Is there another appliance that might be better suited to this use? Would a slow cooker have a way to cook at regular speed, or a pressure cooker have a way to act as a boiling pot without the pressure? I'm not very interested in using either for its intended purpose (slow cooking or pressure cooking) - my main interest is just in having a temperature-controllable way to boil or simmer things when I can't use a stovetop.
Any suggestions what appliance might work best for this?
