I would like to go the induction route but...
Comments (8)We use a cast iron griddle on our Thermador induction cooktop, across two hobs. It's not a "bridge" hob, i.e. there is no heat in the middle, but it is fast enough that once the cast iron heats up over the two separate elements, heat will be conducted across the entire griddle. I would guess that it heats up in about 7-8 minutes, enough time for us to mix up a batch of pancakes. We don't cook a lot on the griddle, only pancakes occasionally. We've done bacon and eggs in a large skillet, 14" across. If you think you'll use a griddle a lot, get a separate electric unit. When we were considering a 36" Bluestar gas cooktop or rangetop, I wanted a grill. But never a griddle. You can always use a griddle pan across two gas burners. If I were going with 48" gas cooktop, I'd still opt for the grill. A griddle is a waste of burner space. The main drawback of a grill is the need for high cfm venting. That wasn't possible in our kitchen, which is why we turned to induction.

Comments (48)Maybe I'm reading the post wrong, but I have a different viewpoint than nymommy's. We use CL to sell items and always get what what we feel is the true value of the item, based on its age and wear. Sure, it may not sell within a week, but over time the right buyer will always show up. I sold my backpack blower last summer and got at least 4 emails from guys telling me they'd offer much less than I was asking and to contact them when it didn't sell. Well, 3 days later I sold it for my asking price and the buyer didn't even make an offer since he knew he was getting a bargain. Whether you're asking $600 or $60 for a piece doesn't matter since the buyer still has to arrange transport. That's just part of CL and if a buyer can't arrange pick up then that leaves them with buying from a store front. It's easy to rent a truck from HD , borrow a truck from a friend, pay someone that hauls and occasionally, the seller will deliver for a fee. So, one can usually figure out a way to get an item to their house. Ok.......I'm off the CL box now. Don't know what got me started!...See Morethe geckoes
