Product review (5 stars): Induction Cooktop
My husband and I were frustrated with our electric cooktop for several reasons and did not want to purchase another electric one.  We began to consider an induction cooktop as gas was not a possibility.  We read all the reviews, consulted Consumer Reports, and decided to try it.

My husband must have been more excited than he let on, as he had it installed within an hour!  We have had it about six weeks, and so far, we LOVE it.  The variability of cooking levels is  much better than our (good quality) electric cooktop and the instant heat is remarkable.  We live in Arizona, so the idea of less heat in the house during the long summer season is very appealing as well.  I (almost) look forward to cooking, as it functions so well.

If there are any negatives to consider, it would be that it is a little hard to see where the actual "burners" are and that we are still trying to figure out how to keep the surface as shiny and pretty as we would like.
