[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you switched and are happy, what do you like about induction?  Do you miss anything about gas?[/quote]

The only thing I don’t like about my induction stove is that mine forces you to use certain size pans on certain burners. Most of the time this isn’t a problem but when cooking with several pots at a time it is really annoying.[/quote]

The answer to this is the Thermador Freedom, I’ve had it for 5 years and it is the best ever. I’m a long time induction convert though (I’m from a country where they are much more common and much cheaper) so haven’t had gas for years. It seems a bit primitive now.[/quote]

+1. We installed a Thermador Freedom last year and LOVE it.  My main concern with switching to induction was loss of a griddle, which we use every weekend for pancakes, grilled cheese sandwiches, etc.  With the Freedom, you can put any size pot or pan on the cooktop and the mechanism recognizes the size of the pan with no dead spots.  It's fantastic.  Also love the easy cleaning and fast boiling water, as others have mentioned.

My only gripe with the Freedom is the controls can be a bit finicky sometimes, especially if I'm cooking with wet hands.  I thought the controls on the Wolf were a bit better.  But the no hob design more than makes up for it.  I'm a complete induction convert and will never go back to gas. [/quote]
