Question on Equipment for Frequent Moves

The writer is considering purchasing a portable cooktop, either induction or electric, due to frequent moves and lack of kitchen access. Induction cooktops seem safe with minimal heat generated, but there are concerns about pot warping over time. The writer is aware of the material compatibility issue with induction cooktops and has a stainless steel pot set that should be compatible. There are also concerns about 1800W induction devices shorting out other appliances, but the writer is unclear about the details. Electric cooktops seem reliable and more affordable, but they can get hot and may not be ideal for on-the-go use. They also tend to be larger, making transportation more difficult. The writer is looking for insight into potential issues they may not be considering and would like to hear about others' experiences. The dishes they plan to make with the cooktop include chicken soup, couscous, potatoes, steamed vegetables, salmon, chicken franks, and pasta. The writer has linked their pot set, which is a Cooks Standard 7-piece stainless steel set. Overall, the writer is weighing the pros and cons of induction and electric cooktops to make an informed decision.
