Siemens touchSlider Induction Cooktop

2008-1-22siemens_touchslider.jpgWe all love touchscreens, but what about a touch stove? Siemens introduces to European customers their induction cooktop, touchSlider with touch controls. Instead of knobs, each burner has a touch-enabled slider to control the temperature. Without knobs or burners, this cooktop's minimal facade could literally disappear into your kitchen.

Siemens has taken the guesswork out of the cooking experience with their automated features, including a boil-start function that does what one would typically do to get a pot boiling. The heat is cranked to high, and then set at a reasonable temperature once boiling begins, all without having to lift a finger. And no worries about accidentally turning it on with a brush of your hand, there are childproof, cleaning, and cooking "freeze" settings that keep you from burning yourself.
