August 6, 2024 - I had never heard of Converter discs until I read this article. I'm surprised they never came up as part of an online search I've done for induction appliances. I've had an induction "portable" two burner appliance for over a year now, and I really like it. Before I got a number of induction compatible utensils. I did experiment using an old induction compatible frying pan and heated an aluminum pot on it. I didn't do it often and I pretty quickly got a few stainless steel pots and pans. Personally, I think convertor disks could be helpful to people that have a large number of expensive non-stainless steel utensils. However, I would follow the advice of the reporter that wrote the article, and not risk damaging an expensive induction range top stove. While my induction appliance wasn't terribly expensive. I wouldn't want to risk damaging that either.
