Know before you buy
Yes, the cooktop is designed to support wok cooking. The continuous cast iron grates provide a stable base for rounded-bottom pans, and the high-output dual ring burner delivers the intense heat required for effective stir-frying.
The cooktop features a dedicated simmer burner that outputs as low as 750 BTUs. This allows for very gentle, consistent heat that is ideal for melting chocolate or simmering delicate sauces without scorching.
While the cast iron grates are durable, we recommend hand washing them with mild soap and water to preserve their finish. Because they are heavy and porous, dishwasher detergents can eventually cause them to rust or lose their seasoning.
Yes, this gas cooktop requires a 120V electrical connection to power the electronic ignition system. This ensures a reliable and safe startup every time you turn the burner knobs.
This 36-inch unit has an overall depth of 20.5 inches and a height of 3.0 inches. You should consult the official installation manual for the exact cutout dimensions required for your specific countertop material to ensure a seamless, flush fit.
The stainless steel surface is designed for durability and is relatively easy to maintain with a soft cloth and a non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner. Because the grates are continuous, you can easily slide pans across the surface, which helps prevent spills from being trapped in corners.
