And if you have pans that aren't, an induction plate (so you can use the other stuff) is fairly inexpensive as well.

- imp0cat 3y agoI'd hesitate to recommend this. Why? Because these inserts are both inexpensive and ineffective. ;) I'd rather pick proper cookware (eventhough the initial investment will be much higher, the "running costs" will be lower).
- Broken_Hippo 3y agoThe initial cost isn't higher if you are buying new pans. New, cheap pans usually work for an induction stove. But you might not have new pans, nor the money to replace all of them. Especially if you rent and have no control over what stove gets installed when your current one breaks - or just move into somewhere to discover the induction stove. It is kind of like buying toilet paper: It doesn't matter if the 24 pack is cheaper if you only have the money for the 4pack. Running costs don't always matter if you don't have money to invest upfront. And to be fair, they aren't inserts. They sit between your stove and the cookware. The plate heats up and heats up your cookware, much like your pans heat up to cook your food. It might take slightly longer, but it won't realistically be worse than heating up a cast iron skillet. And you have a stovetop you can use.
