Browse Forums Kitchen Appliances 1 Apr 24, 2010 10:38 pm Hello we have made the plunge and purchased an induction cooktop, (siemens)..after reading their booklets they advise that it be fitted into a granite or natural stone benchtop..has anybody ignored this and had it installed into laminate/caesar stone etc...can't take it back so its definately going in but just want to make sure we do it right. Many thanks Re: induction cooktops and benchtops 2Apr 24, 2010 11:08 pm We haven't yet.... but will be. We got a Miele induction cooktop, which will sit flush with the caesarstone benchtop. Neither the place we bought it from, nor the kitchen makers have said it will be an issue... so I certainly hope not! Otherwise expensive mistake...

Ditto with us Moogles-our Blanco Induction cooktop is going into a Quantum Quartz benchtop. I actually happened to get the opportunity to speak with one of the blanco reps and was not told that there would be a problem.

Re: induction cooktops and benchtops 7Apr 27, 2010 1:09 pm My mum's had a St George Induction Cooktop in the a timber bench for more than five years with no problem. Only issue for her is she needs to open the cupboard underneath to ensure that the unit gets enough air flow as it was retrofitted.
