    Product Overview

    Product Overview

    20,000 BTU Professional Dual Ring Burner

    Allows you to go from one small flame for precise simmering to a dual flame for powerful boiling, all on the same burner.

    Removable Griddle Included

    Provides a one-piece flat surface that can be used on the right, left, or center of the cooktop surface, and is ideal for making a range of dishes from crepes to quesadillas.

    Multi-Finish Back-Lit Knobs

    Deliver a beautiful accent with pleasant LED lights that let you know when the burner is in use.

    6,000 BTU Even-Heat™ Simmer Burner

    A diffuser plate allows more control of the flame at the lowest setting, for more precise simmering and melting.

    Full-Width Cast-Iron Grates

    Enhance the beautiful look of the cooktop and allow easy movement of cookware around the entire cooking surface.

    10,000 BTU Even-Heat™ Torch Burner

    Features an exclusive design that provides a small flame for delicate simmering and a larger one that distributes high heat across the whole pan for more even cooking.

    CookShield Finish

    protects the cooktop from stains that may occur with high temperature cooking. The permanent finish makes it easy to wipe clean without harsh chemicals so it looks clean, bright and beautiful even longer.

    Electronic Ignition and Automatic Re-Ignition
    LP Conversion Kit

    Allows you to convert the cooktop so it can be used with LP gas.

    Lights burners with an electric spark instead of a pilot light. For more reliable performance, burners are relit if the flame is blown out.
