What is an induction cooktop?
Induction cooktops are energy-efficient cooktops that create a magnetic field between the induction element in the cooktop and the pan. This means: only the pan or pot heats up, not the cooking surface. A few of our most beloved top functions come with Induction cooktops, such as our Flex Induction, Flex Zone, Power Move or Power Transfer.
The difference between an induction cooktops and an electric or ceramic cooktop is the heating element that heats up the cooktop instead of the pan or pot.
