Have had this cooktop for about three weeks.  We had an induction range before and hoped this Frigidaire would offer the same service.  Yes!  It is excellent.  Obviously the feature that was most important to us was induction ranges ability to heat and dissipate heat rapidly similar to how a gas range can be easily controlled for more or less heat instantly.  This was one of the few induction ranges that offered "button"  or knob control rather than flat surface controls.  It is wonderful.  A feature that we were not seeking but what it has is the chance to "couple" two heat pads to make one long heat surface something like a long grill.  With a long grill (always induction ready), we can once again prepare pancakes, sausage, eggs, etc. very compactly and easily.  Hope this helps.
