Have a 2 burner side one with my Wolf gas range. Like it. I picked up some very inexpensive pots at IKEA that are induction. It is fast, super adjustable, shuts off if pan is not on it, does get warm but not hot. (I have 8 grands and I am sure they will be able to use it once the get older.) I have not burned myself on it. I like having it there but I do use my gas cook top more. Might be habit? Have only had it 2 1/2 years.
