I imagine as more people adopt induction it'll get cheaper. I think most folks just assume it's an over-priced electric stove, so there's a learning curve to adoption.
Anecdotally, I love my induction. It saves me so much time! When I first bought it a few years back, I was razzed quite a bit by co-workers whose only personality trait was they liked food. "You can't char peppers!" they'd exclaim. It's so funny to me to see so much passion for gas stoves.
- tomatotomato37 4y agoThat's something that could happen. What could also happen is that builders and landlords use it as an excuse to cheap out on kitchen appliances even further while charging the same, the majority of potential gas stoves gets replaced with cheap underpowered coil ones, and the quality of life of the lower 95% degrades even further

It's well worth trying a portable one, especially if you don't have a slow cooker or pressure cooker already.
