Product review (5 stars): Awesome cooktop
This cooktop is very well built. The smooth glass and chrome construction is easy to keep clean. It's very quiet in operation. It heats pans more quickly than gas, it does not heat up the kitchen, the cooktop stays cool to the touch and heat on/off is almost instant. My research shows that it's more efficient than electric and even gas. I use it all the time. Works well when cooking outside and not affected by the wind like a gas grill side burner is. Can safely be used at the table as a warming tray without the danger of flame. It has safety features built in like auto shutoff if pan is removed. You will not be disappointed if you give this a try. **NOTE** Will not work with Aluminum pans. Requires pans that are Induction compatible, such as cast iron, most stainless or steel core pans. Look for the "curly-cue" symbol.
