Totally, you’ll never get this experience with any other style of range.

Because that's not an induction stove. It's a heating element one that glows red.

Those red hot things are incandescing, like old light bulbs. Except with heating elements, they’re designed to primarily give off heat when they incandesce, rather than prioritize light.

We have been on induction for 20yrs. Our grandparents on 15. We only broke 1 plate and not nearly as catastrophically. Was just a big crack along the entire thing.

@papalonian could use the elements to light the joint.

Ceramic ones are the same except they have shittier heating. Also what kinda shit plate was that and what the hell did you drop on it? Ours cracked because someone dropped a huge ceramic baking dish on it and it was just a crack jot a fucking hole in it.

No idea, I’m from the burner supremacy gang and the picture is from a search engine. But I DID have a large variety of similar images to choose from.

But why? I fucking hate burners. They are slow, send more heat into the room than the food, pain in the ass to clean and also release possible carcinogens into your air. The only advantage they have over induction is that they cannot crack. I seriously don’t get what people see in them.

Wok cooking is the only thing I miss from having a gas stove

Fuck, I’ll take resistive over gas. It takes some skill, but I’m used to it. I’ve only used gas in other people’s homes and I just didn’t like it nearly as much.
I will go induction whenever I have a choice though, it just by all measures sounds better

they’re great for caramellizing whole onions, but you could also buy a blowtorch

I have that exact same stovetop in my apartment. It’s kinda shitty in general, but it’s not induction

That looks like a shitty whirlpool or other shitty generic $150 home depot glass top coil burner, not induction.

But that’s a resistive (ceramic) stove?

Yeah my old landlord provided that exact model
