Cooktops & RangesElectric cooktops can be alone or accompanied by an oven in a range and come in two flavors: electric resistance (or just electric) or induction. Electric works by heating a coil that heats your cookware on contact. Induction works by heating your magnetic cookware directly through an electromagnetic field. Both electric options eliminate indoor air pollution from the removal of an open flame from the equation.
Induction delivers the highest efficiency of them all ranging from 80-90% and because there is no heating element or flame to touch, it's safer for you and your family. |

Stand-Alone OvensStand-alone ovens are versatile players in our homes and come in a number of different ways to apply the power of electric heat to your food.
Conventional Oven - heat source only Convection Oven - heat source + fan to circulate heat Steam Oven - heat source + water to cook with steam Combination Oven - heat source + fan + water to cook with circulated steam |
GrillsThe star of the cookout just got cleaner. Electric grills provide unmatched temperature control and power, clean with ease, and reduce exposure to harmful air pollutants from gas combustion and charcoal.
From standard full-size backyard grills that gather crowds to smaller indoor grills that serve burgers for 1, electric grills come in all shapes and sizes so there's something for everyone. |
WoksThe staple of many Asian cuisines, woks can harness the power of electricity through induction wok hobs with semicircular induction elements that curve to fit the shape of the wok or through flat-bottomed woks that sit on flat electric or induction cooktops. Induction woks can be incredibly high-powered to deliver high temperatures wok cooking demands without the hot kitchen heat they usually deliver.
