Features
  • Sensor Induction Technology

    Generates heat directly within cookware, reaching high temperatures quickly and cooling down rapidly for precise control that enables a full range of cooking techniques.

  • Auto Presets for Melt, Simmer, Keep Warm and Boil

    Auto Presets for Melt, Simmer, Keep Warm and Boil automatically set the right heat for different techniques and stages of cooking, taking the guesswork out of choosing settings.

  • Assisted Cooking Modes for Boil, Fry and Grill

    Sensor monitoring automatically sets the ideal heat, alerts you when to add ingredients and maintains constant temperature while food cooks. *

  • Power Boost Function

    Power Boost sets the highest heat to help you get to a rapid boil

  • Touch-Activated Controls

    Touch-Activated Controls are simple to use and easy to clean

  • Pan Size Detection

    Pan Size Detection adapts heat to pan size and placement

  • Control Lock

    Control Lock disables cooking for easy cleaning when not in use

  • Frameless Design

    Allows flush installation for a seamless look or standard installation to fit an existing cooktop cutout.

  • Requires Induction-Compatible Cookware

    Such as multi-ply stainless steel, enamelled steel or cast iron. Aluminum and copper cookware will not work unless it has a base made of iron or steel. Look for pans marked "Works with Induction" or test to see if a magnet will stick to the bottom.

  • * For best results, pair with specialty KitchenAid pans (sold separately: 8 Qt Stockpot (Model #71003), 12" Nonstick Open Frying Pan (Model #71010) and 10.25" Round Nonstick Grill Pan (Model #71012). Cookware manufactured under license)

    Works great

    This cooktop is excellent. It boils water extremely quickly and the surface doesn't get dangerously hot like most others. We are really glad we switched to induction - it beats gas and electric hands down.
