“Looking at my electrical service panel, it shows a double-pole 30 amp breaker for my cooktop. I see some are saying you need at least a double-pole 50 amp for this induction cooktop to fully work properly. Is this correct?”

Best Buy’s product page lists this model as requiring a 45 amp circuit. I would ask an electrician to tell you what would be involved (rewiring, drywall work, a new breaker or dedicated circuit) if you are interested in such a cooktop. It could get pricey.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have mine on a 30 amp circuit breaker, and it works fine. I've never tried to run all the burners at high at the same time, which might cause the circuit breaker to pop. I had another brand of induction stove for years that also said it needed a 50 amp breaker that I ran on a 30 amp breaker, and I never had any problems with it.
