Correct, I nearly always use a steel wok on our induction hob and not only does it cook quickly but it's a dream to keep clean. The hob surface never gets more than warm so spills don't get burnt on and unlike a ceramic hob, the entire surface can be wiped clean immediately after cooking has finished with nothing more than a paper towel. Excellent devices - highly recommmended
