I have a Monogram induction cooktop, installed in 2012 and it looks like new.  The surface material of ours is "Schott Ceran", I don't think that is anything special at least at that time.  Super easy to clean and maintain.  I am sort of a tidy person and don't drag pans around but I use heavy LeCreuset pans fairly frequently as well as other pans that are induction ready.  Love it, excellent control and even cooking, my favorite of all choices.

That's amazing @persiflage  and your lucky!  Mine was a GE and scratched so easily.  And I'm not a cook.  

However, they are pretty to look at and you have a better made than I did.  Best.

I have never heard of this!  An eye???

I tried googling it all sorts of ways and got no where.

Google is just not my friend!

If you wouldn't mind explaining a bit to me what a 'stand alone induction eye' is? 

I have a stand alone single Induction burner.....but I couldn't find anything about an 'eye'.

@RespectLife , An 'eye' is simply another name for a burner.  That's just what we used to call them where I'm from.  I thought it was a common name for the burners on a stove.

OH!  ha ha....never heard the term!  Thanks for explaining!

I do have a single Induction burner....LOVE it and use it all the time.

I can finally get a nice low simmer that my gas cook top can't provide.

My gas cooktop is more a 'decoration' now!  ha ha

Is it necessary to have a range hood with the stand alone induction burners?

[Zhills]

I don't have one over mine.  Don't have a problem.  It doesn't heat up the kitchen like a stove burner does because only the pot/pan gets hot!  And the contents, of course!

@Imaoldhippie 

I agree with  @Zhills 

I use mine on my island...NO range hood, no issues.

@Zhills @RespectLife ..............Thank you both that solves my problem.

I cook on a glass top stove, electric.

For years I cooked on a gas stove, for fifteen years, while renovating, on  a wood cook top stove.

Never induction.
