Hey! I wasn't too sure if this question belongs here or over in Technology but here we go.

My roommate and I want to stop cooking with the gas burners at our place for various reasons and so we were considering getting one of those portable induction stoves and using that to cook instead. We're renting the place so we don't have the option of completely replacing the stove.

I was wondering if someone has some experience with this and maybe a stove model to recommend, or is it a terrible idea and would not work for X reason? Thanks in advance!

I don't know about the quality or how good they are, but IKEA has some portable induction stoves which seem like really good value.

I have a non-portable ikea stove which was very cheap and works just as expected.

I recently used an IKEA portable induction stove in an Airbnb, and did not like it at all. It was very powerful, but basically had only two settings: super high or off. You could adjust it, but that would just mean it cycled more often between super high and off
