Homeowners have good things to say about this safer stovetop.
After switching to this next-gen stovetop, a homeowner visited r/inductioncooking on Reddit to leave a review.
"We switched from gas and are using a Costco Tramontina set along with a Good Grips carbon steel pan," they wrote. "We 100% wouldn't go back. It's better in every way."
An induction stovetop uses a copper coil to create electromagnetic energy, which then directly heats induction-compatible cookware. Because of this unique heating method, induction stoves heat up more quickly and efficiently than gas or electric stoves. Cooking with induction is "up to three times more efficient than gas stoves, and up to 10% more efficient than conventional smooth top electric ranges," according to the Department of Energy.

Not only are induction stovetops faster, but they're safer, too. Aside from fire risks, gas stoves release harmful pollutants like carbon monoxide and methane into the air — even when they're not on. Routine exposure to these pollutants can cause irritation and increase the risk of developing asthma, cancer, and other respiratory issues.
Induction stovetops release no gases, have no open flame, and cool down quickly, making them an easy and affordable way to avoid the dangers of gas stoves. If you're ready to level up to induction cooking, you can get over $800 off with credits and rebates. If you want to cash in on nearly $1,000 in savings, you'll need to do so by the end of this year.
To take your home energy upgrades to the next level — and to take advantage of tens of thousands of dollars in tax incentives before they expire — you can also consider upgrading your HVAC to a cost-saving heat pump or taking your energy bills close to $0 with rooftop solar panels.
Popular HVAC brands like Mitsubishi offer a wide range of heat pump options, including highly cost-effective mini-split systems. And platforms like EnergySage offer free tools to help homeowners find and compare rooftop solar quotes from vetted local installers, with many users saving up to $10,000 on installation thanks to competitive bidding.
