The type is induction, meaning that only the bottom of the cookware is heated and not the entire cooktop, resulting in the surrounding area remaining cool to the touch. It uses less energy compared to other types of cooktops and cooking time is reduced by half.
For example, water boils in less than 90 seconds.
Cleaning it is very easy, as the area around the cookware remains cool, so anything spilled does not heat up and stick to the surface.
A necessary condition for this type of cooktop is that the cookware must be compatible with induction cooktops, meaning made of stainless steel or cast iron, as not all types of cookware can be used. Finally, if you have small children, they are considered the safest option.
