The induction stoves I've had the "pleasure" of working with were all very efficient to get water boiling. For every other cooking technique they were terrible. Perhaps I had bad luck with the models I encountered. Maybe it was caused by the pans or maybe it is just getting used to it. But the fact they're almost exclusively controlled by buttons is absolutely a deal breaker for me. I can't handle the stress of 4 pans and pots with buttons not responding because of a smudge somewhere or just because f*k me. Not to mention the models that have 2 sets of controls for 4 burners, where you have to select the appropriate burner first. Those abominations have to be designed by someone who only boils eggs or cooks ramen or hates cooking in general.
