I mentioned this thread to my son. His wife's parents bought two of the $300 Nuwave countertop induction units as trial/temporary units when their regular range gave up the ghost some time ago, and they were undecided about what they wanted for a replacement.
They liked induction, bought an induction range, and dropped the Nuwaves off at the kid's place. Kids had never used them.
When I talked about getting one, Son offered to try one out at breakfast and give me his opinion. He used a carbon steel 10" frypan and was very impressed. Quick heat, even temp., but was not thrilled with the fact it would turn itself off if he picked up the pan to toss the taters or flip eggs. Had to reset to start heat again.
Is that a normal feature across manufacturers platforms? Anybody have that experience?
