Discover
the Power, Speed and Efficiency of Induction Cooking with new
GE Profile Induction Cooktop
Imagine preparing filets, sauces, seafood and stir-fry without overheating the kitchen, and breezing through clean-up because spills don't cook onto the surface. Efficient and powerful, induction cooking has been popular in commercial kitchens and European kitchens for years. Now GE Profile is making it available to consumers with the GE Profile 30- and 36-inch induction cooktop with unique glass cooktop finishes |
| How induction
cooking works |
|
|
With induction cooking, electricity flows through a coil underneath the ceramic cooktop, producing a magnetic field. A magnetic pan - such as cast iron or magnetic stainless steel - placed on the element of an induction cooktop will create a current that will heat the pan and the food inside. To test whether your cookware will work with an induction cooktop, simply hold a magnet to it. If the magnet sticks, your pans should be suited for induction. Induction elements will not transfer heat to pans that are not cast iron or magnetic stainless steel
|
Besides the performance benefits, the cooktops make strikingly handsome additions to the kitchen, with nearly seamless cooking elements and luxuriant, innovative finishes. GE Profile models are available with both stainless steel and black. The rich colored glass cooktop at first glance appears black, but glows with iridescent undertones in "flash ocean blue" (black model) and "aluet" (stainless steel model).

| Benefits of GE Profile induction cooktops |
|
|
- 3700-watt output element, the industry's highest wattage
element from an induction cooktop*
- The induction element will transfer heat directly to
magnetic cookware, meaning that any part of the element
untouched by cookware will not get hot.
- Offers faster time to boil than gas or electric
cooktops
- Easier clean-up because spills won't cook onto
the stovetop
- More efficient than gas or electric cooktops**
because most of the heat is transferred directly to cookware
and the food inside, rather than the unused part of the
cooktop
- The accuracy of the Precise Digital Control System™ with
electronic touch controls
- A true "simmer" level for the gentlest warming of food
and simplified meal coordination
- Control lock capability to protect against unintended
activation
* Among leading brands, April 2007.
** Manufacturer's internal testing based on Official Time to Boil Testing of induction, gas and electric cooktops
