I have one,and I use it occasionally. For fried chicken (keeps the
oil at the right temperature) and for large batches of stuff like
french toast, pancakes, etc. It is also a boon during summer, as it
doesn't heat up the house, as would turning on a stove burner.

And it comes in handy when it comes time to have a large group over,
as I can keep the food hot.

That being said, I don't use it that often. But it does come in handy
often enough.
