Sharp Cooktops With Bridge Elements, Simmer Enhancer & Bright LED Controls
Sharp cooktops combine thoughtful control features with versatile heating options in 24- and 30-inch widths finished in black or stainless steel. Designed for flexible meal prep, they offer a dedicated bridge element for griddles or elongated pans, along with a Simmer Enhancer that keeps delicate sauces and melts at steady low temperatures. Bright white LED controls improve visibility on the cooking surface, while integrated residual heat indicators and a lockable keypad add everyday safety. Select models feature magnetic stainless steel side accessories that are dishwasher safe, helping keep tools within reach, and pair beautifully with Sharp’s Easy Wave Open Microwave Drawer for a cohesive, convenience-driven kitchen setup.
