A Wide Range of Non-Options (Mar 4 2026)

Attempting to induce. 

Induction cooktop or range.
Knobs.
Downdraft. 

That’s what I want.
I care not what brand.
I care not what expense.
Hit me. 

At the first store, they sent me to two other stores. One of those failed on knobs: touchscreen only. The other has a weird, custom, modular setup that could work. 

I now believe it to be the only cooktop in New York with these traits.
It’s pricey.
So pricey they don’t tell you how much it is.
It turns out I do care what expense. 

Leaving Fischer Paykill, my fifth stop in New York’s Architecture & Design building, one must use a touchscreen to call the elevator. I pressed “lobby” four times before giving up and walking over to the other touchscreen. 

This is why I want knobs.
