Cool Features but Missed the Mark

Would Not Recommend

I waited a few months to write this review because I wanted to give it enough time to test all of the features. What I love about the stove: The stove design is very nice. I love that it has 5 burners so I can cook multiple items at once. The child lock is great also to ensure that the stove is not turned on in error. There is also a feature that makes the stove shut off once you lift the pot from the burner. What I hate about the stove: Although the 5 burners are great, if you use more than...

Easy to control heat.

We just did a kitchenette for a in-law suite. This 2 burner induction cooktop was the perfect fit. It serves us well and is very efficient.

Beautiful

super stylish. True induction. Yes this is 1800W and 120V so don't expect it to heat up food and water like those 4500W units. But if like me for some reason you want to use a standard outlet ( better have a dedicated circuit to avoid tripping) this is the unit for you. While not as powerful as larger units, it is MUCH more powerful than gas and electric stoves

I love this cooktop in our RV

We had this professionally installed into our RV countertop and got rid of the propane gas stove with oven. I love the space it saves us along with the efficiency and safety. Amazing value for the price.

Great Cooktop!

Would Recommend

We’ve had an Empava range for 5 years and like it so we decided to get the save brand of stove top. So far I love it. I like that there are no knobs. The control lock is handy, the rapid boil is very fast. We have purchased a second unit for our camper remodel.

Never heard of Empava, but we love it!

I purchased this to replace a 5 year old whirlpool gold series that magically went kaput. My wife wanted induction but OMG the price! i stumbled on empava and at such a great price point, i figured it was worth the risk. What I love: I can fit any size pot on this stove. my other stove required all kinds of arrangements to get the pots i wanted in place. the touch controls: my previous cooktop had knobs and broke and got food in the components. i now have a flat surface that cleans eas...

everyone is envious ;-)

So, I hit a snug. I ordered a fantastic oven, but didn't realize how it will fit in my newly renovated galley kitchen. Than I had a new countertop installed. Than I realized that there simply isn't enough space between the top of the new stove and the bottom of the countertop to fit my existing cook-top. oh no!!! So I turned to the internet to search for a cook-top that will fit in about 3-inches from top of the countertop - and that is how I found the Empava Induction Cook-top. I read on...

I really like the induction stove top. It does not heat up the kitchen. Only the food gets hot. I have had to look at the book a couple of times. Went to store with my magnet to get a couple new pans. Looks really nice. This is my second stove top. The first one had multiple error messages while trying to use it. Exchanged it for this one. Doing fine so far. I did get extended warranty. Customer service was great at Empava.

works great - is portable

This is a nice little cooktop. It works as a built in or a portable. Thats the issue, there was nonthing in here saying it was portable. It has some padding so it rides a little higher than i would like when used as a bult it. It also states that you should not seal this to the counter top. As this is a slightly odd size for a 2 burner i can not now choose another brand.

well made

Very easy to wire and install, took me an hour to run the wire, cut the countertop, and make the electric connections.Looks great and I already cooked pasta and steaks on this cooktop! Excellent value!

Love my new Cooktop

Would Recommend

We bought our induction cooktop without realizing that induction cooking meant that we had to get a new type of pans. We found a great deal at Kohl's for correct type of pans and we love cooking with our cooktop. Boils water in minutes. We have found we have to cook on lower heat temperatures for some things. We love how it cooks more consistently and evenly than other cooktops.

Still early but so far its great

I got this in place of a hotplate and gas stove. I bought new set pans that are specifically made for induction. This unit plugs right in to 120V! I only had for 3 weeks and used sparingly but so far all good. Boils water nearly twice as fast as gas. Amazing

Amazing Cooktop!

Would Recommend

We had a flat cooktop for the past 12 years when it suddenly quit working. The old cooktop was no longer serviceable and we wanted to buy a replacement for it. We found this cooktop on-line at Lowe's. It had the simplest design. My 88 year old mother lives with us and has learned to use this. Now here is the amazing part, we thought this would cook like our old cooktop, but instead we had the new experience of an induction cooktop! Wow! Food cooks so quickly and heat is distributed evenly...

Awesome Cooktop

Great cooktop for the money. Ease of use is a plus. Stays clean and even easier to clean. Perfect size for the space we needed. Buttons and controls ease to use. Heats food fast and water too... which we had bought sooner...
