Conversely to all the induction hob praise I absolutely hate the ones in our new house, It's a decent spec Neff one but I find it horrible to use compared to Gas. Far less temperature control, constantly beeping at you, useless for Woks or anything where you want heat up the sides, not compatible with a load of our pans, just horrid.
Given the choice I'd definitely have a Gas one.

Is it just your pans that are the issue? We have triple ply le creuset pans which work brilliantly with our neff induction hob. Superb control, easy to get even heat across the base of the pan, super responsive, power move is really useful and the ability to set timers for different pans is a huge bonus.

this is the sort of input I was looking for.
the thing about induction hobs that worries me is it feels like there's plenty of scope for certain brands/models to make absolute shit ones making it a mine field and we don't really have the income to replace if it sucks. all i'm worried about really is instant direct heat that's easily adjustable. our old cooker had ceramic hobs that moved at a glacial pace and it was the most miserable experience cooking anything so i can't face that again.
