Induction slide in range suggestions?

6 years ago

We signed contract for kitchen remodel and now I need to pick material for countertops (some type of light colored quartzit) and need suggestions for an induction slide in range. I want a totally smooth surface so prefer no knobs and want to make sure is completely flush with countertops as secure/tight fit as possible. Any suggestions for a induction slide in range??

    GE Profile PHS930SLSS 30 Inch Smart Slide-In Induction Range

    There are filler strips if you want to cover any gap between the range and the countertop.

    If you consider one of those Bosch ranges, read the user guide first to decide whether you want a range that does not have a control for each burner.

    I like the Electrolux, whichever you select please carefully read the install instructions re the side overlap-the glass or metal trim if so equipped must not rest directly on the countertop nor bear any weight of the cooktop- so you will have a minimal gap that is backed up with an integral foam sealing strip. You will have contact munufacturer to see if a thin bead of clear silicone is allowed to seal that minimal gap. This would be the same situation for most drop in surface mount induction cook tops as well.

    I gave up on the no knobs (we decided they looked odd) am down to deciding between the cafe induction double oven and the Samsung induction. My husband doesn't like the double oven and likes the look of the Samsung, I also like the look of the Samsung, but i am kind of thinking the double oven looks nice. Does anyone have any experience with either? Honestly we don't cook much and are more interested in the aesthetics. We were able to see a few in person and absolutely did not like the kitchen aid or the lg looks. I believe the Electrolux is the same as kitchenaid?

    Electrolux makes the Electrolux wavetouch slide in range as well as the Frgidaire slide in induction ranges, no affiliation to Kitchenaid which is made by parent company Whirlpool. Since you mentioned you are concerned about looks I advise to look at Electrolux, it is very sleek, the Wavetouch full width control panel fades away to blank when not in use and wakes up with just a light touch and swipe, makes me feel i am piloting the Millennium Falcon or Starship Enterprise or at least cooking dinner with a bit of fun and colour! The Perfect Turkey button really does give you crispy, juicy turkey faster than a regular oven. Worth taking a look for sure. We have had our Electrolux for about six years, still very happy with it.
