China is the world's largest adopter of induction cooktops. Wok cooking isn't a problem. You can even buy induction cooktops specifically shaped for woks. Can we please retire this silly talking point now?

Their wiring supports more than twice the watts of a standard North American power outlet. Better electric kettles, better induction cookers, etc.

  This is true of standard wall outlets which are 110V but not for integrated appliances like ovens and induction cooktops which can pull 200+ volts from your breaker panel. The problem in the USA isn’t your power, it’s your weird habit of buying combination stove-and-oven units. Stop it.

    Stoves are often 400v here in Europe at least.

    It really is silly, as wall mounted ovens are so much nicer to use in practice, and moreover occupy real estate nothing else is usually using at that level.
