Easy to clean, powerful cooktop
We all like the modern design, three cookers are enough for our daily use, much better than 4 cookers. Glass top is more easier to clean, plus the most important, it has powerful work cooker, save my time and help me cook better delicious dish

At a glance
This 60cm gas on glass cooktop is a practical fit for small families or shared homes that want flexible gas cooking in a standard benchtop space. Its standout strengths are the 19 MJ/h wok burner, dual valve flame control and sturdy cast iron trivets. A key limitation is the 3 burner layout, which offers less simultaneous cooking capacity than larger 4 or 5 burner models.

- Everyday Family Cooking
- Stir-frying
- Boiling and Simmering
- Shared Household Meal Prep
Where it works best
- Family Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Smaller Household Kitchen

Who it’s for
- Small Family
- Shared Household
- Everyday Home Cook
- Home Cook Who Uses a Wok
Things to consider
The 3 burner configuration is versatile for everyday use, but larger households or keen entertainers may prefer a 4 or 5 burner cooktop for more simultaneous cooking space.
Home chef suitability score
8/10 - Strong wok performance, precise flame control and sturdy pan support make it well suited to confident everyday cooking.
Kitchen space fit
Best suited to standard 60cm kitchen layouts where you want gas cooking performance without moving to a larger multi-burner cooktop.
Easy cleaning rating
8/10 - The ceramic glass surface is easy to wipe, though cast iron trivets still need separate cleaning.
Simmer control performance
8/10 - Dual valve control supports more accurate low-flame adjustment for sauces, simmering and gentle cooking.
Installation flexibility
Designed for standard 60cm benchtop spaces, but installation must be completed by a licensed plumber.
Key benefits
- 19 MJ/h wok burner: Delivers strong heat for fast stir-frying, searing and bringing large pans up to temperature quickly.
- Dual valve flame control: Lets you fine-tune the flame more precisely for gentle simmering through to high-heat cooking.
- Black ceramic glass surface: Gives the cooktop a sleek modern look and a flat surface that is simpler to wipe down after cooking.
- Cast iron trivets: Provide stable, durable support for pots and pans during everyday cooking.
- Electronic under-knob ignition: Makes burner lighting straightforward without needing a separate lighter.
- Flame failure protection: Automatically shuts off the gas supply if a flame goes out for added day-to-day safety.
- 3 burner layout: Offers useful flexibility for cooking multiple dishes at once while keeping the footprint suited to a 60cm installation space.
- Brass burner caps: Help support even flame distribution on the wok burner for consistent high-heat cooking.
Q: Is three burners enough for everyday family cooking?
A: Yes, for many households. The three-burner layout includes a dedicated 19 MJ/h wok burner and enough space for larger pans, but it is still less suited to cooking several full dishes at once than a four-burner cooktop.
Q: Will this fit a standard 60cm cooktop space?
A: Yes, in many standard 60cm benchtop layouts. WHG639BD measures 595mm wide, 530mm deep and 58mm high, but the cutout and gas connection still need to suit the cooktop, so discuss the final fit with your plumber.
Q: What happens if the flame goes out while cooking?
A: WHG639BD has flame failure protection, which shuts off the gas supply if the flame goes out. That adds a useful safety layer during everyday cooking, but it does not remove the need for licensed gas installation.
Q: Do the cast iron trivets hold large pans steadily?
A: Yes. The cast iron trivets have a flat design that gives pots and pans full base support, which helps with stability when using larger cookware, though a three-burner layout still gives less total pan space than wider cooktops.
Q: How do you light the burners on this cooktop?
A: The burners use electronic under-knob ignition, so they light from the control knob rather than needing a separate lighter. That keeps operation straightforward, but gas connection and setup still require a licensed plumber.
Q: Is the black glass surface practical for regular cooking?
A: Yes. The ceramic glass surface is designed to handle daily cooking and gives a flatter area to wipe down than a fully raised metal base, though black glass can show splatters and fingerprints more readily between cleans.
