ooh, i'm listening. Getting an induction hob in Jan so this could be a good call. Trying to have less stuff on the surface and currently down to kettle and toaster.

out of interest, is stove top more or less efficient than electric?
is that even possible to quantify?answered my own question
- Electric kettles are slightly more energy-efficient, coming in at around 80%, vs 70% efficiency on the stovetop. However, this is evened out by the fact that gas is cheaper per unit than electric. Then you need to factor in the fact that stovetops take longer to boil water vs an electric kettle. On balance, it probably works out roughly the same, but perhaps slightly cheaper to use an electric kettle.

Sori Yanagi stovetop.
How much? Sorry but this is peak Japanophile wank.
It looks like a charity shop find.
Edit: looks like you can get it for as little as £90 so maybe not that crazy https://celebrityhomeware.com/products/sori-yanagi-stainless-steel-kettle
