Cooktops offer stylish functionality in the kitchen.
They can be incorporated into countertops and
islands for that coveted seamless look. To satisfy
demand, cooktop manufacturers are designing
these products in a growing array of colors,
to match or complement the surrounding surface.
Like freestanding ranges, cooktops come in gas
and electric versions.
In the electric variety, ceramic glass cooktops certainly qualify among the most popular styles. They're easy to clean, have excellent heating controls and feature slick aesthetics. With ceramic cooktops, the days of hovering over a stove and scrubbing grime are over. With a swift and regular application of a manufacturer-approved polishing cream you can keep your cooktop's surface looking great and free of blemishes.
The power behind ceramic cooktops sit beneath the cool surface. Radiant conductors project heat upward in balanced waves to cook your foods thoroughly and evenly. Of course, if you require fast and instant heating control, nothing beats gas. While gas cooktops are not as easy to clean, new models come with sealed gas burners that keep cooking spills on the surface for easier cleaning.
Consider This
When searching for a cooktop, an important factor to consider is its warranty. The length and limitations vary from a myriad of manufacturers. While lengthy warranties are certainly attractive, it's important to consider that these types of appliances are designed to last for many years and most factory malfunctions happen shortly after production. This means that, if it works well after the first 6 months, it should work well for the next 6 years, or more.
