Re: How many of you are cooking with the NuWave
We cook with the nuwave pro and just bought more pans for our home. We have a set of stainless steel I bought at Walmart for under $50.for the RV.. They nest great and store in a drawer no need to to take care like with the no-stick type. Jus make sure a magnet will stick to the bottom of the pan and you should be able to use with induction cooktops. Whether portable or built in.502Views0likes0CommentsRe: stove top cooking

Note I'm NOT referring to a standard RV cooktop propane burner ... but the high output one that is included in some RV cooktops (like ours, for instance). BTW, the new propane cooktop being installed in our stick house has one of it's five burners rated at a BTU level that's through the roof - the grill covering it is even extra large for holding crab pots, etc., right in the kitchen if we want so we don't have be outside for large boilings. We could kindof do that in the RV if we wanted to. I will concede that propane cooking can heat up an RV more than induction cooking. However, that is often a desirable thing in an RV. Our RV's cooktop overhead fan does vent a lot of residual heat to the outside if the weather is warm and our roof vent fan can also aid the cooktop fan in getting rid of interior cooktop heat as it occurs I thought the claims-to-fame for induction cooking, if you have the electricity for it, were safety from hot burners and ease of cleanup on a smooth surface. BTW and speaking of the ease of cleanup of a smooth surface cooktop - don't the marine diesel cooktops have a smooth surface where the cookware sits? We have two induction nuwave pro portable cooktops. 1 for home and 1 for RV. At home we have a full size gas stove. So to answer your questions. The nuwave does work as fast as the gas. And never heats up the house like the gas does.. And think of when you are on campground power and it is free. Saves $ also. I see that some of the newer RV have the option of all electric now. They are installing induction built in cooktops on these units. And furthermore a hot plate is not induction. It will heat up your home. It can't be used like a slow cooker. Please note: You will need to have induction cookware. I have a small set for RV. Bought at Walmart for under $50. Stainless steel. Stainless steel is Great cause you can just throw them in a draw and don't need to worry about scratching off the coating. Induction cookware will work on all types of cooking units. Induction, electric, gas. So you don't have to carry more pans than you need. Just carry the induction.513Views0likes0Comments
