Review on 🔥 30 Inch Electric Cooktop - 5 Burner Radiant Stove with Drop-in Smoothtop Ceramic Glass - 240V 7200W - Compatible with All Cookware by Jonathan Collins

houseboats - boats in general - require different settings. Actually like SUVs. However, the peculiarity of this lifestyle is that the kitchen spaces are small and require things to be able to be moved/stored. To get to the point, I've cooked on both radiant and induction cooktops, each with two burners, so I had a full-size range, but they were easier to store away when I needed a countertop for other things. Of the two cooktops, I found radiant cooktops to be a bit more versatile, as induction requires the cookware to have a metal base for the thermal reaction to take place. It's not that induction is bad, but it does require more attention in preparation. Radiant heat cooktops are the best part of electric cooking: no exposed coils, a flat surface that stays that way (I've had a few cooktops with a slightly curved spiral burner), and easy to clean. This finish was fairly easy to install - the electrician was here exactly 30 minutes later as I had already removed my traditional oven/hob and replaced it with a Goodwill kitchen base unit. The back of the cabinet was removed, I already cut the top to fit this unit and did just that and then let the electrician do his part of the job of hooking it up. Now if you're wondering what I would do without an oven that went out the door with a traditional range, I have a full-size, multipurpose microwave oven that also roasts, bakes, and air roasts. I can pop two full-size baking sheets in my microwave, and yes, I can cook on metal while air frying, baking, or deep frying. Back to the radiant heat cooktop - no electrician I wanted to give it a try so grabbed a smaller skillet, a frozen burger and got going! Radiant heat doesn't cook faster or better if you think of it that way, but it works great and my burger was ready in no time. The burner needs time to cool down, but that is more or less natural with most electric heaters. This is probably the biggest advantage of induction cooking over radiant cooking in terms of how it cools down. However, I am more than satisfied that this radiant heat cooktop is truly and completely flat. No knob to twist/twist! Four burners have a touch area on the front to select which one you want to use, plus two for 1200w and two for 1800w so you have more power for frying or the like. One last thing, as I mentioned, I had this hob wired by an electrician because it needed to be plugged into a 220/30 amp switch in the junction box at my house. Since I don't like working with power lines, it's best to pay someone who knows what they're doing, right? So when you're ready to upgrade your kitchen, this radiant heat flat hob is a great addition to your kitchen.
