Recent introduction of new Thermadore full surface induction
Comments (2)Swweeeeet. I was told the Gaggenau version probably wasn't going to make it to the states. This is pretty awesome news! Here is a link that might be useful: Thermador Induction Article From Engadget...See Morecookware for thermador induction freedom? help
Comments (4)I think if you want true nonstick that's not Teflon, you're pretty much limited to ceramic finishes, like Thermolon. Scanpan, Swiss Diamond and some others claim to be not Teflon, but that's not really true. Teflon is PTFE, so any pan with a PTFE coating is essentially Teflon, no matter what marketing spin is used. There are some pans that are almost nonstick, like cast iron and carbon steel, but they're not at all dishwasher friendly. They don't require much in the way of care, so that's certainly something you might want to consider. Consider DeBuyer or Paderno carbon steel. http://www.amazon.com/DeBuyer-Mineral-Element-Frypan-Round/dp/B00462QP0W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382487672&sr=8-1&keywords=mineralb#customerImages http://www.amazon.com/Paderno-Heavy-Carbon-Steel-Frying/dp/B000RWGC12/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1382487883&sr=1-1&keywords=paderno+carbon+steel+pan or Lodge cast iron. http://www.amazon.com/Lodge-LCS3-Chefs-Skillet-10-inch/dp/B00008GKDJ/ref=sr_1_2?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1382487929&sr=1-2&keywords=lodge+cast+iron+skillet Both carbon steel and bare cast iron do require seasoning, but once seasoned they're pretty low maintenance. They're also almost impossible to ruin. My best advice is to read the many threads both here and at Chow for tips on living with them. Chow is especially helpful for carbon steel....See MoreThermador freedom induction nightmare!
Comments (4)We did see a relatively high rate of failure with the first freedom units. I can tell you that the service rate has dropped dramatically on those units in the last 12-18 months. That being said, the normal induction models from thermador/bosch are VERY reliable. They have been around for years and are solid units....See MoreThermador 36" Masterpiece Freedom Induction Cooktop - reviews?
Comments (14)We just installed our Freedom last week. We love it. It holds consistent temps and it’s really nice not to have to worry about where the cookware is in the cooktop. I really like the myZone feature. It allows you to move the pot in the stove to change the heat. So closer to the front edge gives you 9 further back is 7 all the way to the back edge at 1. This is handy when I have more than one thing going for dinner at once, or something that may boil over. I can quickly change the heat without fussing with the touch screen....See MoreEatToLive
