We were interested but in the end didn't go for it. IIRC, it heats up quicker than regular electric, and the cooktop stays cool(-er; it's warmed somewhat by being next to the pan it's heating).
You have to use pans that are made of a ferromagnetic material - you can tell by seeing if a magnet sticks to it. And I've heard folks say it tends to hum or "sing" a bit, but users say that it's not obnoxious, and you get used to it quickly.
