Brilliant Cooktop
This induction cooktop is brilliant, l was concerned about changing from gas to this as most people complain about the hum and buzz induction make. This top barely makes a sound, my electric kettle and Ranghood make ten times more noise. Cooking is a breeze, temperature control is amazing, very responsive cooktop. Easy installation by our electrician and was great as it was the perfect size to replace in my stone benchtop, no alterations required. Winning. Easy to operate and very simple to understand. Love it.

Ideal size to replace 60cm ceramic
The 70cm Cooktop has plenty of room for four large saucepans. The induction system heats up much faster than the old ceramic tops. It also has little residual heat and great safety features.It has an easy to use menu system to control or combine heating areas. The timers are handy too. Good value for the money.

Q: What does the low profile design mean on the Smeg Universale 70cm induction cooktop?
A: It means the black glass sits close to the benchtop for a cleaner, less raised look than a traditional framed cooktop. That can make the surface easier to wipe across, but the exact cut-out and edge finish still need to match your benchtop.
Q: Will my existing pots and pans work on the Smeg SAI4744D induction cooktop?
A: Only cookware with a magnetic base will work on this induction model. A simple fridge magnet test is useful. If the magnet sticks firmly to the base, it is usually suitable. Aluminium, copper or glass cookware without a magnetic layer will not heat.
Q: Is a 70cm induction cooktop a practical size upgrade from a 60cm model?
A: Yes, 70cm can give more breathing space between pans than a 60cm cooktop without taking as much bench width as a 90cm model. It suits buyers who want a more flexible cooking layout, but the cabinet cut-out may not match an older 60cm opening.
Q: Why choose this Smeg induction cooktop instead of a ceramic electric cooktop?
A: Induction is usually chosen for faster heat response, tighter temperature control and lower wasted heat at the glass surface. On this Smeg model, that means quicker day to day cooking, but it also requires induction-compatible cookware to work.
Q: Can the Smeg 70cm induction cooktop be used if someone in the home has a pacemaker?
A: It may be possible, but pacemaker guidance should be followed carefully because this is an induction appliance that creates an electromagnetic field during use. The key point is to confirm the device maker's clearance and any distance advice before purchase.
