Best Electric Cooktops

No replacement policy – After putting up with this cooktop for nearly 2 years it is no longer working. Electrolux will not replace or refund. Show details

How long should these last - warranty – Bought one of these and it seems right near the 3 year mark perhaps a bit over perhaps a bit under. We aren’t quite sure but the left hand main… Read more

element died. “Sorry sir do you have a receipt”, even the box is stamped with a date (06/2018) but that’s still not good enough. But my main question is after owning other cooktops which have lasted many years, how long should something like this last? In fact the last one after like 10+ years was replaced only because someone cracked the glass. Not happy with the fact something like this fails so early and simply not covered. I note the older model people complaining about the very same issue. Second comment touch controls sometimes annoying; you can lock by accident, you can turn off by accident, etc.

Best grill type plate – Have had at least 5 different grill plates over the years this is one great & so easy to clean after it has been used. It has dual temperature we… Read more

really love using it. It cooks everything beautifully. love the fact it is dish like so fat does spill on the the rest of the cook tops.

Cooks well, dual ring burner cooks fast too – Purchased this is 2017 and have been really happy with this cooktop. Cooks well, the rear rapid burner cooks fast and the touch control is easy to use. The child lock function has been handy as well so no one accidentally turns it on.

Use every day - very happy so far – Solid construction and does what it says it will do. I read reviews and manual before purchasing and so was aware that hotplates can't be used at… Read more

same time as oven and that hotplates only have high temperature. Solution to the latter: find a STURDY open-wire grill stand (with legs) that is slightly higher than the hotplate, place over hotplate and place saucepan on top - this will allow simmering. This mini oven is great value for money (I paid $144) - you can't compare apples with pears!

Rubbish – Induction is excellent but this cooktop is not. The glass top isn't robust enough: ours broke twice, once just from a drinking glass falling on it.… Read more

The “turbo” button is too close to the "off" button, so it's easy to accidentally ramp up the heat and burn food and saucepans. Worst of all, after 7 years the entire thing stopped working and AEG want $1200 for repairs, or $1800 for a replacement cooktop. Buy something else.

Its worst product and worst service – I have bought this product 10 months ago it's not suitable for family it stop within in 30 minutes please dont buy this product .its not easy to use… Read more

and if u are working people who doesn't have much time to cook pls dont buy this beko product .I been using glass cooktop for last 10 years but beko is the worst .we been trying to resolve this but still where I was

Don't Buy Fisher and Parkel Induction Cooktop because it doesn't work and they wont replace it – DO NOT BUY a Fisher and Parkel induction cooktop (CE604DTB1) because it doesn't work and they won't replace it. We even had a rep come to our home,… Read more

see that it didn't work properly(yes one plate boils water) and then he sent us a text message with some techno babble saying that we needed cast iron cookware. We have Swisse-tech pro and Baccarat (both of which worked at our last home and were $100 a pot) We actually paid extra to have an induction cooktop in our new McDonald Jones Home and four months later we have no cooktop in a brand new kitchen. None of our family or friends can believe this!

Waste if money and forget about warranty reassurance – Had problems right from the start. When one hotplate is in use the others that aren't in use beep and flash. After first contact under warranty with… Read more

numerous videos showing what was happening a technician came out as definitely faulty to assume it had the be the motherboard, which he replaced but the issue still there. When I contacted to say it hadn't fixed the issue was told that it was apparently doing what it supposed to be doing and case closed. Now only a few months later its looking to have to replace it as its obviously faulty and problems have worsen to occasionally it shuts its turns it self off...the company doesn't want to acknowledge it. I have never had a stove top that beeps and flashes other hotplates when not in use and randomly shuts it self off..... very frustrating and disappointing customer service. Buyer beware!

I brought this 4 years ago and have recently been looking for prices and reviews on others for by daughter who is buying a new cooktop. So, I thought… Read more

I should write one. Firstly, I agreed with others about the sensitivity if moisture or something is put near the control, it turns off very frustrating. Secondly the large element seems to cook hotter on one half, I can actually have breadcrumbs from crumbed steak burn on half of the pan while the other does not. I paid $1022 and looking around I should have better for this price.

Can't agree so far – On second Hob which has also failed, with incorrect spare parts in between. No replacements units available at last advice and waiting to see in… Read more

Nardi are going to be able to supply replacement unit or parts. Only installed last November and 1st Hob failed in first two weeks! Hoping for better.

Must be used with your fingers crossed – I have had ceramic cooktops previously and been really happy but this cooktop sets its own agenda!!!!. If you do not use the, very questionable,… Read more

fast heat up function it may not heat up for 30 minutes. Temperatures are best selected with fingers crossed as who knows what you will get. There has been some repairs done on this with the lock function being adjusted and screws tightened but I still cannot believe the erratic functioning of this cooktop. Frequently turns itself off after a drop of water or something brushing the function buttons. I have noticed a hot pot lid placed on an off hob will turn the hob on???????. 29/01/2022 full receipts available $799.oo Harvey Norman.

Purchased in October 2025 but not installed until mid December 2025. The first time I used it water burnt onto the glass hotplate - difficult to… Read more

remove, dull marks remain over hotplates.

Weeks later every hotplate the glass is dull in places, dull marks and one hotplate where water over boiled is completely damaged, the manual states to clean spills immediately, so I used a clean damp dish cloth only to have the fibers burn into the hotplate and stick.

I requested a warranty claim from the retailer Harvey Norman at Bundall who I purchased this from, they were not helpful and have been of no assistance and refused me a replacement hot plate or warranty claim. They brushed their hands of my complaint.

Their only response was to advise me to purchase Cerapol product to clean the glass and use the scraper. Cerapol is the recommended product to clean marks along with the razor that came with the hot plate. Nowhere in the manual does it recommend to use Cerapol. This should be clear to customers when purchasing ceramic glass hotplates. Stains did not remove the marks completely after using the Cerapol multiple times.

What I believed to be a very fine scratch or stain on the lower right hand side that I could not remove, over several months - this mark was in fact a hairline crack, that became worse over weeks and became evident the glass had cracked in this corner.

The power button is easily turned off if you happen to touch accidentally, there are tiny imprinted markings to show which nob is which hot plate - almost impossible to read, they don't light up. Several family members and friends have all commented it is terrible to try and see which nob will light up which hotplate. Over time I will get used to remembering which nob turns on which hotplate. A terrible design when all said and done.

Overall the operation of this hot plate is not user friendly, the positive is the turn nobs and not touch - accept for the power button which is operated by touch. I specifically purchased because it had nobs that can be turned and not operated by touch control.

I have had a glass hotplate in the past and never encountered such damage to the glass after the first use - especially when it was just water that boiled over! I have a stunning new kitchen and the hotplate looks like it is a 2nd hand appliance within the first use!

My issue was escalated to Euromaid only due to this website and I did receive responses over several weeks which was appreciated. Certainly better service than Harvey Norman at Bundall provided. I was advised a service call will be made and weeks later received a call from local service center company and appointment was made.

To my relief Euromaid have provided a replacement glass top. I am happy that Euromaid have replaced the damage glass top. I am only several weeks into using the new glass top so it is early days. I am extremely cautious now of ensuring there is not a drop of water anywhere on top while cooking. Very cautious now about using a damp cloth immediately to wipe a spill while the hotplate is still warm due to the fibers sticking and making it a worse situation. I am paranoid using this hotplate as it is so easily marked.

It is difficult to give this hotplate a good rating - I am cautious each time I use it as I do not want burn marks again.

I have been advised that the glass used in this hotplate is the same glass used universally for glass hotplates. That is concerning. Over 15years ago I had a different brand glass hotplate and never had the issues I have had with this one.

Euromaid's service:- I cannot fault their service as they have done the right thing by replacing the damaged glass top, it is for this reason I have given extra stars. Would I buy this kind of hotplate again - no I wouldn't. However, I cannot fault Euromaid's customer service dealing with this issue.

Excellent cooktop – I've had this cooktop for nearly 5 years and it has given me no problems at all, it cooks evenly, quickly and is easy to clean. It just does what… Read more

it's supposed to do with ease. I would highly recommend it. We also have an underbench oven to match. Both are very stylish.

Bad product and customer service – Oven mode selection switch fell apart after 7 months, having trouble getting it repaired through Bellini warranty, first they send the wrong part… Read more

that took three weeks to arrive, now another three weeks wait for another part, it should of been replaced in a week, not stuffed around for what looks like, it’s going to be months. Poor all round.

Horrible user interface, difficult to turn on and set a temp – Worst user interface ever. The fact that a cooktop needs to be talked about from a UI perspective is telling. This this is impossible. Do. Not. Buy. Show details

If you plan to cook. DO NOT BUY THIS STOVE. This is by far the most useless stove I have ever had the misfortune to use. I had to buy a ceramic… Read more

cook top stove as the area the stove was to be installed was too small for an induction. What a mistake. Any cooking in pots or pans takes forever. The ring keeps turning off, the radiant heat is a very small area even on the drawn out circle the inner circle Is only adequate for the smallest pot. The heat ring turns off with any movement including stirring a pot or a pot boiling. It is impossible to clean. The stove is okay but the cook top is just for decoration

Not Happy – I bought one these 13 July 2021 because although a Westinghouse fan, it was also the only one I could find that fitted into the existing benchtop cut… Read more

out. I wasn`t happy about the touch controls versus manual rotary control, but that wasn`t an option. Big mistake by me and Westinghouse. Learning it`s operation happened slowy by mistakes but was eventually mastered. Then the problems began. For no apparent reason it would switch itself off! Then if using multiple zones removing a pot without touching any controls, again it was prone to shutting down. Now we have the latest problem in that when turned on it`s in lock mode. The instructions, when found, are far from clear on how to unlock it. Much button pressing with unmention time lag may eventionly unlock it. Not good in the haste of preparing a meal. Now, after in less of two years the markings over the controls have almost disappeared making it difficult to operate. I would guess that in six months they would have disappeared altogether. What tech smart, but uneducated in the real world, university graduate would be allowed to introduce such rubbish that causes such damage to the former good reputation of the Westinghouse name. Avoid.

Does not cook, takes ages to heat up pans – Purchased as part of a budget appliance package. 'Budget' is the bis term here as all of the appliances were made to be cheap as possible. The… Read more

burners do not work well, I need to have everything on full blast to try and get something out of them. Forget stir frys, it boils the meat instead of cooking. If you want a cooktop to actually cook on try something else and don't get stuck.

Glass top marks and breaks easy – Heats and functions well however we are on to our second replacement glass. First time we bumped the edge and it cracked, this time we just noticed a… Read more

hairline crack which got bigger till it stopped working. Disappointed with glass quality and it marks really easily. Maybe a steel edge protection would help.

Very disappointed with the quality – Purchased this about 2 years ago to replace an older model equivalent Westinghouse cooktop. However, after about a year of use the silver coating on… Read more

the knobs started to flake off exposing the black base plastic. The old knobs did not have this issue with over 10 years of use. I am very disappointed as it seems it flakes off where you touch to turn the knob. How are you suppose to use this cooktop without the knobs deteriorating?

cooktop constantly turns off – Turns off constantly due to its over zealous digital display area ( this is a built in safety feature but way over the top for our liking). If u get… Read more

any water even a drop of water or say gravy, it will turn off which is very annoying. Even if u use a damp sponge to clean up a spillage and wipe across the controls, it will turn off. We are very disappointed with this cook top and we have found that the cooktop doesn’t live up to our expectations as to what it should do. We will seek a refund.
