A cooktop is an important part of a kitchen, so choosing the right one is important. A good cooktop heats evenly has precise controls and works like a pro. But because there are so many options, it may take a lot of time and work to find the right cooktop for your kitchen.
You have to think about things like the brand, the type of fuel, the number of burners, the materials, etc., which makes the choice difficult. We’ve done a lot of research and put together a list of the top 20 cooktops to make it easier for you to choose.
Even though it’s hard to find a solution that works for everyone, we chose the Frigidaire Products Cooktop as the best cooktop because it performs better than the others and fits most kitchens. We did this by testing and comparing cooktops in every category.
The rest of the article has more suggestions for you to choose from. We are sure that you will be able to choose the best cooktop for your kitchen with the help of the buying guide.
If you’ve ever tried to cook at your mother-in-house, the law’s burned the bacon on “her dumb stove,” and longed for your own kitchen, you’ve probably learned that not all cooktops are the same.
Most people like to cook on the same type of stove they learned on, but if you’re a new homeowner, remodeling your kitchen, or just sick of burning your plant-based meat substitutes every time you cook, it might be time to look into a new stove or cooktop.
Gas, radiant electric, and induction are the three main types of cooktops. Each presents its own pros and cons, but all can get the job done well when used properly.
An open flame gas stove may be more precise and useful for a home cook, but a young family may find that an electric stove is safer and easier to clean. Induction cooktops are some of the most expensive, but they are also arguably the safest and most efficient type of stove for the environment and your utility bill.

How To Find the Best Cooktops to Build Your Dream Home
Buying Guide
Cooktops are better than ranges in a few important ways. One obvious benefit is flexibility, which lets you set up your kitchen however you want, especially if it has an island. You can also mix and match cooktops from different brands to make sure that all of your appliances work at their best. Here are some things to think about when deciding which cooktop to buy.
Things to think about before you buy
Fuel Type
When buying cooktops, the fuel type is the most important thing to think about. Liquid propane (LP) or natural gas, or both, are used to start open flames that the pot and food in it can immediately feel. Gas cooktops are best if you care most about how heat works and how fast it works.
Even though gas cooktops tend to heat up faster and keep low heat better, electric cooktops are more appealing to young people because of how simple they look. Electric cooktops are easy to clean, so they will save you time if you hate cleaning.
Induction cooktops use an electromagnetic field to send heat directly into the pot or pan, giving you quick response and control. Since they don’t get too hot to touch when they’re cooking, they are safer and better for families with kids or pets.
Brand
Some people might like some brands better than others. We have put cooktops into groups based on their brands, so you can go and choose the one you like best. Bosch, GE, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, LG, ZLINE, Wolf, Miele, Thermador, Viking, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, Samsung, and many more are well-known cooktop brands.
Price
We looked at cooktops that cost anywhere from $100 to $1000. Depending on how much money you have, you can choose a cooktop from our lists of the best cooktops for under $200, $300, or $500.
Installation
The type of installation you choose should depend on how your kitchen is set up. Drop-in cooktops are the best choice if your counter has a hole. Be sure to measure the hole before making a purchase. If your counter doesn’t have a hole for a cooktop, you should buy a cooktop that you can put right on the counter.
Surface and end
Some cooktops have unique surfaces, like coils, that meet the needs of different people. When it comes to heating things quickly, coil cooktops are better than smooth tops. Coil burners, on the other hand, usually take longer to cool down. Be careful if there are young children or pets in the kitchen because this could cause burns.
Most cooktops have shiny, easy-to-clean surfaces. But there are also cooktops with a matte finish that are stronger and last longer.
Material
Cast iron, stainless steel, glass, and ceramic are all materials that are often used to make cooktops. There are differences in how these four materials look, how hard they are, how easily they scratch, how long they last, and how easy they are to clean. In general, cast iron is more durable than stainless steel, glass, or ceramic, and glass, ceramic, stainless steel, or cast iron is easier to clean.
Color
The majority of cooktops are black or silver. We also have suggestions for you if you want white cooktops to match the way you’ve decorated the rest of your kitchen.
Item Size
Before you choose a cooktop, you should measure the space in your kitchen to make sure it will fit. Every cooktop has measurements for the “cut-out” that show how big the hole is. The length, width, and depth of the cut-out are all just a little bit smaller than the full size of the appliance. Most cooktops are 30 inches or 36 inches wide. But there are also cooktops that are bigger and smaller. Choose the width of your cooktops based on how big your kitchen counter is, and also think about how deep it is.
Control Design
Knob control and touch control are two common ways to control something. Stoves with knobs are more traditional and easy to use. Because touch-control cooktops have a smooth and even surface, they are easier to clean. But if you have kids or pets at home, make sure they don’t accidentally turn on the cooktops.
The number of burners
How many meals can be cooked at the same time is based on how many burners there are. If you want to make several meals at once, like steaming, stewing, and stir-frying, you should have as many burners as possible. Most of the time, people who live alone are better off with a single-burner cooktop. Two-burner cooktops are the most popular ones on the market, and most families choose to buy them. People who like to cook or have a big family should get a cooktop with 3 or more burners.
Other Things
Cooktops can be used in many places, like cafes, kitchens, and even outside. There are usually special cooktops made for these places, and we’ve picked the best ones for you. For example, portable stoves can be used outside because they can be moved around.
Some of the more recent cooktops have extra features. Some are digital and smart, for example. Some have timers built in to help you keep track of how long it takes to cook. With a cooktop that shows how hot it is, you can control the heat more precisely and get better results. Also, some cooktops have ridges where you can grill food at the same time.
Conclusion
It’s hard to tell you which cooktop is best for you because there are so many things you need to think about to meet your specific needs. But if you’re tired of comparing different cooktops and just want one that will work well in any home, you can choose from our list.
All of the cooktops on the list have been compared and chosen based on different factors, so they offer a good mix of cooking performance, style, and dependability.
