| One of the factors that has us looking at induction again is the precise, repeatable control you get compared to "eyeballing" a gas flame. I twiddle the knobs on a CC rangetop yesterday, and noticed something I had missed previously - there is a ton of "backlash"/free play in the knobs. By that, I mean that you can turn the knobs to-and-fro about 30 degrees without changing the setting of the burner at all. Obviously that makes using the little scales on the knobs as a guide to settings nearly impossible. It also means that making fine adjustments is likely to be fiddly. Questions for those of you who have the CC: - Do you see the same thing? - How much does it bother you? If any BS owners have wandered in here, I'm curious how the BS compares in this respect. |

| It was like that before the Capital tech adjusted the burners but now there is a much more direct relationship between turning the knob and the flame growing or diminishing. |

| I have fantastic control on my BS but after 5 years I just look at the flame and never look at the indicators on the knob anymore. But, suffice it to say, it's a very, very responsive flame. |
