Do all induction pans work the same?

I'm after some new pans for Xmas. I have a new induction hob and have assorted pans that work on it but feel some work better than others. I have some old Meyer pans that are OK a couple of new ikea frying pans that are also OK. But the one that works the best is a really cheap steamer pan of amazon. Was thinking of perhaps ninja pans but wondered if anyone has any recommendations.

I've had to buy "induction"plans 3 times to find ones that actually work on the hob in my campervan (a bit unusual to have one TBH) - the ones that work best are from ProCook - I actually like their products - not too expensive and decent quality - I've also bought a set of 3 knives which I like.

I bought Stellar saucepans earlier this year and they're great.
The Neverstick frying & saute non-stick pans I've had fro some time work, but are noticeably nowhere near as responsive, to the point that as much as I've loved them, when they need replacing I'll be looking elsewhere.

Oh thanks I'll have a look I've had procook before and was impressed with them.

Yeah that's what happens with some of my older pans.

Interesting. We have an induction hob, and I think it's shit. Maybe we should try new pans even though ours are supposed to be compatible.

I have Le Creuset non-stick and they have been good on the induction hob. I also have a couple of Tefal sauté pans which I like. I bought some lightweigh5 ones from John Lewis brand as supplements but they are very poor ( to be fair they were cheap)
