Summit SINC5B36W Induction Cooktop

Yes, induction cooktops only work with magnetic cookware. You can easily test your pots and pans by seeing if a magnet sticks firmly to the bottom; if it does, it will work with this unit.

The white glass surface is durable and designed for modern kitchens, but like any glass cooktop, it requires care. We recommend using a cooktop cleaner specifically formulated for glass surfaces and avoiding abrasive scrubbers to keep it looking pristine.

This is a built-in unit designed to drop into a standard countertop cutout. Because it requires a 230-volt electrical connection, we strongly recommend having a licensed electrician handle the installation to ensure it meets local building codes and safety standards.

Induction is significantly faster than both gas and traditional electric radiant cooktops. Because it uses electromagnetic energy to heat the cookware directly rather than heating the surface first, you will notice much quicker boil times and more responsive temperature adjustments.

No, the five-burner configuration is designed for versatility, allowing you to match different pot sizes to the appropriate heating zone. While specific wattage varies by zone, the cooktop is engineered to handle multiple pots simultaneously without sacrificing performance.
