Absolutely stellar performance for my use cases, which are
A. hash browns
B. boiling water
C. eggs
Biggest issue:
A. cookware compatibility
Biggest benefit (aside from energy/no gas burning emissions):
A. extremely controllable temperature
Note: Getting other folks to try the induction stove did not go well; I am a technology early adopter and willing to experiment, no one else here is. They are comfortable with using what they have used, even if there are issues (lousy burner design here, for one).
@ai6yr I am very happy with our induction range. One benefit I would add that was part of our decision: if you have very young children who might go around curiously turning knobs, buttons, etc. the induction is far safer since there isn't a risk of gas emitting, an open flame, or any electric burners getting hot.
Has anyone recently switched from a gas to a new induction stove? What do you think of it? How responsive is it compared to gas?
I'm remodeling the casita in back and wondering if I need to replace the gas lines or if I can go with electric.
Note: I already understand everything relating to indoor air quality, fossil fuels, cost and safety. I'm looking strictly at usability right now, compared to gas. Reports on modern units are important because I'm told they've improved a lot lately.
