I've blogged about my completely possessed electric range in the past - I concluded that there's a fault ASIC in the control panel and no amount of rewiring will fix it.
We're upgrading and I'm looking at induction. Induction cooking uses magnetism to generate heat in the conductive pots and pans (those with a steel or iron core - not aluminum). It's more energy efficient, faster and more accurate than both electric and gas.
So for me this is a three bagger - new cooktop, energy efficiency, and some weird technology I can show off to my friends!
We're going with the big Kitchen Aid model . There are others, by Wolf, GE, etc. but the KitchenAid seemed to cover all power requirements (look for wattage per burner), looks good and we like the KitchenAid brand. It requires a 50 Amp circuit so don't go dropping this thing into your countertop without getting an electrician in there.
