Easy and intuitive control

With Virtual Flame Technology ™ you can enjoy the intuitive visual control of flames. LED lighting in front of the burners glows like a real gas flame to clearly show if they're on or off, giving added peace of mind.

Precise Power Control & Easier Cleaning

Choose between a removable magnetic analog knob and digital touch controls. And because it can be completely detached it also makes it easier to clean the entire surface of the cooktop.

Merge Elements

Use your oversized pots and pans to cook without worrying about evenly distributed heat.The FlexCook Zone is a large, open area that offers greater flexibility for cooking multiple dishes, by bridging two left elements to create one large element. It can accommodate different sizes of cookware to cook everything evenly and efficiently without “dead zones”.

Remote & convenient cooktop monitoring

Wi-Fi Connectivity maximizes safety and offers peace of mind by letting you remotely monitor the cooktop at any time using a smartphone App*, while setting the cooking timer and receiving alerts when it finishes.

One-touch control of both cooktop & hood

Automatically syncs the fan and the lights with the burners through Bluetooth. Auto Connectivity* aligns the hood and cooktop's status so you can control the hood using the one-touch control of the cooktop, instantly turning them both ‘On' or ‘Off', for the ultimate in cooking convenience.

Intensive power, extra flexibility

A high power 4800 W 7/11” Dual Burner combines intense heat and precise control for maximum cooking efficiency and flexibility. A Power Boost function can reduce cooking times even more with an extra boost of heat. Or change from a powerful high heat to a true simmer quickly for intense and even cooking.

Simmer & melt food without burning

The Simmer/Melt function ensures that the cooking temperature stays low. With more precise control it provides the optimum conditions for gently simmering or melting food, like chocolate or butter, without burning.

Safety Lock

The safety lock functions allows for the control panel to be completely locked with just the touch of a button.

Automatically safer to prevent accidents

A Safety Shutoff provides complete peace of mind. It automatically turns off any cooking zones if things have been left cooking on them for a long time or there's no change in the operation after a certain period.

Safe and efficient residual heat use

A 2 Stage Residual Heat Indicator lets you safely and efficiently use any residual heat for cooking. It clearly shows an 'h' if a cooking zone is hot or an 'H' if it is very hot, but turns off when safe to touch.

1 Meh

It really is a love hate relationship with this cook top. I love how easy it is to clean, the flex zone is a neat and useful feature. However the lights, while nice are just a gimmick as is the knob, the main element is set far back so it isn't comfortable if you're doing things like a stir-fry, and has a surprising amount of hot spots. I would not buy it again nor recommend it to another person. The timer is EXTREMELY quiet and super easy to miss even when in the same room. I have cats, and they turn the child lock off constantly, and it is in a too easy spot for little fingers to reach.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

1 This cooktop is so frustrated

I bought this two years ago and I wanted to return it so badly the first time I use it. The cooktop is so sensitive, so you have to guarantee you never get the surface wet or the 60 error message will appear and it stop cooking. The error message normally went away after few seconds. But sometimes it stays forever, I have to cut off the power in order to get it restarted. It really test your temperament when you are busy preparing dinner. About 2 months ago, two right burners suddenly stopped working and magically started working again after 1 month. I am waiting for this cooktop to completely die and buy a none samsung cooktop.

My wife and I shopped a lot prior to choosing this unit and we are extremely happy that we have chosen this unit. We find it very user friendly and simple to operate. Food in pans and pots heat and cook extremely fast. We love the flame technology only offered by Samsung.Very easy to clean surface. Another success product by Samsung. This is not our only product under this name. Always satisfied.

4 It heats fast and evenly

“i received compensation for this review but the review is my own” i really like the cooktop. it heats evenly and fast. boiled a huge pot of water for lasagna in less than 10 minutes. normal 2 qt sauce pain will boil water in about 2-3 minutes. they dont’t easily tell you inside hole dimensions have 2 measurements. will it fit in counter and is it too small for existing counter hole? waiting for custok milled aluminum plate to feel more sexure because existinc counter top hole is too large. it covers evrything, but there may be a lot of weight restinfnon a small lip. takes getting used to touch controls. after using for a few weeks we are both getting better. the magnetic knob is neat, but faster with touch control.

3 Just ordered -- very excited!

i just received this samsung cooktop! it arrived right on time and was received only about 2 weeks after ordering -- no small feat in this day and age of supply chain issues. i gave three stars because i have not yet installed this cooktop, and i will update the review accordingly after using the appliance. samsung was insistent on receiving a review before fulfilling the promotion for free induction cookware, so this review is a bit premature. “i received compensation for this review but the review is my own”.

5 Heats fast

so far, i love my cooktop. this is my first induction cooktop, definitely a learning curve for the temps. the magnetic knobs are not great. i prefer to use my finger to adjust the temp. i ordered from best buy, was delivered a week after purchase. i received compensation for this review but the review is my own.

4 Nice.

cooktop is really nice in terms of its appearance, almost futuristic. we remodeled our kitchen recently, and it goes extremely well with the modern-look of the kitchen. at first, the controls were a little wonky, but it is relatively easy to use and to get down. i received compensation for this review but the review is my own.

5 Sleek and modern

i received compensation for this review but the review is my own. this cooktop has a friendlier to use design than many of the competitors i looked at. the knob is a neat idea but i probably won't use it much. i love that the main burner has more power available than competitors. overall a great cooktop.
