Does your INDUCTION COOKTOP make a buzzing noise?

6 years ago

If so, is it annoying? Loud? or fine? Would you have to talk louder or turn the TV up or not noticeable at all? Thanks again guys!

Sometimes but it is not annoying or loud, it is fine! Definitely don’t need to talk louder or turn volume up. When I hear it, others in the general area don’t. It’s a humming noise I would compare to a teapot getting ready to whistle but not that loud. I don’t hear the noise often & so when I do it’s a surprise. Seems to depend on which pan & how high the heat but haven’t heard it often enough to nail down which pan or heat level. When the noise occurs, it goes away quickly. I’ve had my induction GE profile range two years & love it. I had a gas range prior to this & I think heat control is better with induction.

Mine does not, neither does my parents’. I’ve had Siemens, whirlpool and Bosch.

I have a Frigidaire, and it only buzzes once in a great while. It's not loud.

Same with our Thermador.

Occasionally, if I do not line up the pan well. It is very quiet when it does happen.

Thank you all! May I ask, has anyone had theirs for 10 years or so? Do they not last as long as say a high end gas range? The range in this house lasted 25 years!

My first induction range died after 3 years. I am on my second induction range, but it has only been alive for 4 years.
