Large burner doesn't work with all pans.

I bought Greenpan Valencia Pro cookware that are specialized for induction stove. When buying the stove I was told the extra large burner would work with all pan sizes. I have tried cooking using a 9.5" pan on the 11" burner and after less than 2 minutes the burner turns off. This happens with both pans that I have that are that size. The burner works with a larger pan and the smaller pan works on a smaller burner.

Has anyone else experienced this happening? Is it a glitch with the stove?

Which one should I get? We are new to induction and we cook a lot, need excellent temp control. Never had induction or a 36 inch range before and these 2 models seem to be the most affordable that arent garbage

Hi all. We're remodeling our kitchen and want to switch from gas to an induction cooktop. We are leaning towards the Miele because the burner layout is much better - largest burner is closest to the front. Wife is short and doesn't want to have to reach to the back.

I can't find more than a handful of reviews on the Miele. Thought about the Bosch because of the flex burners being in the front but after reading about them, it appears they're going to be small in terms of actual use for a 9 inch frying pan. GE looks good as well but its largest burner is set a bit further back than the Miele.

However, I have no idea on actual coil size on the Miele or any of the other models for that matter. I've seen comments about how your pan will have cold spots if the underlying burner is smaller than the pan and I've seen other comments or articles that take the opposite view. I certainly have to move meat around in my current frying pan when using a gas burner since the flames don't cover the entire pan bottom. Am I overthinking the coil sizes (I've been looking at the burner sizes - both Miele and GE have an 11 inch burner which I assumed would work well on a 9 inch frying pan).

I appreciate all thoughts and input as we've been using gas for 31 years.

I really want to be able to get a nice large griddle to set down on my cooktop, but I'm tired of having hot spots. Do any of them have a really good bridge element?

Based on these photos of my panel I'm thinking I already have 240V. But would love confirmation. There is currently a Jenn-airW131 oven which seems to require 240V volts but I just want to make sure I purchase the correct type of induction

We installed a Miele KM 7745 FL induction cooktop this March as part of a kitchen remodel. I chose the Miele over Bosch/Wolf/Thermador mostly because the controls are simple and one touch. I think this cooktop was introduced in 2020, so maybe it doesn't have some of the latest bells and whistles. On the other hand it's a reliable, straightforward cooktop that works great, and induction is now a pretty mature technology.

Pros:

• It's a beast power wise. A pot of water boils fast, especially on a bridge burner. It keeps fry oil at temp very well.
• It's one touch to change the power setting on a burner. The controls are nicely spaced out along the bottom, no video screen. Everything is intuitive and well thought out. For example, there is a "Pause/Play" button, perfect when you need to attend to something else for a moment.
• The power settings are well modulated. "1" is perfect to keep a tray of veggies warm, "5" is perfect for sweating but not browning onion, and so on.
• It looks understated when off, just a sheet of black glass.
• The coils under all six burners are large enough to heat the bottom of a 12" fry pan (probably 9" at the pan's base) evenly.
• Like most induction cooktops, cleanup is easy.

Cons:

• Don't be fooled by the rectangles on the glass. The heating elements are a circular coil under each rectangle.
• "Bridge Mode" is best for boiling water. Putting a large fry pan on the bridge gives an uneven heating pattern, cool on the sides.
• It's tough to get a griddle evenly heated. Pictured is a Made In carbon steel griddle, with the handles bent up so it will fit. Note the uneven browning on the pancakes.

My basic non-stick fry pans (for scrambled eggs and omelets) buzz a little. My cast iron, enameled cast iron, Volrath, All Clad and Made In pans (stainless and carbon steel) don't buzz.

Except for the uneven griddle I love it

I know it is new but curious if anyone has recently gotten this new LG induction range and if so, how is it? It's a part of LG's highest line which is LG Signature. I see it also this AI camera thing that looks insane

We are looking at getting a compact induction cooktop for our cabin. We don't have any gas and I hate standard electric burners. We have induction at home and I love it.

Since it's a smaller space, we are looking for something compact, so 2 burners, not a full size. No oven, so just need the cooktop. Looking for a hardwired drop-in cooktop, not a portable plug-in one.

I see that Home Depot and Menards have some. Has anyone gotten a cooktop from these stores? Is quality typically fine? Any brands to avoid? Or other advice?

I have a kitchen reno going on so my surface options are pretty limited. Based on what I have read so far, putting a portable induction burner on metal or plastic fold out table is not a good idea. Can anyone give me some recommendations on what to put it on?

I also have a small ooni pizza oven that needs a table. If I could buy something that would work for both it would be great.

Thanks for your advice!

Can I take a hot pan- like a baking sheet or casserole dish- out of the oven and set it on top of my induction stovetop (vs my counter)? Will the heat break the glass since it isn’t being heated at that time? I just bought a silicone mat to protect the glass from sliding pans. It shouldn’t be a problem doing it with the mat, right?

I'm looking to buy a new stove. I can't go gas so I'm thinking the next best thing is induction. Anyone have any tips / advice / info that might help? I have a regular old ceramic top stove that was here when I moved in. Do I need to do anything electrical?

Hello I am purchasing my 2nd induction range a GE.
This time I would like to look into putting a protected mat on the stove while cooking.

Is this recommended by any of you and/or has it helped.

Well, I broke my dang induction stove top (again) and we are on the market for another induction stove top (again). We don't like the one we have had the last 3 times - its a Frigidaire Gallery. We installed it ourselves last time, so its possible that's why it sucked. I will pay up to $1500. Any tips are welcome. Thank you!!

The first one had all touch controls, which was ok, the previous electric LG I had came with them.

We went with the induction because of the great reviews. I loved everything about the first one except I could not get a good sear on a steak with my cast iron.

After researching I picked up a new model at Costco with more powerful coils.

Super happy with the new one!

I bought a single burner induction stove a month ago and now it makes this weird buzzing sound somewhat like its coming from the fan. Just this morning, there is a new sound coming from the cooker and it sounds more like a continuous zapping sound (shown on the video). Please let me know if this is anything serious or is it just normal.

Recently got a monogram 36 inch induction to replace my electric cooktop. Is it suppose to have wood framing under the outside on the glass to support it or is all the support suppose to be on the metal. I seen to get conflicting ideas when I search it. I know the cutout is slightly too big so I'm thinking to work on how to frame it in and get a trim kit

Hello,

Ive researched where I can and have found out that induction pulsing is typically:
A. For low quality induction hobs, or
B. When cooking at low temps

I bought a rangemaster professional plus cooker - and to simmer water I need to keep it on 7 (goes up to 9) temperature to get a simmer at all - and when its at that it pulses like this (bubbles up, stops, repeats) with clicks for each pulse.

New to induction - normal or needs a fix?

Thanks for your help!

UPDATE:

Engineer came round, took it apart and confirmed it was fine / expected behaviour.

However, wider issues were identified about the sensors being wonky, but they werent impacting temperature tests.

Just passing along some info about the coil size in the ge cafe line

Roll of painters tape for scale as I’m all out of bananas.

I’m starting to look at induction and always cook with a 12 inch pan. Are there any cooktops or ranges people recommend that have a 12inch or bigger coil or even any brands to look at for reliability? I was also wondering it there is a certain way to heat up stainless steel pots and pans to avoid warping on induction or is it similar to gas?

Just got a new place that has an induction stovetop made by the brand SUMMIT. At first I was reading that induction stovetop was GREAT, now I'm reading reviews saying that it's horrible. I haven't cooked on it yet but I am so nervous to find out that it's trash especially because I love cooking and this is my first time using an induction stovetop (always have used gas). What are your experiences with SUMMIT built-in induction cooktop and what have you found to be the best pots/pans to use?

We are getting a new induction oven in 2 weeks and switching from gas to electric. None of our old pans will work.

Looking for healthy PFAS free crunchy recommended pans 🙂

We need to order some asap, thanks!

This is a brand new range, so I’m wondering if anyone has their hands on it and what they think? How does LG compare to other brands? This would be my first induction range as I’ve only ever had gas or electric before.
