      We had a couple of pots that weren’t magnetic, but already had enough without them so no big deal. Our’s has some precision cooking thing that requires expensive cookware, but I $ont trust that stuff anyway so we never got them.

      The biggest direct benefit of the induction for us was that the house didn’t get nearly as hot or as smelly as with the gas stove.

          Having an open flame burning and releasing fumes is gonna generate smells, even with a good vent (to be fair, ours is not a good vent). Induction has nothing like that. You put your pan/pot down, you hear a low humming noise, and it just kinda magically hears up. The only smells are from the food.

            I wish it was a low humming noise. The noise from those things goes straight through my brain like the old CRT TVs, but 100 times louder.

            I have to stick to a standard electric range until they build in sound dampening or something.
