Before and after refinishing the stainless steel:
I added lava rocks, for that outdoor taste, indoors!
Slightly smaller than the Viking, so I threw in a filler strip.
And we're up and running:
Pancakes, anyone?
Very nice Mark! Congratulations!

I like your dishwasher.
Those are some mighty fluffy looking pancakes! Beautiful cooktop. Congratulations!
Thank you! Having grown up with gas, then induction, I always wanted to try having this type of cooktop. I'm enjoying using it.
Louis, yes they really are! Here is the recipe I followed. I also tried this recipe again but using buttermilk and no vinegar. Both work well.

That’s a very nice looking cooktop! Would love to try out such burners. I bet they respond faster than solid burners.
Love it !! I had the same cooktop in my house in Chicago. but with a Thermador down draft vent. I always thought is was so cool to see it pop up out of the counter. It was a very good cooktop. Sadly, I always thought the griddle didn't work until just before I sold the house I discovered it just wasn't plugged in all the way.
Thanks for the memory and enjoy. (Although the Viking cooktop was very nice too)

WOW - Lots of lights!
Indicator lights for each burner?!?
Now THAT is top-of-the-line for SURE!
The pop-up vent is super cool, too.

Hi Louis. Yes, these coil elements respond fairly quickly. Certainly much faster to cool down compared to smoothtop ceramic and especially compared to solid plate hobs. Was this type of coil element popular in the Netherlands? It was the standard for electric cookers in the UK and the USA for many years but I don't think they've been sold in the UK for about 20 years now -- anyone know?
Thanks, Jim! I had the option of buying the matching Thermador downdraft vent, but decided to stick with my Viking vent. Would have been cool to have had both matching! Bummer you only discovered the loose element at the last minute.
Hi Bill. Yep, I'm a sucker for lots of indicator lights ha ha and all the TOL bells & whistles!
