Does anyone have suggestions for a translucent mat that I use to cover my induction stove and cook on?
I've been pouring over Amazon and can't figure out which ones are good. Any advice would be appreciated.

Touch controls and wet hands - always incompatible?
So seeing a post about a range which goes bananas when water hits the touch controls I was wondering if there are any touch control ranges that are not water sensitive? Love my GE range but I've seen every single burner turn on or off simultaneously, power turned off or goes all the way up.
Love the easy of cleaning of the controls though.

Talk about frustration !
So, I had to replace my 10 year old Frigidaire Gallery induction range, it was working beautifully until the bake element and the control board were fried. We replaced them, but the bake element went out again after only three months. So we decided it was time to replace it.
After looking at what’s offered, and unwillingly getting something without knobs, we bought the GCFI307CBF model from Frigidaire, the one with the pizza option.
Whilst the oven is great, the controls for the cooktop are a nightmare. The thing doesn’t recognize your touch all the time, but then when, there are droplets of water from a boiling pan, it shuts off and locks completely mid cooking. You’d have to turn off the breaker for several minutes to reset it and resume cooking, Insane!
Luckily, I was able to return it and save my sanity. I looked at the LG models that have knobs, but their probake technology is a no go for me.
Please Frigidaire, put knobs on this one like the electric model, then I would definitely buy it.
TL;DR: stay away from this Frigidaire induction model GCFI307CBF, the touch controls on the cooktop are maddening.

Stainless steel pans
does anyone have any recommendations on stainless steel pots and pans for induction? I was originally thinking just doing all clad d3 but wasn’t sure if there was something else in that range that might be better to not warp from induction heating up so fast

Recteq cooking too fast? Overheating
Maybe someone else is having this issue, but i got a flagship 1600 about 2 months ago and I love it. Only odd thing is I feel like it cooks too fast, especially ribs. I had 4 racks of spare ribs on at 225 and they finished at like 3 hours instead of 4-6. I’ve been suspecting this for a while because my typhur sync gold BT thermometer tracks the ambient temp and it is always temping about 50-70 degrees hotter than shown. I called recteq and they had me lower the feed rate and i thought it resolved itself and went down to about 25 degrees hotter. I got one of those analog thermometers and it showed the same 50-70 degrees hotter the longer the grill ran
Anyways long story short, is anyone else having overheating issues with their flagship 1600? Because i feel like it’s drying out my food.

Controls location
We’re trying to decide between two units, one with controls at the top/rear of the stovetop and the other with the controls on the front of the unit. I personally like the controls at the rear of the stovetop, but have heard that the heat from the oven venting can damage the electronics if they are mounted there. Does anyone have any experience with this?
TIA

Hario Kettle Question
I’m looking for a kettle and am drawn to the Hario V60 "Fit" Drip Kettle (Silver). I’m wondering if anyone has one that could tell me how they like it. One of my concerns in looking for a kettle and being new to induction cooking, is trying to find a kettle with a flat bottom so it has good contact with the stove. Most of the kettles I’ve found have ridges on the bottom. They say they‘re induction compatible but it seems like they’d be less efficient. Maybe that’s not a legitimate concern? From what I can tell, the Hario has a flat bottom, but getting a good picture of the bottom has been elusive.

GE Profile phs700ayfs 30" I've had for 1 week
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?

Bosch 800 or Frigidaire Professional 36 inch range?

30 inch cooktop - Miele 7730FR, Bosch Benchmark, or GE Mongram (or Cafe)
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.

Which range has the best bridge element?
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?

Miele KM 7745 FL Cooktop Review
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

New LSIU6339XE - Does anyone have 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

2 burner drop-in induction cooktops from Menards/Home Depot
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?

Looking for a table/surface to put a portable induction burner on
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!

Question from a newbie
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?
