Anyone have experience with induction range cooking?

Getting an induction range put into the new house and looking for any pointers with cooking and/or selecting cookware
I know some cookware won't work at all but for the ones that do work, which ones are the best to get?
Are there any sets made specifically for induction use?

Cant cook with glass or ceramic.

I had a Thermador induction cooktop in my last house. The lack of gas in the kitchen island and inability to easily get it there was almost a sticking point. Only downside was that I had a good bit of aluminum cookware that did me no good. Once I cooked on it about say one time, I thought it was absolutely great, so great in fact that I was a little worried over the DCS professional range that was in the kitchen of the house I just moved in to. Incredibly easy to clean and the fact that the burners don't get super hot - only from transfer of heat from the vessel you are cooking with is a big plus.
Get yourself some DeBuyer Mineral B fry pans and some enameled cast iron (Le Creuset is my favorite) and get after it. Of course anything magnetic (ferrous) will work and I had some All-Clad stainless pieces that worked well. I have a feeling you will be quite happy with it. Control is literally instantaneous and the one I had operated over a very wide temperature range. Nothing can bring water to a boil quicker than induction, FWIW.

Great to hear since I am putting in a Thermador induction cooktop in my new house. Your comments are exactly what I am hearing. I know that my pots will work on this stove but what about a wok, have you any experience with a wok on induction?

Go to Ducotes. They have them and they are cheap. It has a bit of a flat bottom because you can't cook on a wok ring. They have a good selection and can order other pieces for you. Talk to Lori, the girl that used to run Scardinas, she knows her shite.
I have one similar to this that I bring all over the place.

Just like the poster above this one says - needs to have a flat bottom. Williams-Sonoma sells a hand-hammered chinese carbon steel wok that I know works well. I love carbon steel by the way - quality carbon steel pieces are hard to beat.
