However for our new place we went gas because: - we wanted a kitchen range rather than a cooktop, and induction ranges are rare - induction wok tops are mega$$$$$ - actually induction in general is $$$$ - couldn't find a good quality top that would match our proposed kitchen I could happily have gone with the highland gas/induction combo but like I said above it's both expensive and I couldn't find an oven to match. As a solution though we'll get a baby Belling benchtop induction unit for those times when induction just beats gas (eg boiling water, melting chocolate) Re: Gas Verses Induction 19Dec 10, 2010 3:45 pm I used an induction cooktop before at my parents place. Whilst it looks great and is easy to clean, it might depend on how you cook. I love stir frys, so a wok is a must have for me. I tried to use a wok on their cooktop and it basically did not get hot enough, and just stewed it Not sure if the newest induction cooktops are capable of getting enough heat into a wok, some newer designs have a concave looking spot, but yeah it was a deal breaker for me in my house so we went with the Gas. Re: Gas Verses Induction 20Dec 12, 2010 8:46 am We bought the Electrolux slimline induction cooktop (90230) and I love it! Unfortunately some of our pots don't work well but hey, I've wanted new pots for a while anyway so I get to have those and the local charity store get my old pots. Its really easy to clean up and I love the way it keeps the temperatures well - like when melting chocolate, making pancakes and doing stirfries - nothing is burning like it used to with gas (mind you, my gas system was about 30 years old, I'm sure the new technology is much better). I also like how my cooktop automatically shuts off within 30 secs if no pots are placed on it so you can't leave it on by accident which is great around kids. I also love how it looks and the timer function is great as well. 4 10817 I want to build a decking to the drawn shape outlined in black. The problem is how close can I build to the gas hot water unit? Will I be able to build around it and be… 0 20219 you need a fridgie to answer but I would think you vac the whole system then add gas if you have a leak, unless it is new install with the gas already loaded, in that case… 1 3650 |
