Yeah it does look interesting. I guess you'd need some demarcations on the countertop to know where to place your pans. There doesn't seem to be much online about them either.. WHen I looked at the Where to Buy, the closest here was in London Ont, about 60 mi.. a granite countertop company, but checking their website they make no mention of these. It's basically a counter top unit minus the glass cooktop attached underneath your granite or quartz countertop.

To each his own I guess. I'm not sure I'd want to hide my cooktop or range. I guess my kitchen looks like it is used and nothing is hidden. The things I use most often are out for ease of use and quite frankly I like looking at some of them. I'm not one of those who wants the counters to be completely empty when they are not being used. |

Some modern induction cooktops just have one big zone that you can use for several pots and pans. The cooktop will recocnize what you put on it and will activate one of the dials. Those don't need demarcations. I would prefer to see the cooktop, but it's not necessary. I guess you can use every material you want as long as it's not magnetic and heat resistant. Up to a certain degree ofcourse, induction cooktops don't get near as hot as those with electric elements.

Yes, I recall seeing a picture of a prototype of the fold down induction units about a year ago, that I might be interested in. The were not so much fold down but hung on the wall when not in use. |
