Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Love it, 1 large burner should be in front

Savi 1/26/2019

I love my new cooktop. Even though my old cooktop was 2 induction burners, I do enjoy using the new one with 4 induction burners. My big criticism though is at least 1 of the large burners should be in the front. I am only 5 1" and it is hard to see into the pot at the back - which is usually a large pot.

DO NOT BUY

Lina N 1/3/2019

My husband bought this cooktop about two months ago, and at first we were really happy with it and loved it, until it broke on us not even a week of using it. Kitchen aid sent a tech over to fix the issue, and we made the changes necessary that the tech told us to do in order for the cooktop to work properly. About a week later the cooktop breaks again and the same tech is supposed to come over to fix the issue but instead calls us and tells us that he thinks he knows what the issue is and that we need to have a separate power line for the cook top and oven and that he will not be coming over until its done, so we hired an electrician to come and set up new wires/ power source just for the cooktop (we paid over $1000 to hire the electrician to make these changes). Fast forward two months later, we are stuck with an unreliable cooktop that breaks down every other week, kitchen aid will not give us a refund even though we have warranty and are very unhappy with the product- I am currently 36 weeks pregnant and have a toddler and teenager at home with no stove to cook with. The last tech that came over to fix the issue has ordered a replacement piece that he says "should fix the problem" but that does not sound too promising. This cooktop has been nothing but a headache ever since we got it. It should not be this complicated and this expensive to get a cooktop to work properly. I don't think I will ever buy any Kitchen Aid product again due to the way they have handled our situation.

No complaints about cooking on the cooktop

Valerie66 2/9/2018

I have gone through 2 of these cooktops within a 5 year span. Will not buy another as they are not reliable. Both times the motherboard and control panel have blow. The cause was not due to faulty electrical system as we have new home with a surge protecter installed on our electric panel.

Simply Amazing

Michael Mac 11/6/2017

I wasn't sure I was going to like induction cooking ( I gave an expensive set of cookware away when I got this cooktop) but I can tell you it's BETTER than cooking on any other cooktop INCLUDING GAS. Induction cooking heats ONLY the cookware so things heat instantly and evenly and when you shut it off, it's OFF with no remaining radiant heat like all other stoves. And since the surface doesn't get hot, spilled foods simply wipe off. This is the only way to cook...

Great cooktop

This is our first experience with induction cooking. It has been a very easy transition. It is easy to use and very easy to clean up. I had heard that there could be humming noises with induction cooking. We have experienced very little of that

Induction cooking is the way to go

8/17/2017

I am very pleased with the rapid heating of a burner when I use the cook top. Food reaches the cooking temperature and cools down rapidly when I change the control. It is so easy to clean in the event of a spill.. I am very pleased and so glad I selected this appliance.

Nice cooktop

7/22/2017

A little noisy. Cooks similar to gas. Poor installation instructions regarding the brackets. Make you purchase glue that is over $100 for the tube if your cooktop is going into a granite or quartz top....that's silly!

Overall great

12/18/2016

I'm enjoying the induction cooking so far. It looks great in my kitchen. My only issue is with cleaning it. Ceramabrite was recommended to clean it, and I find it takes a while to buff it so it's not streaked. That might just be me figuring out the amount of cleaner necessary.

Sleek and fast.

12/2/2016

First induction cooktop for me. I enjoy the way it cooks and its convenience I'm still getting use to the induction method, but already like it better than the electric cooktop it replaced. Easier to control the heat level, less burning. Sleek surface with no knobs.

Cooks like gas; when it's on it heats extremely quickly actually faster than gas and when you turn it off the heat is immediately off. Easy to clean up; great product.

Horrible Dimension guide

9/27/2016

Downloaded the dimension guide for the countertop to be cut out. You need to be a expert plan reader to be able to clearly see what the cut out dimensions are. Cant you just easily say "Countertop cut out dimensions are ......." . There is so many lines, arrowss, dotted, solid, and letters you cant be 100% sure you are looking at the rigth one.

Disappointed

7/29/2016

As much as I loved my induction cooktop when I purchased it, here we are 3 years later and it does not function properly and will cost me $650 to fix. I expected more from kitchen aid!

Sleek

I love the smooth design. No knobs to have to clean under! I like the induction cooking and the design is so sleek.

A great product!

I bought this cooktop one month ago. This is my first induction cooktop. What a great product, with the special touch of KitchenAid. I really appreciated my choice.

Love it! Buying a second one.

4/13/2016

We bought this cooktop 2 years ago. We never used induction before, but liked the idea of faster heating and great cleanup. We absolutely love it! Yes, it took a little learning to use. For example, don't turn your back on it cuz it cooks fast, especially in the high settings. It cleans wonderfully. Still looks like new. And, yes, you need to have the right kind of pans. We got a great set for under $200, so no problem. We own 5 Kitchenaid appliances and this cooktop is the very best. We're now moving and we need to replace the appliances at our next home. We KNOW that the induction cooktop will be the first kitchen appliance that we buy. (PS, I'm an actual, non-paid reviewer. I don't work for Kitchenaid. This truly is my personal experience.)

Works great!

2/4/2016

Love it! Was a bit apprehensive going to induction from lots of years cooking with either gas or electric. Glad I made the switch. Precise temperature control, can keep things at a steady slow boil, simmer etc. without constant vigilance for boil overs. Also, no scalding hot burners to to inadvertently touch.

nice stovetop

9/21/2015

We had this about a month now. It works good but I think raising or lowering the temp is awkward. You don't know what you are doing until the temp shows up and if you want to move only one notch, it is a hit and miss action. Also at times we will get a buzzing noise, not sure what that is. Otherwise it is nice and we are happy with it.

This is a great cooktop with the induction heating. I had a smooth top previously, but this is much better. Faster at heating, ease of use and cleaning. The edges sealed in chrome helps to eliminate crumbs from getting stuck.

Great features; easy to keep clean

W in Munster 2/21/2015

We've had ceramic cooktops in the past and found them to be difficult to keep clean. An induction cooktop does not burn food on the cooktop like a regular ceramic cooktop does; it cleans with just a wipe. Appropriate cookware is needed for induction cooking, but we're very happy we made the switch to induction.

VZLo 1/22/2015

I had always wanted a gas stove until I researched induction cooktops. This one meets and exceeds my expectations. Amazing to have instant heat under a cooking pot. I was pleasantly surprised at how much of my cookware worked with the induction elements. Highly recommend.

Favorite appliance!

merry74 10/26/2014

I picked out all new appliances when I had my kitchen remodeled 5 months ago and my induction cooktop is my favorite of the bunch. I can make a pan of pasta faster than I could boil water on my old ceramic stove. And the temperature control is amazing. It's so responsive I no longer burn things. Only the surface area beneath the pan is hot, so nothing spilled sticks to any of the surface. My stove is as clean and shiny as the day it was installed 5 months ago.

100 % satisfied

Lievreast 9/19/2014

We have had the 30 inch Induction cooktop for three months and are 100% satisfied. We are pleased with the mix and layout of small and large cooking elements. We have never once been unable to use one of the elements due to size constraints: the larger elements are big enough and we have no trouble using our smaller pots and pans on the larger elements. The cooktop is easy to keep clean as overflows do not heat, then stick. Controls are well laid out and are simple to understand and use. The elements are powerful and heat up quickly.
