Dream kitchens call for dream cooktops. But which brand? And should you go for a gas cooktop, an electric cooktop or an induction cooktop?  All questions you need to pose when pinpointing the perfect cooktop. To help you narrow the search, we’ve zeroed in on the top sellers at The Good Guys, plus customer reviews that reveal why these are some of the best cooktops in Australia. Read on to discover which cooktop you should buy based on our brilliant customer feedback.
Easy-clean finishes, instant heat and state-of-the-art safety features (think cool-to-touch induction cooktops) are what make a top-selling cooktop. Plus, customers want a timeless design that’s built to last.
“Having one of the latest cooktops is like having your very own personal sous-chef in the kitchen, thanks to precision heat control, fast cooking times and specialty fittings like wok burners that give you greater versatility when it comes to what you cook,” says Tania Grillinzoni, The Good Guys Buyer – Cooking and Dishwashers.
“And keep in mind when upgrading, your cooktop does not necessarily have to match your oven or rangehood. You can match the finishes or mix them up, which is another trend we’re seeing. Think black glass cooktop with stainless steel oven.”
Top-selling electric cooktop brands include Haier and Westinghouse, which garner rave reviews for their easy-clean surfaces – a bonus for busy cooks. Also top-rated is Goldline, manufacturers of slimline cooktops with a stylish, fanned element design.
Our customers rate Westinghouse and Technika ranges among the best gas cooktops. Fans of gas cooktops adore the instant heat of a gas flame and applaud modern safety features such as “flame out” off switches.
If our five-star customer reviews are any indication, then induction cooking is the way of the future. Bosch, DeLonghi and Electrolux all make top-selling induction cooktops that allow for faster meal prep and even heat distribution in sizes to suit every kitchen.
Knowing what to look for in a cooktop is easy with our Top Seller category at The Good Guys. These are five of the best-selling cooktops in Australia:
Why it’s a top seller: Safety devices such as the Flame Failure gas switch-off and sturdy trivets to keep hot pots stable get the family-friendly thumbs up. The easy-clean, flat finish is a winner too.
What customers are saying: “We love our new Westinghouse gas cooktop. The burners ignite first time, every time. It’s stylish and the perfect fit for our kitchen needs.” – Bec
“Great upgrade for my kitchen. A good range of burners in one cooktop makes cooking so much easier. I have actually bought two as I needed one for a rental property, and the tenant is very happy with it too.” – Jenny
“Awesome! Perfect size and good placed burners. Definitely recommend it!” – Ankur
Why it’s a top seller: Fast heat, instant safety cut-offs and precision temperature control are hero features buyers love. This Bosch model also features “bridging” settings so you can combine heating elements to create larger areas for family-sized pots and pans.
What customers are saying: “Love it! 5 Stars! Good to look at, easy to use and VERY quick to cook.” – Elise
“Fabulous upgrade and it didn’t require rewiring. Much quicker to cook dinner as it heats up the pan so quickly. Really easy to use and aesthetically pleasing.” – Suzanne “Love the ease of using, cleaning and the versatility of this cooktop. It is very streamlined and has a great response time. I use boost occasionally when I want quick heat. The dual zone setting is good for larger pots.” – Robyn
Why it’s a top seller: Child safety features, including locks and hot-plate warnings, are buyer-rated gems, plus this cooktop switches off when it detects a pot boiling over. The on-trend black glass top brings an easy-clean, modern finish. What customers are saying: “I like the fact it's got the safety lock on it and notifies you that the elements are still hot after cooking. It works extremely well and for the price, I would definitely recommend it.” – Belinda “Five stars! The temperature control is also good. A modern upgrade for our kitchen.” – Steve “Easy to use, with no fancy, useless extras. It’s just a simple cooktop that cleans easily.” – Diane
Why it’s a top seller: Cook meals fast using minimal energy consumption thanks to the induction technology of this spacious Electrolux 90cm Induction Cooktop; specifically heating the base of your induction-friendly cookware for quicker results as you create multiple dishes at once. What customers are saying:
“Great machine does all we want including small pots and pans.” – Ian
“We upgraded to this model from a previous model and I am extremely happy. Looks awesome as well.” – Sharon
“First time user of induction cooktop. I am loving it, it's so quick, clean and cooks beautiful. Highly recommend this product and The Good Guys for their excellent service.” – Belinda
Why it’s a top seller: A versatile triple-sized element creates an extra large hot spot for family-sized pots and pans. It’s packed with safety features, including a pause function that instantly drops the heat on all elements so you can answer the door or tend to a child’s meltdown.
What customers are saying: “Fantastic cooktop! I can’t believe how quickly it heats pots and pans. Super easy to clean as well.” – Chris
“Loving the multi-heat ring, and how easy it is to clean. It's so nice to cook on a quality appliance again. Really enjoying cooking again and thoroughly recommend it.” – Deanna
“This was a replacement for a previous Westinghouse ceramic cooktop, which lasted 25 years. The new one heats quicker and we really like the triple element, the easy-to-use touch controls. The timer is fantastic, as are the other safety features.” – Gary
