Sadly, renters don't get much input on any of the appliances. While suggesting a different type of electric stove is great for people with that control, most just suffer with the cheapest appliance the landlord could get away with providing.

You can always put a portable induction top on top of your unused electric top.

Heat diffuser too?

A what? Do you mean one of these things? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_diffuser

If so, then I don't think you'd ever need one? None of the use-cases for them seem like they would apply to a good induction stove.

An induction-compatible disc that heats up via induction and transfers that heat by conduction to your non-induction-compatible cookware.

Simple, inexpensive, inefficient, and possibly damaging.

No I meant for an electric stove

But the goal is to make your cooktop _more_ responsive, not _less_ responsive.

And also nearly zero waste heat so your kitchen doesn't get so hot while cooking.
