in an offset pattern so pressure is distributed across the tabletop rather than focused on a single point.
• Structural stability: The supports and tested column length provide enough rigidity to support up to 10 lbs without collapse or lateral shift. That avoids sudden surface depressions when a heavy dish is placed down and reduces the risk of spills or burns from unstable footing.

In short: these subtle feet protect your countertop and keep your hot dishes steady — an engineering detail with real safety impact.

Safety & Everyday Use

Safety is built in: food-grade materials, steady temperature curves, automatic shutoff, and the ventilated base all reduce common hazards. Still, follow basic precautions:

• Do not place unlabelled plastics or PVC items on the pad.
• Vent sealed containers before warming to avoid pressure buildup.
• Use oven mitts when handling hot dishes and place the pad on a heat-resistant trivet if needed.

The pad is designed to minimize risk, but prolonged unattended heating (beyond the 6-hour limit) or covering the pad with insulating material can create hazards — the auto-off is an important safeguard against these scenarios.

How the Technology Feels: Real Moments, Real Benefits

The appeal of New Kitchen Lab’s graphene pad isn’t just technical — it’s emotional. Imagine family members arriving at different times yet every plate staying warm. Imagine slow weekend meals where nothing loses its texture. Imagine bringing a steaming bowl to the table that stays warm until the last spoonful.

This is the practical value: faster heat (8s to feel warmth; 7min to 212℉), even delivery across the vessel, and safety features that let you relax instead of watch the clock.

Quick Specs & Compatibility Table

Where to Place It & Best Practices

• Place the pad on a flat, heat-resistant surface for best airflow under the feet.
• Prefer flat-bottom cookware to maximize contact and even heating.
• Vent containers and avoid covering the pad with cloth or insulation during use.
• Wipe the silicone surface with a damp cloth after each use; do not submerge the pad in water.
