When an induction-compatible pot is placed on the top of the cooker, the coils are able to detect the magnetic base and release heat directly into the pot or pan itself. This is faster than gas stoves that are traditional and more efficient in energy usage. The glass-ceramic surfaces remain cool to the touch and is easy to wipe down.
