hi guys. I need some kind of induction cooker.

but I don't know how to choose.

I mostly will just stir fry, or make soup.

example is an Electrolux RM180. 180minute timer and up to 2000watt. philips also have one at RM170. up to 2000watt, and 12 minutes timer.

are those sufficient for most types of cooking?

any help is greatly appreciated

Good for soup...not so good for stir fry...

I changed back from built-in Electrolux to gas...

thanks. that makes sense. seems like it heats up water easily. but stir fry also requires the wok/pan to "contain" heat, rather than just making the food hot. hope I make sense  :confused:

Erm...its like this...

Induction/pots...only the pot bottom heat up & heat the liquids...surrounding is cool which is Ok...the wall of the pot is not heated, does not "burn" the inside hence food doesn't stick to the wall easy to clean

Gas/wok...other than the flame, the heated air flow up the side of the wok...your whole wok is hot... if use induction only the bottom hot...

If you have Gas somewhere, then these small units are ok...good for tabletop steamboat, etc...

If you want 100% induction... need to change style of cooking... lol...
