I'm an induction cooktop fan. I've had several. This is the most expensive one I've bought. It cooks like an induction cooktop should, though I've had cooktops that cook more evenly, rather than in pulses on low heat. The big disappointment is the timer. On all induction cooktops I've had before the timer controls the cooking elements. Set the time and the element shuts off when the set time is reached. That's very convenient. On this one, the timer is just a timer, it doesn't control the elements, and it keeps chiming once the time is reached. It doesn't even turn off by itself after a while. This cooktop does not have the features I was expecting and took for granted. Had I known this, I would never have bought it.
