first, thanks for comments regarding these induction stoves.... let me explain why I am interested in them - I've tried elec burners outside for shrimp and crab boils and the one I had never did the trick. I also have a smaller kitchen now and the gas stove is usually covered with cutting boards etc - not much room.
If I were boondocking of course I would use the propane....I have been told the induction heats faster etc etc.... but I also know advertisements often exaggerate, so am especially interested in the brand names which are recommended (or not)
We bought the Max Burton 6000 from Amazon when it came with the add on plate to use with cookware that is non magnetic. Everything works as advertised. With proper cookware water boils in less than two minutes. Cooking temps can be regulated from 1 through 10 with the 1 setting being a simmer. The plate for non magnetic cookware reduces the efficiency by about 25% or more. I do not suggest using it. We like ours and use it in both the motor home and the sticks and bricks.
