Ratings & Reviews for Empava 36-in 5 burners Black Induction Cooktop with Bridge Element

Substandard Wiring

We purchased this cooktop from another supplier and found it came with 10 gauge wiring instead of 8 gauge, which is what our electrician says is recommended for 40amps. The 10 gauge is too small, below code for the US, and could potentially cause a house fire. We returned it.

Super fast heating

Super fast heating, portable, lightweight, easy to clean

Nice Empava induction cooktop

I like it was easy to install and looks nice, very efficient power wise.

Almost too hot

This stove is great. Easy to use and the buttons are very responsive. Installation was a little difficult because the cord is short by almost 3 inches, so be aware of where the electrical connection is. The stove itself is amazing how quickly it gets hot. It can be a learning curve to adjust your cooking time, especially anything fried in oil. We've tried out all the settings, including Flex bridge. The Flex bridge is great for big pots of boiling water.

Heats up quickly

Works great while only requiring a normal 15 amp plug.

Energy efficient, fast response to temp changes.

I am sorry I did not purchase this cooktop years ago. Induction cooking uses less electricity than the alternative. I am in a rental home with a stove that does not work properly. That was the primary reason I purchased the Empava induction cooktop...which is efficient and has super fast responses to every temperature change I make. With the correct cookware, I can bring water to a boil in less than a minute. Cooktop buttons can be locked and that is advantageous if you have children and/or p...

Horrible Cooktop

Out of the box we have error codes, the largest burner not working and the entire time I used it the unit beeped because water came out of the pan. The company won't do anything about the cooktop and so far Lowe's can't find anyone to repair it or replace it. SO FRUSTRATING!

Great cooktop for a small space.

Great cooktop for a small space. Simple and easy 110v plug also. I flush mounted it in counter or can be used as a portable countertop appliance as it comes with rubber feet that can be screwed in

Pros & Cons

I waited until I had used our two-burner induction cooktop for a few months before writing this review. Here's my take. PROS: - SIZE It fits nicely in an 18-inch base cabinet. By tacking the cord up out of the way, we are even still able to use the top drawer in the cabinet. - INDUCTION Nothing else would do. - APPEARANCE Has a nice, sleek, modern look that's easy to keep clean and tidy. CONS: CUMBERSOME OPERATION - Since the controls are on the cooktop, where they can accidentally be trigger...

Terrible beyond noisy

This is awful. Absolutely awful. No thing can make this sound and be okay for your physical health. It took 3 purchases to get one that worked, and that sound tells me it doesn't work.

Smart Induction Cooker

This induction cooker is the best one I have used. I put it on the left side of the gas stove. The control of the two stoves is interoperable. Keep 1800w, it will not trip due to excessive current, the noise is small, and the lack of tail is timing control. Start I like to start every minute and set it to start every hour.

Poorly implemented induction.

I have been using induction for years.I bought this to replace my old induction cooktop. I thought all induction worked the same and this would be similar to my old cooktop. I am very disappointed. This cycles between over-heating and under-heating to disastrous effect. My old induction cooktop heated up uniformly without this over-heat/too-cold cycle. If you are switching from a regular electric cooktop, this might be a slight improvement. If you are already familiar with good induction cooktop...

Excellent Induction cook top

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.
