What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the rapid heating and energy efficiency, with most noting water boils in seconds and only the food gets hot. Many highlight instant temperature control, easy cleaning, and sleek design perfect for small kitchens. The intuitive controls and straightforward installation earn consistent approval. However, some require magnetic cookware and report uneven heating with larger pans, needing to move food constantly. A few experience defects like cracked surfaces, though replacements were offered. Despite these drawbacks, most customers consider it a transformative upgrade over traditional cooktops.

Would Not RecommendWe are on our third one, first one blew within 1 week, second one blew within 4 months. They did send us another replacement after much and back and forth, hoping this one will work! Have had to pay our electrician three times to have installed, what a pain.
Absolutely love it
Would RecommendIve had my Empava cooktop for a while now and have to say am so satisfied. It heats up super fast, its easy to clean and maintain, and still looks pretty much like new. I am impressed. Would definitely buy again
Much weaker than advertised
I used a Victron shunt on a stand alone 20amp circuit to check the power usage of the unit. The right element on "high" topped out at ~950W and the larger element on the left topped out at ~910W. Both of these numbers are lower than the advertised specs (1300 and 1800 respectively) and indicate the smaller element actually has the higher output. When both elements were on the unit consumed ~1500W by adjusting the balance of power between elements. This figure is 300W lower than its specified co...

Substandard Wiring
Would Not RecommendWe 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.

Almost too hot
Would RecommendThis 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.

Energy efficient, fast response to temp changes.
Would RecommendI 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
Would Not RecommendOut 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.
Would RecommendGreat 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
