Electric cooktop vs induction for class B rental
Interested in hearing you guys opinions on induction cooktops. From what I read they are much safer than electric and gas while being more effective (I have never used one). Another plus is that liquids will not burn and scorch to the cooktop since it is not hot. I'm wondering why they have not caught on with homeowners.
Electric or induction (assuming both are similar mid-tier costs)?

@Blaine Gerick, as Brad mentioned, unless you are also providing the cookware, induction requires special pots and pans, so for that reason alone, electric is the way to go.
