Frigidaire PCCI3680AF Professional 36 inch Induction Cooktop with 5 Elements, Backlit LED Knobs, Energy Star Certified, in Stainless Steel

Features:

Easy-to-Clean Cooktop

Unlike traditional electric and gas cooktops, Induction only heats the pan and the food in it, so the area around the pan stays cooler, allowing you to clean up spills and splatters while you cook.

Boils 2x Faster

Induction cooktops boil water 50% faster than gas cooktops.

Professional Look and Performance

Designed with front control knobs for a more professional design, while delivering high-level performance.

Convenient Bridge Element

Connects two elements to allow for simultaneous control, perfect for a griddle pan.

Backlit LED Knobs

Backlit LED knobs light up when your element is in use.

Extra Large 11-inch Burner

Features an extra large 11-inch, 3,600 Watt burner

Incredibly Responsive

Induction goes from a low simmer to a powerful boil, almost immediately.

Peace of Mind with the Frigidaire® Fit Promise

We promise that your new 30" Frigidaire Professional induction cooktop will fit your existing countertop cutout of the same width and configuration, or we will reimburse you for cabinet modification costs up to $100.

Compatible with most cookware

Most stainless steel and cast-iron cookware are compatible with induction elements. Rule of thumb: if a magnet sticks to the bottom of the cookware, it’s induction compatible.

Energy Star Certified

Since induction heats the pan directly, less heat loss in the cooking process making it a more energy efficient way to cook.

Smudge-Proof® Stainless Steel

Resists fingerprints and cleans easily.

Safer cooktop surface

Induction only heats the pan and the food in it, so the area around the pan stays cooler.
