Induction - Why is it slow to catch on in the US?

Going from boil to simmer is amazingly fast. Cleanup is a breeze.
As for the need for new cookware, it shouldn’t be a big issue. One probably has enough to start with and really, how many pots does one need?

I’ve had mine for two weeks and I am a total convert. I went from glass top electric to induction and it just continues to amaze me. As for pots, I had a few that I use all the time that are induction capable. I did have to get myself a new 8 qt dutch oven but that’s really it. Even though I had a lot of pots, there really only are a few that I use all the time. Oh, and I had to get a new tea kettle!
