What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the cooktop for rapid heating, energy efficiency, and sleek design. Most highlight exceptional speed in bringing water to boil within minutes, immediate temperature response, and effortless cleaning compared to traditional models. The touch controls and automatic shut-off feature receive strong appreciation. However, some report requiring induction-compatible cookware and experiencing uneven heating, with outer pan edges remaining lukewarm despite center heating effectively. A few mention reliability concerns and fan noise. Overall, most customers find the performance and modern aesthetics worthwhile despite cookware compatibility considerations.

Excellent Induction cook top

Would Recommend

When we bought this, we were unsure of the brand Empava since we hadn't heard of it before, but we are very happy with the quality of the cook top! The speed of boil time is so fast, and reacts quickly to temperature changes you set. Nice design, easy install and easy to clean and use.

Empava Cooktop Review

This induction cooktop is remarkable for the price. It has worked flawlessly since it was installed this past March.

I have cooked with electric and was unhappy. Switched to gas and fell in love. Gas was not available at our new home so I thought about induction cooking. WOW! Never go back to gas. Empava was the best priced, made in America and absolutely the best cooktop I have ever used. Being 70 I have used every possible cooking fuel. This system is hands down the best

Very disappointed.

Would Not Recommend

I purchased this surface unit from Lowes Hardware and after installation, I attempted something simple. I was frying bacon on level 5 and after approx. 8 minutes, the unit shut down due to high temp. sensor. I then started another burner and it lasted 5 minutes before it shut down also. I contacted Empava support and the best support they could give was perhaps there was not enough ventilation. The stovetop is installed where 2 others have been over the last 35 years with no problems. It was in ...

The good and the bad

Would Recommend

So good news is Empava customer service is amazing. The product is also well designed and functions well. The bad is that I first bought the cooktop and it was great for a week but then it stopped working. I contacted Empava and they are very responsive and immediately sent a replacement at no cost. They also followed up to make sure it was received and working. So far six months later it’s worked great.

Excellent cooktop

Would Recommend

Looks great, easy to install. I love the flexibility with the size of pans I can use due to the flex zones. The power boost works very well - very quickly boils water in less than 2 minutes. Compared to my previous induction cooktop by a different brand, it might be slightly louder - maybe? - it cools down a bit longer - a fan runs a while after you turn it off. But when the cabinet doors below the cooktop are closed (& usually they are) it’s not loud. Very comparable to the KA I had. The price ...

Love these cooktops!

Would Recommend

Purchased these because we have very shallow countertops so we have two side by side and we'r very happy with them! Ordering another to use as a hot plate for parties because they have optional rubber feet and a standard three prong plug! Highly recommend!

Works well

Would Recommend

I purchased this for my basement kitchenette build. I wanted something simple like what you would find at a hotel. This product fulfills my needs in that regard, it is 120V, I have it on a dedicated 20 Amp circuit. It looks good and you can use it to cook, it also cools down fast and has a lockout feature. If you need a small cooktop that is 120V, this is fits the bill.

Awesome cooktop

Would Recommend

This is my 1st induction cooktop. Replaced old Jenn air glass electric cooktop. I shopped a lot of different ones and this one caught my eye. The looks were incredible and was amazed at how fast and evenly it cooks. The price was great compared to models that were 1 to 2 thousand dollars. I would recommend the Empava cook top to anyone looking for a great product at an affordable price.
