There's a learning curve, but it's great for us
on May 23, 2020
Posted by: John in Vancouver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] PROS - 1) we cook a LOT of pasta, and it boils a large amount of water in about as much time as it takes me to casually get the pasta from the pantry, weigh it, get out some bowls and seasonings.
2) when something boils over, cleanup is pretty quick and easy. Just remove the pot and turn off the power, wipe it up, and put the pot back on. It returns to boiling quickly.
3) water boils in a teakettle faster than it boils in the microwave (for instant oatmeal, herbal tea, etc.)

CONS - 1) if the power is on the highest setting (P for powerboil), it REALLY BOILS. Like a volcano burbling out lava kind of boiling. Once I add pasta to the water, I almost immediately turn it down to 7, otherwise it spits out water from the pot.
2) we had to get rid of our copper-bottomed pots obviously, but there were more stainless steel pots that wouldn't work than we expected. I think it has something to do with whatever metal(s) are inside the bottom of the pots. Most stores are closed for covid-19 right now, so we're a little short on pots until the IKEA reopens.
All in all, we love it, and when we stayed at a hotel recently, the old-technology stovetop seemed extremely slow and archaic. We'll stick with induction from now on.

Love cooking with induction
on May 27, 2020

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first induction cooktop. I love how fast I can boil water and how precisely I can adjust the temperature. Much closer to gas cooktops in terms of the control it offer you. It takes a little time to get use to it but overall very happy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought to replace electric cook top. Fast (especially Power Boil). Installed easily and has worked beautifully. Had to buy all new cook ware, but it was worth it.

Great value for induction top!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this a month ago and so far its been working great after it replaced another reputable brand. If it continues consistently working with no issues we will be very pleased and encouraged for more products from Frigidaire especially for its dollar value.

Induction is great
on June 3, 2020
Posted by: Our first induction
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this about a month ago and it is our first induction cook top. We have found cooking was easy to adapt. Read the directions and it was easy. We now cook our bacon on the cook top as opposed to the micro. It tastes better. We would purchase again, it is a great product.

I purchased this about 2.5 months ago. Having trouble with the self sizing heating element. I have tried numerous induction safe cookware and still heats unevenly. Will contact customer service.

I love this cooktop
on June 8, 2020
Posted by: GMcGo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you cook A lot as I do,this device is the best gift you could give yourself.
My first impressions were you feel no heat in the air around the cooktop,like gas or radiant electric.
I was amazed 2 quarts of water steaming in 20 seconds then boiling at 3 mins!
I am 2 months in and can't imagine ever using either gas or conventional electric,I have seen a drop in electricity costs using it.
I use silicone burner protectors to keep from scratching the surface and cook through them with no issues.Only the pots and pans get hot not the burner,takes some getting used to but the level of precision and efficiency is wonderful.
I love this cooktop!
