Just a shame how expensive they are. Copper stoves (the ones that won the contract in the article) start at $5,999. They're a small start-up without economy of scale on their side, but that still just seems wildly overpriced for an induction stove with a lithium battery stuck inside.

To put that price in perspective, an electric convection toaster oven that can handle most oven needs can be had for $150 to $250, and a high quality countertop induction cooktop can be had for $116 (or less used), both of which run on standard 120v outlets.

Standard 240v induction ovens stove start at around $850.
