LG Studio Gas Cooktop

While the high-output brass burner is designed for rapid heating and searing, it works well with standard heavy-duty cookware like cast iron or stainless steel. Just ensure your pots and pans are rated for high-heat gas cooking to avoid warping.

No, the griddle is removable. It is designed to sit on top of the burner grates, allowing you to easily swap it out when you need to use all five burners for traditional pots and pans.

The cooktop features a specially coated surface designed to resist staining and make cleanup easier. While stainless steel still requires care to avoid scratching, spills generally wipe away much more easily than on standard uncoated surfaces.

This unit is designed for a standard 30-inch built-in installation. However, you should always verify your specific countertop cutout dimensions against the manufacturer's installation guide before purchasing to ensure a perfect fit.

While the cooktop has five burners, the physical space on a 30-inch unit can get crowded. You can certainly use all five at once, but you may need to stagger your cookware sizes to ensure everything fits comfortably without overcrowding the grates.
