[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just replaced our gas cooktop with the Bosch NITP660UC. We've had induction before and going back to gas in our new house was a huge disappointment. Induction is better in every way. My only (small) gripe is that the controls aren't tremendously intuitive and user-friendly. There is a learning curve.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] looks great, easy to use. the buttons are easy to operate, I did not notice any difficulty with wet hands which was one of the common complaints.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had an Bosch induction cooktop that I purchased in 2017 and it just never quite worked right. But I believe in the Bosch brand so I "upgraded" to the new wifi version and I could not be happier. It works perfectly and performs well every time. I highly recommend this cooktop. Better than gas and without the dangers of gas fumes in the house. Very HAPPY!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has taken some adjustment going from a gas cooktop to the induction range but I am impressed with the speed to boil and, after boiling over with some beans, I was was appreciative of the cooktop alerting and shutting off, saving me a larger mess and burnt pot. Not sure I will use the app much but it has provided a good setup shortcut. The child lock is also a great function. While I don't have kids I do have cats, whose paws set off the cooktop buttons. If not for the child lock they would have turned the range top on more than once.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All of my married life, I've longed for a gas stove. But I live in a neighborhood where gas is unavailable. After my housekeeper broke my glass cooktop, it was finally my chance to purchase an induction cooktop. I LOVE it so much. Why? 1. It heats up super fast. 2. My pans stay clean on the outside, and the inside is much easier to clean, too. 3. It responds to me instantly. If something gets too hot, I don't have to pull it off the burner as I did on my electric stove. I turn it down, and it immediately adjusts the heat level. This is especially handy if something is boiling over. 4. Most of my pans were magnetic already, so that was not an issue. 5. Clean-up could not be simpler with a perfectly smooth surface. 6. I am not sure my new stove has made me a better cook, but it certainly has made me more eager to fix dinner. 7. Although it doesn't cook food faster, it doesn't take me nearly as long to fix dinner since I don't have to wait long for water or oil to come to temperature before I can start cooking. 8. I love cooking my whole dinner on a long cooking sheet that I can set up with different temperatures in different zones. It's easy to serve and easier cleanup.
