After reviewing numerous brands and features we landed on the Frigidaire Gallery induction cooktop. We have been using the cooktop for a month and couldn't be happier. The heat is almost instant and a full 5qt pot boils in 3.5 minutes. The heat adjusts faster than gas. Add to it the cool cooktop and easy of cleaning and e are very pleased. Some mention it makes a noise, we find the very minimal hum is mostly noticeable when on power boil only and is not bothersome at all. The timer feature is very useful and it turns itself off if it does not sense a pot or pan on the burner. We are very pleased with the purchase. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
