I've used this one for 2 years. Works great https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FDXPTNP/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I've been using this dual burner model in our apartment for 6 months. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07FMTY8Q8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I love induction cooking
Is there any noise difference? I have friends that are put off by the 'buzzing'.... doesn't really bother me and I've read the sound comes more from the pot than the stove...
There is a small noise under some conditions. Never bothered us. It does depend on the pot, temperature, power level. Never bothered to investigate. I got these to try out induction cooking before buying a new range for our new house. Decided we like it. Bought a GE induction range. Not installed yet.
Thanks. That will save me a ton over this - 36-Inch Pro Grand® Commercial Depth Dual Fuel Range - PRD364WIGU | THERMADOR
Still using my induction cooktop after 1 year. Actually it is my go-to cooking appliance if I have a pan/pot that works for it. So much faster than the electric range we have. Grilled cheese sandwiches are great and can keep up with the "Can I have another?" Not rushing out to buy more pans (since I only have 1 cooktop), but I got a new frying pan that is working out really well. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EKTO0YE Wirecutter: New Product Reviews, Deals, and Buying Advice is the site that suggested that pan and very happy with the results.
There is an invisible induction cooktop with both 120 and 240 V versions. One of the neat things about this one is that the controls are not on the cooking surface.
I've been using this one in my apartment for 2 1/2 years so far. It works great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01FLR0ET8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I agree. The touch controls on the surface are sometimes difficult. That's why we decided to go with this GE induction range. It has knobs on the front! Café™ 30" Smart Slide-In, Front-Control, Induction and Convection Range with Warming Drawer|^|CHS900P2MS1

Induction cooktop are great for both low and high power. Much safer also since the cooktop itself doesn't get very hot.
Very interesting. It looks like you can control both the wattage (600, 900 or 1500) and the temperature (10 degree increments) on that unit, creating a slow, even heat if desired. Some of the complaints about that product seem to be user error. One person says it doesn't maintain a low simmer, but I wonder if they had it set on a high wattage with a low temperature, creating a cycling effect. Another person said it took forever to sear, but perhaps they had it on 600 watts instead of 1500 watts. I might have to pick one up to give it a try. One of my peeves with my parents' induction range is the lack of temperature control, with only a power scale from 1 - 10 with an auto simmer option that doesn't work very well.
The units I've used can go to very low power but they do this by cycling on and off below some point (? 600W). This can be a problem in some cooking.
