Assisted Cooking Modes for Boil, Fry and Grill Help you take on high-heat techniques with confidence. Sensor monitoring automatically sets the ideal heat, alerts you when to add ingredients and maintains constant temperature while food cooks. Requires the use of specialty KitchenAid® pans (sold separately).* *Visit potsandpans.com/kitchenaid to purchase required cookware: 8 Qt Stockpot (#71003), 12" Nonstick Open Frying Pan (#71010) and 10.25" Round Nonstick Grill Pan (#71012). Cookware manufactured under license.

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.

Control Lock Disables cooking mode 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.

Pan Size Detection Recognizes the size and placement of cookware to generate heat directly within the pan. An indicator light and sound will alert you if you turn the cooktop on without a pan on the selected element or if your pan is not compatible with induction cooking.

Power Boost Function Allows you to exceed the maximum heat-level setting for 5 minutes, to help you get to a rapid boil

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.

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.

Touch-Activated Controls For assisted cooking modes, auto presets and numerical power settings are simple to use. The seamless design is also easy to clean.

Large induction stovetop

Induction review 9/7/2026

This is our first induction stovestop after previously cooking with gas. It look some time to get used to how fast it heats up, but we really it. The lock control is great for ensuring that our cats don™€™t accidentally turn it on. We got the 36 in. stovetop so there™€™s plenty of room for cooking with multiple pots and pans. Our complaint is that the buttons don™€™t respond immediately when pressed.

Pleased with purchase!

tex25 9/1/2026

I have always loved using a gas cooktop, but for our new home I selected the 36 inch induction cooktop. I wanted the ease of clean up, no excessive heat when cooking and improved efficiency with electric instead of propane. I LOVE this induction cooktop. It heats up quickly, no excessive heat given off in the kitchen and is extremely consistant. It is the first time ever that low simmer is really a low simmer. I scramble eggs on 4 and they are exactly the same every time. We planned a ahead of time which pans we prefer and found great, afforadable options. There is a bit of a learning curve at first, but well worth it. Ease of clean up alone would cause me to select induction again!

Induction for the win!

linzer 9/1/2026

We love this induction cooktop so much! It has changed the way we cook. I was a chef for many years, and thought I could never give up my gas cooktop. After using induction, I would never go back to a gas burner for several reasons. Most importantly, you can boil a pot of water in 2 minutes, and this cooktop is sooooo easy to clean! You spray and wipe, and it is clean. No burners to remove, just wipe and go. Love it!

Great customer service

Jimmy29 6/14/2026

Love the cooktop, but the 2 left burners didn™€™t work when we moved into our new home. We placed an order for service and it was fixed quickly and painlessly. No issues and works great since the repair.

Induction cooking is the only way to cook

Tuk's kitchen 12/26/2025

I bought my induction cooktop this fall as we remodeled our kitchen. It will literally boil water in 2 minutes. We live everything about this cooktop.

Bonus offer

Dnjs 10/18/2025

I was not informed that kitchenaid pans were required for assist features on cooktop. I also received a link for a bonus offer for 3 pans when I registered my cooktop and signed up for extended warranty. When I called I was told I had to go through Spencer™€™s, where I purchased. They had no information on the offer even though I sent them a copy of the link. I feel it is false advertising. My model qualified and was registered within the dates required

Looks Nice

Ed007 8/10/2025

Overall, we are mildly satisfied with the performance of the cooktop. It heats pots/pans very quickly and is almost as easy to adjust temperature as a gas stove. Our biggest complaint is the middle ™€œelement™€. We thought it would be a large cooking spot because the circle is easily 2x larger than the others. But sadly it is very small. You put a Dutch oven on it to boil water, and you see only a small circle being heated. Had I known that I would have reconsidered the purchase.
