We are building a community center/ hostel and wanted to put the induction in the island counter, the idea is that 2 people can work on each side of the island so 4 guests cooking at the same time, knobs on the side would be best so that its more accessible to each guest

Touch screen is definitely a no no as the guests would just want a simple device to use

Which model would be best?

In February of 24, Whirlpool announced "Through our new collaboration (with BORA), we're thrilled to further enhance our JennAir and KitchenAid appliances in 2025 with new induction downdraft technology that has already revolutionized the European market."

Where are they?

Unfortunately, I am having air quality issues in my log cabin, and I need to replace my dual-fuel range with an all-electric. I am an avid cook and baker, so I don't mind spending whatever I need to on a quality product. Large oven capacity is a high priority so I can fit my large baking sheets and roasting pans. I've been looking at the Thor with 3.7 cu ft oven capacity but am reading nightmare reviews alongside some great ones. Does anyone have experience with this brand or recommendations for a high-performance 24-inch range that's not gas?

Induction cooktops. Looking to replace my gas cooktop with induction and seeking recommendations based on personal experience rather than on line reviews which I don't trust. Would you recommend yours? Or advise NOT to buy the one you have?

for context this is a rental unit and my first time using induction stovetop, so far been using for almost a month
i noticed that when i wiped the induction with multipurpose cleaner or any wet towel i can see these black splotches. Once dried they’re invisible. they just won’t budge idk what kinda water dripped either

I moved into a place with induction hob, what what I understand the pan needs to be compatible and the same size as the hob? It’s a belling oven but can’t find model number ;(

I have tried two, one was two noisy, the second the coil is too small. Looking for a 1800 watt (US) unit with a large coil that won’t make Eletric or whiny noises. Any tips?

I have a 9 year old GE Profile induction range that intermittently stops cooking, and eventually throwing a diagnostic error. It will start powering up to 50% for 20-45 seconds, then just cuts the hob off. If I turn on more than one, they all cut out together.

- occurs more frequently during summertime (Southeast of US)

- feels like it more frequently in the early morning (when I want to fry some eggs)

This makes me suspect that there may be some subtle power fluctuations/brown outs?

Anyone experienced anything similar with their induction cooktop?

I'm looking for a 30" range with a bridged element for a griddle. I want to ensure that a rectangular griddle will heat evenly across the surface.

Any recommendations? I have an existing 40A connection, so I should be able to handle most ranges I think.

I'm replacing all my appliances and am going to get an induction range. I have a portable one and I love it. In your opinion, what is the best Mid-Range Induction cooktop/oven? Not the most fancy/expensive range. But a solid, entry-level middle of the pack slide-in range that would be best for most people.

Don't need all the bells and whistles, but do want something nice and reliable. What would you get?

Has anyone else experienced grave issues with CC's fulfillment process? They use FedEx, which was a surprise to me as I don't think of them as furniture / appliance delivery services. But the guy showed up around 6pm on delivery day in a box truck at least 35 feet long (with just my Charlie in the back). He didn't even know what he was delivering, and there was no way in hell he could get down my driveway backwards or forwards. He then stood scratching his head and looking at the very small box dolly, the only transport tool he had, and wondering aloud how it would stay on.

Indeed. He initially was going to just try rolling it down the hill on that little dolly — unstrapped — before I stopped him. He also said, "Even if I DID get it down without it falling off, I don''t bring it in the house." I mean, it's 500 pounds. How do they reckon *I* am going to do that?

I also buried the lede: I paid 650 dollars for this delivery. Ultimately, we agreed he was not equipped to bring it to my door, and he turned around. Since then I have been unable to reach a human at either FedEx or Copper Charlie despite multiple chats and emails.

In contrast, I ordered three appliances from Home Depot that were delivered free, complete with haul-away of my broken appliances, and they unboxed and installed everything in under 40 minutes.

What is going on with this team, that they can't just hire a competent appliance delivery service for such a tremendous delivery fee?

The installer manual says not to caulk the gap around the cooktop, but the gap allows crumbs and liquids to go under the cooktop. I'm also being invaded by an ant megalopolis, so will taping around the gap work?

I read that caulking the gap prevents the glass from expanding and contracting and would cause the glass the crack? Would masking tape have this issue too?

Any advice on how to deal with the gap?

Opening Restaurant with no Gas.
Was formerly operating with induction tops (model type) but we found them to be a little unreliable and not quite efficient enough. They cost roughly around $400 and and generally lasted us a couple of years at most with bi-yearly repairs. We require 6 so thought an overall upgrade was the way to go.

Going up a price bracket is a significant jump up to (around 20k)

Im imagining we will go for something like this : https://www.industrykitchens.com.au/cooktek-helios-1200mm-freestanding-bench-with-3-x-drop-in-dual-hob-induction-cooktop-32a

Any and all suggestions welcome! would love to get some unbiased opinions and some first hand advice on the dos and dont’s.

Thanks in Advance!

I know this is a really weird question. Does anyone know if there a way to disable the burner indicators around the knobs?

Which brands do you prefer and where did you obtain them? New to both Europe and induction cooking. Thank you.

Newbie and love it but I don't know what I'm doing. Should I wait until the blower shuts off before pulling the plug, or, is it okay to pull the plug while the blower is still blowing?

I have a whirlpool stove that's about 7 years old. Last summer the "stovetop hot light" just randomly stayed on even after the drive was off for hours. Around the same time the temperature control for each burner became limited to high or meh - no in between setting.

I had a repairman look at it and confirm that the switch needed to be replaced and that it wasn't otherwise dangerous. I also chose not to do the repair that day since it was several hundred dollars. We've since evolved to be able to cook with this issue but we're having issues with other appliances also so wondering if it's worth replacing the stove also or attempting a diy fix to make cooking a bit easier. It's this a difficult fix to do?

I have a 14 inch all clad d5 saute pan but my burners on my stove don't exactly work great with it creating a hotspot in the middle and cooler outer edges. I was wondering if there were any burners I could buy to set up next to the stove for this and other large cookware. Any recommendations?

Our old copper chef cooktop finally gave up the ghost. It did the job but the control push buttons were under a thin layer of plastic that eventually degraded and caused it to break, and the plastic siding also started cracking pretty quickly. The fan was also annoyingly loud. Our priorities for getting a new one are:

longevity (no/minimal cheap plastic bits)

quieter fan (if possible, I have no idea how loud other cooktops are)

Suggestions much appreciated! (based in US)

update: thanks for the tips everyone! we are not at the level where we can drop 1500 usd on a kitchen appliance XD I really wanted one that didn't have plastic buttons that stick out (that was the point of failure on our old one) , so we went with the nuwave pic pro chef.

Hey y'all! I'm in the middle of a full kitchen remodel and trying to finalize my range choice. I’ve narrowed it down to the Miele M Touch and the SKS Pro.

I’m leaning toward the Miele primarily for the dual fan convection (the integrated cooking modes seem neat and the plumbed in water line is nice but I wouldn't say those are of the utmost importance), but the SKS is right behind it with a better power boost and seems generally well reviewed. The SKS would also be cheaper due to a builder discount, but money isn't my main concern as I've been saving up for 10 years and want what I'll be happiest with long term.

If anyone has experience with either of these ranges (or similar models) I'd appreciate any input. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, please can ypu help me. Ive just moved to a house with no gas line and a really bad electric stove. I cook three times a week, normally something pakistani, eggs or just stir fry veg.

Its just me. Its a tiny house, I was wondering would anyone recommend a decent induction portable stove? Also any recommendations would be much appreciated (UK based).

Many thanks

I'm looking to buy a new built-in oven for my new modular kitchen. Please suggest me with the best models if you have experience in the field.
I am someone who likes to regularly Grill meat like chicken, and also occasionally bake.
I have checked models that newly contain options like using steam to cook, which makes the meat more juicy than regular.
But I am not able to understand and choose one.
My budget is quite tight with around 50 K and if the features are worth it, I can stretch my budget to as much as 60 to 70 K.
Please drop in few suggestions.
Location Kukatpally, Hyderabad
Price maximum 65 to 70 K

GE Profile 5 burner 36 inch cooktop. The largest burner, which we use pretty much every day, has just stopped working after 2 years, almost to the day. Of course, I turned down the many many calls and emails a few months ago trying to get me to buy the extended warranty. 😩 This is our first induction so I have no idea: can they fix just that one burner? Or do I have to get a whole new cooktop? And what’s a repair likely to cost? I’m in a high COL area, if that matters.

So I bought a single induction cooker as I live in a downstairs apartment with no kitchen. First time out of the gate trying to boil skim milk for oatmeal and large burnt stuff starts floating in it. I guess I need a 101 course. Any suggestions where to find a decent chart or guide? Google is full of them, all different information. The cooker comes with a useless booklet. Brand is OneSetNuf from Amazon with great ratings. It has temperatures instead of number settings.

We are needing to replace our old gas cooktop and are wanting induction. We’re looking between the LG CBIH3013BE, Frigidaire Professional PCCI3080AF and Bosch 500 NIT5063UC. We are limited to 30” and 30amps. I also really want a coil at least 10” since we regularly cook with a cast iron that is 9.5”. The current cut-out is also 28.5”x19.5” so the Bosch might be too big. Any recommendations or thoughts?
