The glass smooth surface with ceramic coating that the cooktops have, ensures faster and more even heating thanks to the heating elements located beneath their surface. Additionally, they are also independent so that the oven does not determine where they will be placed, and it is worth noting that they are particularly easy to clean compared to other cooking surfaces.
A type of cooktop that competes with ceramic cooktops is the induction cooktop, which has several similarities with the former. Some of these include the fact that both operate with electricity, both have a flat cooking surface to provide even heat distribution, and finally, both are efficient and fast, saving time and energy in cooking.
Despite their many similarities, the main difference between them, apart from the fact that induction cooktops represent the latest in cooking technology, lies in their completely different operating method. The innovation lies in the fact that the cooktops themselves do not heat up, but the base of the cookware does. By placing the cookware on the cooktop, a magnetic field is created that causes the metal molecules to vibrate and thus heat the device.
In summary, we could say that ceramic cooktops can be a good and economical choice compared to induction cooktops, as they can combine quality and price.
