It's weird that noone here mentions there are electric stoves between gas and induction.
This is also why the US doesn't have proper electric kettles (a US electric kettle is sometimes as little as 1kW and certainly no more than 1.5kW; a European one is typically 3kW) and why US dishwashers and washing machines usually have a hot water inlet. Generally, nearly anything weird/suboptimal about US home appliances to European eyes is down to this issue.
