Developed and designed by professional chefs. StirMATE Smart Pot Stirrer provides an extra hand in the kitchen with patented features that allow for a sleek and unobtrusive design. Constant stirring prevents food from sticking and burning while developing more flavor and creaminess. Its powerful high torque gear motor is silent and effortlessly stirs through thin and thick foods. The patented smart stirrer self-adjusts to pots and pans 6 - 12 inches in diameter, and 3 - 9 inches in depth. The StirMATE is small and low profile, and stores easily alongside utensils. The StirMATE is made in the USA using FDA High Temperature (520° F) food grade plastic that will not melt. The StirMATE is powered by both a rechargeable Li-Ion battery and charger adapter (included), and operates for over 13 hours per charge. Do not operate the StirMATE over a hot stove while connected to the charger.
