If you’re looking to upgrade or install a new cooktop, there are many things to consider before making your final choice including which cooktop function is right for you; electric, gas or induction.
A cooktop should complement your kitchen and make cooking more enjoyable. Trying to fit multiple pans on a cooktop that isn’t engineered to standard is impractical and makes cooking more time-consuming; it also leads to uneven heat distribution.
Purchasing a new cooktop is an investment of time and money; you want to ensure the cooktop you select will serve you now and into the future. Key considerations include design, colour, longevity, dimensions, and price.
When choosing the best cooktop, consider whether it is for personal use or an investment property. For investment properties, a practical and affordable cooktop may suffice. For personal use, a higher-end cooktop that complements your kitchen style may be preferred.
Sizing
One of the first considerations when buying a cooktop is the size of your space. A properly sized cooktop ensures optimal functionality without compromising power, quality, or safety. Goldline offers a range of premium cooktops designed for small and large spaces.
Narrow Cooktops for Small Spaces
Small spaces don’t mean sacrificing performance. A well-designed narrow cooktop can accommodate multiple pans and provide lasting power and durability, ensuring cooking remains enjoyable.
Large Cooktops
For wider kitchens, a 90cm cooktop with three or five burners may be ideal. Goldline cooktops are designed so all burners can be used simultaneously. A five-burner model with a dual wok burner is perfect for larger families or entertaining.
Electric Cooktops
Electric cooktops offer easier installation, simple cleaning, and a cooler kitchen environment, as electricity is distributed differently from gas. They are a practical choice for many households.
Gas Cooktops
Gas cooktops provide precise cooking control and high heat output. They are durable, and the visible flame makes heat adjustments intuitive. Gas cooktops remain functional during power outages, offering reliability.
Induction Cooktops
Induction cooktops heat only the cookware, leaving the surface cooler and reducing electricity waste. However, they require induction-compatible cookware, which can be expensive. Induction is generally not recommended for rental properties due to this limitation.
Quality
Investing in a high-quality cooktop reduces future maintenance and replacement costs. Goldline cooktops are engineered to last, featuring innovative technology like built-in Flame Failure Devices. Their range includes narrow and large cooktops, with gas and electric options suitable for all spaces.
Safety
Older cooktops often lack essential safety features. Goldline prioritises safety with child safety switches on electric cooktops and Flame Failure Devices on gas models. Properly engineered cooktops minimise the risk of injury or fire.
Design
Cooktops come in various styles and colours to complement your kitchen. Goldline combines quality engineering with sleek frameless glass surfaces and smart touch controls, offering modern styling for any space.
