The induction burner I tested was one of those portable plugin units (and not an extremely high end one). It's nice to have, and I will use it again at some point. With kids, I'm often cooking a good amount of food, using big pans. It seems like larger pans don't tend to do as well with induction burners because the "hot" area is generally a bit smaller than with gas. I DO like the efficiency aspect of induction, and it does heat up VERY fast which is nice.
