When it comes to boiling water, this cooktop gets the job done like none other. This was the primarly the main reason I went with thi unit, and I’m very satisfied with it for this purpose. Boiling water for pasta, blanching, or kettle use is a breeze, and significantly faster than my gas stovetop. I had hoped it would be useful as a general purpose cooktop; it is not. It does not offer enough control for other cooking. The burner is all on or all off during the different power settings, and this results in uneven heat distribution in cast iron (both “bare” and enameled), as well as in high-end clad pans. The discrete power settings prevent precise tuning of temperature and heating for a simmer, meaning sauces and soups will probably either get too cool or boil.
