Westinghouse induction cooktop
We are really happy with our Westinghouse induction cooktop. We never had to replace any other pants. And if you need to check you could use a magnet on the base to see if the magnets are strong connection. We bought the induction cooktop that had three places on it to cook one large one and two small ones the two small ones can be changed to one whole one. The cooktop cooks really well and we have no complaints. We are really happy with it. The dearest password part was fitting it.

Useful Layout
Very effective stove, huge relief as an upgrade from electric in our house. Heats up quickly and actually gets hot enough to sear. I really love the layout, we can fit 2 big pans on together and the heading elements are large enough to heat evenly

At a glance
This 60cm Westinghouse induction cooktop is a flexible option for households wanting fast, responsive cooking in a compact footprint. It suits smaller kitchens or families needing adaptable zones for everyday meals, larger pans and simple control. Key strengths include the Bridge Zone, MaxiZone, BoilProtect and easy-clean surface. A limitation is that with three zones, it offers less simultaneous cooking capacity than larger 4-zone premium models.
What it’s great for
- Everyday Home Cooking
- Small Family Meals
- Flexible Pan Sizes
- Fast Boiling
- Easy Weeknight Dinners
Where it works best
- Family Kitchen
- Apartment Kitchen
- Compact Modern Kitchen
- Renovated Home Kitchen
Who it’s for
- Small Family
- Couple
- Home Cook
- Renovator
- Downsizer
Things to consider
It offers strong flexibility for a 60cm model, but cooks who regularly prepare multiple dishes at once may prefer a larger 4-zone or wider premium cooktop for more simultaneous capacity.
Family cooking suitability
7/10 - well suited to couples and small families, with flexible zones for varied cookware but only three zones for simultaneous cooking.
Energy efficiency score
8/10 - induction cooking directs heat to compatible cookware rather than heating the cooktop surface, supporting responsive cooking with less wasted heat.
Cookware compatibility assessment
Requires induction-compatible cookware; best results come from magnetic-based pots and pans.
Safety rating
8/10 - strong everyday safety features including child lock, residual heat indicator and boil-over management support.
Ease of cleaning
9/10 - the smooth glass ceramic surface is easy to wipe clean because spills are less likely to bake onto the surface than on traditional radiant cooktops.
Key benefits
- Bridge Zone: Links two zones together so larger cookware such as griddles or elongated pans can heat more evenly.
- MaxiZone: Provides space for oversized pans, making it easier to handle bigger pots for batch cooking.
- Touch and Slide Controls: Lets you adjust heat quickly and precisely with nine power levels for different cooking tasks.
- 99 Minute Timer: Helps manage cooking times and supports more controlled meal preparation.
- BoilProtect: Detects rising bubbles in water and reduces heat to a simmer to help prevent boil overs when used with compatible pots.
- Hob2Hood Compatibility: Can communicate with compatible rangehoods for more convenient automatic extraction control.
- Child Lock: Adds peace of mind by helping prevent unintended operation.
- Glass Ceramic Surface: Wipes down easily after cooking for simpler everyday cleaning.
Q: Will my existing pots work on this induction cooktop?
A: Yes, if the cookware has a magnetic, induction-ready base. Pots and pans that are not magnetic, including some aluminium, copper or glass pieces, will not heat on the WHI635BE, even if they fit the cooking zone.
Q: How does the Bridge Zone help with larger cookware?
A: The Bridge Zone links two cooking areas so longer or larger cookware can heat across a wider section of the cooktop. It is useful for rectangular pans or grill plates, but the pan base still needs good contact with the glass surface.
Q: Does BoilProtect work with every pot and pan?
A: No. BoilProtect is designed to detect rising bubbles in boiling water and then reduce heat to a simmer when a compatible pot is used. It is not a general anti-spill setting for every pan, sauce or oil-based cooking task.
Q: What rangehood do I need for Hob2Hood to work?
A: Hob2Hood needs a compatible rangehood that supports the same function. The WHI635BE still works as a normal induction cooktop without one, but fan speed and extraction will need to be adjusted from the rangehood instead.
Q: Can this 60cm cooktop handle two large pans at once?
A: Yes, within the limits of a 60cm surface. The WHI635BE combines a MaxiZone with two other cooking areas, so two larger pans are practical, but very wide cookware can reduce clearance around nearby zones and the touch controls.
Q: What's the safest way to clean the glass ceramic surface?
A: Wait until the residual heat indicator shows the surface is no longer hot, then wipe it with a soft cloth. Induction spills are often easier to remove than on radiant electric cooktops, but sugary residue should not be left to bake on.
