We have the Grohe Red. The water temperature is specified as 100°C "depending on ambient pressure." When the "boiling water" comes into the usually still cool pot, it loses temperature and takes a short time to boil again; I cannot confirm "immediately."

I want buttons. Eventually, I'll annoy the local electrician to install one for me. Fixed fields are enough for buttons.

The Q.ooker always keeps the water at 100 degrees. How efficient it is strongly depends on the usage. My husband and I are caffeine-dependent and mostly need water for cooking, and induction is more than fast enough for that.

Is that the magnetic part that can be removed? We deliberately avoided this shape because you never know if it might disappear someday ;)

Yes, that's the thing I mean. TwistPad is the official name, as I just saw.

I wouldn't know how you could lose it, but it's actually not impossible since it's not permanently connected to the cooktop. However, the magnet is strong enough to keep the TwistPad in place; it doesn't happily slide over the glass (and beyond).
But is that really that relevant in the decision-making?
In my opinion, it's like the question about noises with induction. Yes, they exist, but so what? The advantages far outweigh it, making this side effect irrelevant. Do you want to cook faster and more energy-efficiently or completely silently?

By the way, spare parts cost 50€, just in case.

That can also be wonderfully stuck somewhere. For example, on the extractor hood. The main thing is that it’s magnetic. It has the huge advantage that the field then no longer activates, which is perfect child protection. P.S. The new twist pads only look and feel cheap now, as only simple plastic is used. But as a gimmick, they are illuminated. The responsiveness is also not as good anymore. The older twist pads were much more valuable.

not lose it as such, but misplace it ;) My girlfriend’s boys regularly enjoy taking it along to play with it in the kids’ room.. The first time it went missing, they searched for it for half a day because she never thought the kids might have taken it. Later she always put it away herself after cooking, where the kids couldn’t reach it, but still misplaced it from time to time. By now she has a fixed place for it, just like you said, on the range hood :) For me, that wouldn’t be a reason to decide against it. Honestly, I didn’t look at Neff appliances because we had already chosen all devices from the Siemens Studioline series and I personally prefer when all visible appliances are from the same brand/series.
