In what ways does an induction cooktop underperform compared to gas? It dumps more heat into the pan and less waste heat into the room, doesn’t produce any combustion byproducts, can be dialled into a specific temp, including very low simmering ones, and is safer as there is no hot element or open flame.

- alexvoda 5y agoInduction, while great in many ways, has plenty of disadvantages: - potential incompatibility with existing cookware - many induction stoves achieve lower levels of heat through TDM (turning on and off at max heat) which is horrible - incompatibility with curved bottom cookware like a wok - lack of knobs - annoying beeping
- katbyte 5y ago3 of these have to do with the induction cooktop chosen, not induction. And the other two with the type of cookware. But yes woks are not really compatible with induction, but then they also are not the best with coil or residential gas cooktops either.
