We moved to a house with an induction hob and I was prepared to hate it as a long-time gas user but... it's fantastic. Apart from not being able to char stuff directly in the flame (a rarity anyway) I can't think of any other drawbacks. It's crazy powerful on full tilt. Will boil a pan of water from cold in about 30 seconds. Way quicker than the same amount in a kettle. I put a single portion (couple of inches deep in a small pan) of lefttover room temp pasta sauce in a small pan earlier tonight and cranked the smallest ring to full power, turned around to get a spoon and it was bubbling away before I could start stirring. Fucking witchcraft. And I've had no trouble at all finding a setting on the 1-15 scale that works for any requirement. Consistent too and not affected by the breeze from an open window etc etc. Being able to clean it with one wipe (during cooking if necessary) is a bonus too. *convert
