We felt exactly the same way bugging a new kitchen last year. Salespeople thought we were being obstinate. Fortunately we found one with knobs. https://www.aeg

It does have auto off on spills, but it's not overly sensitive and only triggers if you really let things boil over. Had it 9 months, can highly recommend this cooker.
- sharken 5y agoThere is definitely a niche market for these kind of cookers, but induction has for as long as I can remember always been a flat surface. That leads to touch controls with all the listed drawbacks, but it's nonetheless what has gained the most support. For most i suspect the aesthetics of one clean flat surface wins out over alternatives, even though these alternatives are more usable for cooking.
- mason55 5y agoFor us the “one flat surface” is about cleaning instead of aesthetics. We cook all the time and out range constantly has crap spilled on it. Being able to wipe it down in a quick pass is so nice.
- kergonath 5y agoThat is another big advantage of induction. It gets much less dirty because it’s so easy to wipe clean each time it is used. That said, it is not necessarily exclusive, we can have a nice flat surface along with a panel with physical knobs on the side. Even with a minimalist look à la Dieter Rams if needed.
- kergonath 5y agoIt looks great! Thanks for the tip, I’ll definitely have a closer look when we remodel our kitchen next year.
