QuestionWhat is the difference between the electric induction cooktop and the regular electric cooktop?
Asked 3 years ago by Becky.
- Answer Hello Becky, While electric and induction cooktops may look the same, they transfer heat differently. Electric cooktops radiate heat from coils beneath the cooking surface through to the bottom of the cookware sitting on top. Induction cooktops transfer energy to create heat directly within a pot or pan.

Asked 4 years ago by Linnie.

QuestionWhere are the induction stove tops made?
Asked 4 years ago by Ula.
- Answer Whirlpool is Made in the USA. All our other appliances are Kitchen Aide which is owned by Whirlpool and also made in the USA. Highly recommend! Just an FYI, make sure you get good induction pots as the lower end ones don’t tend to boil water in the bigger pots as well as ones that are cast-iron, stainless steel or any other GOOD induction pot, has to be a magnetic to work with these induction cooktops!
