I haven’t been on here for a minute.
Wow a lot has happened in the precision cooktop arena.
Breville just released a home version of Control Freak. But I’m not impressed because it’s only slightly cheaper. And you need Chefstep’s annual subscription to unlock the cheaper price…
Earlier this year, a company just came out with a built-in 30" precision cooktop called Impulse Cooktop, which uses battery to increase the max outpower to 10Kwh. So it can boil 1 liter of water in 40s. That’s impressive! I’ve been looking for a 4 burner CF built-in one for years. Now, I can finally consider replacing my existing built-in stove.
Recently, another company came out with a new one called Vision Infinity Cooktop.
Besides the CF like precise temp control, it has a weigh scale, step by step recipes with pre-set temps and timers, built-in vent hood, etc. The coolest thing tho is the camera. It reminds you when to flip the pancake, measure the steak’s thickness, prevents overcooking and boil overs, etc.
I still love my CF but now I don’t think I will get a 2nd unit of CF. Because there are too many options now.
I’m thinking about getting the Vision Infinity Cooktop first. If it’s good, i’ll buy a 2nd unit to replace my old CF.
For the Impulse Cooktop, I have to wait a bit to see how good it is. That’s a bigger investment with all the installation costs.
What do you all think?
