2006 Kitchen & Bath Show Introductions
White Ceran Induction
Diva launched the first white ceran induction top available anywhere.  White ceran is a product designed to appeal to those who obsessively scrub their hands, and live in fear of microbes, and germs, and lint.  White Ceran, the cooking surface most impossible to clean, targeted at those most likely to commit suicide (pills of course) after the first pot mark.

2003 Kitchen & Bath Show Introductions
New Induction Cooktop.  Maybe This is the Year for Induction
Diva launched a 36" (5) station induction cooktop with (2) 2.0kW stations and (3) 2.9 kW stations. Diva claims that induction is more powerful than any other heating system on the market as it is 90% efficient vs 50% for gas, and 60% for traditional electric. Diva throws in a 9 piece All-Clad cookware set as both a perk and a necessity of induction cooking.  The pots are the active ingredient in induction cooking.  Induction heats the pots directly without heating the cooktop top.  The wrong pots = a bad cooking experience.  MSRP $5000.   We guess that these units are being supplied by De Dietrich, a European manufacturer.
