An electric cooktop typically consists of two to five burners that are powered by electricity (as opposed to gas). Unlike a cooktop on a range or stove, an isolated electric range can be installed right into your counter. That way, you can keep your cooktop separate from your oven(s) for ease of access.
You can choose a traditionally styled coil electric stovetop or a smoothtop electric cooktop, which is easier to clean. The greenest choice is an electric induction stovetop, which offers a highly efficient form of cooking. It heats your pans directly rather than heating the burners beneath them.
Whether you are converting to an electric cooktop or installing a replacement for your old electric cooktop, the layouts and designs give you a variety of sizes and styles to choose from, so you can find one that fits your kitchen perfectly.
