Why Buy?

Simple, tactile ceramic cooking with instant heat control

This 60cm electric cooktop pairs four ceramic zones with physical knob control, so dialling heat up or down is immediate rather than tapped through a touch menu. The largest zone runs at 2.3kW, enough to bring a stockpot to a rolling boil before settling into a steady simmer.

Nine power levels sit between those extremes, which is what actually matters day to day rather than a single peak wattage figure. A residual heat indicator lights up on each zone once it is switched off but still hot, a small but useful cue in a busy kitchen. The flat ceramic surface has no grates, burner caps or seams to lift and scrub, so spills wipe away in one pass rather than working into gaps.

As an electric cooktop rather than induction, it suits kitchens where flat, easy-clean cooking matters more than a full upgrade to induction speed. Knob control means anyone can use it without a learning curve, from a share house to a family kitchen, and the ceramic surface drops into a standard 60cm cutout for a clean, flush finish on the benchtop.

Buy this if…

  • You want a 60cm electric cooktop with physical knob control, not touch buttons
  • You are replacing an older cooktop and want an easy-clean ceramic surface
  • You cook across a range from a fast boil to a low, gentle simmer
  • You want a visual residual heat warning as an extra safety check
  • You prefer straightforward electric cooking over an induction learning curve

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of pots and pans can I use on this ceramic cooktop?

This ceramic cooktop works best with flat-bottomed cookware made from materials like stainless steel, cast iron, or enamel. The smooth surface ensures efficient heat transfer for even cooking across its four zones.

How do I clean this ceramic cooktop?

Cleaning this ceramic cooktop is generally straightforward; simply wipe spills with a damp cloth once the surface has cooled. For tougher stains or burnt-on food, specialised ceramic cooktop cleaners can be used to maintain its pristine finish.

Does this cooktop require special installation?

Yes, like all built-in cooking appliances, this ceramic cooktop requires professional installation by a qualified electrician. This ensures correct electrical connection and compliance with safety standards for your home.

What is the difference between a ceramic and an induction cooktop?

A ceramic cooktop heats food using radiant heat transferred from heating elements beneath a glass surface, whereas an induction cooktop uses electromagnetic fields to directly heat compatible cookware. This ceramic model offers consistent radiant heat and works with most flat-bottomed pots, making it a versatile choice for many kitchens.

What warranty is included with the Westinghouse ceramic cooktop?

The Westinghouse ceramic cooktop comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty. This covers parts and labour for any manufacturing defects, providing peace of mind for your purchase.
