Anyone have an Induction range? Experience with it? I just bought the GE Profile electric one.
However, I won't have it until my kitchen is remodeled in Feb/March
Had one in last two houses and loved both. Just use the right pots for most heat.Nothing comes closer to a real commercial range for the high heat needed for some cooking. Easy cleanup too.

Can you compare it to a commercial style range? I've used Viking and Wolf for the past 10 years, and am getting sticker shock at what they cost now as I'm building a new home this spring. I just have been concerned that I don't have the combination of control of the simmer and the high heat for proper searing on induction. I'd love to save the money if I could.

Here - you should find these conversions helpful. Comparing 30 inch cooktops and 36 inch cooktops.
30-inch
•two elements of 1.4 kW (about 10,000 BTU/hour), and
•two elements of 2.3 kW (about 16,500 BTU/hour)
One ofhe least-expensive 36-inch (five-element) induction cooktop has:
•a 1.45-kW small element (about 10,400 BTU/hour),
•a medium element of 1.9 kW (over 13,600 BTU/hour),
•two larger elements each of 2.3 kW (over 16,500 BTU/hour),
•and a large element of 3.7 kW (over 26,500 BTU/hour).
I believe Viking is 22,000 BTU/hour.
