Just wonderful
I love the instantaneous speed of heat yet the safety of a cool top & the simplicity of cleaning. This model has all the extras that top brands offer, for a fraction of the price! Both of us preferred gas, had almost always had gas cooktops in our 70+ years. Both of us are now, absolute converts!

First induction Cooktop, very happy!
Love my new cooktop, the controls are super easy. love the boil protect and controls are super easy to see and responsive. Have had trouble in the past with some ceramic cooktop controls both cheaper ones and expensive.

Love the boilover protect feature!
Very happy with our Westinghouse induction cooktop. Good price point and has many features that we appreciate including boil protect, extendable zone for bigger pot sizes, rapid heating, etc. The surface looks good and is easy to clean.

At a glance
The Westinghouse 60cm Induction Cooktop is a practical four-zone model for busy homes that want fast heat response, flexible cooking space and useful safety features. It suits families and regular home cooks thanks to its bridge zone, timer, pause function and boil-over protection. The main limitation is that it requires induction-compatible cookware and does not offer the advanced zone flexibility of more premium cooktops.
What it’s great for
- Everyday Family Cooking
- Weeknight Meals
- Multi-Dish Meal Prep
- Entertaining
Where it works best
- Family Kitchen
- Open-Plan Home
- Apartment Kitchen
- Everyday Home Cooking Setup
Who it’s for
- Family Households
- Everyday Home Cooks
- Busy Parents
- Home Entertainers
Things to consider
It needs induction-compatible cookware and lacks the broader flexible cooking surfaces found on some premium induction cooktops.
Family cooking suitability
High - four zones, bridge cooking and timer control suit regular family meal preparation
Energy efficiency score
8/10 - induction heats cookware directly for responsive cooking with less wasted heat than typical radiant electric cooktops
Cookware compatibility assessment
Requires induction-compatible magnetic cookware; best suited to households already using or willing to switch to induction-ready pots and pans
Safety rating
8/10 - child lock, residual heat indicator, pause function and boil-over protection add practical everyday safety
Ease of cleaning
9/10 - the flat glass ceramic surface is easy to wipe down after cooking
Key benefits
- Bridge Zone: combines two zones to better accommodate larger cookware such as griddles or oversized pans.
- BoilProtect: detects rising bubbles in compatible pots and reduces heat to help prevent boil-overs.
- Touch and Slide Controls: makes heat adjustments quick and intuitive during active cooking.
- Programmable Timer: helps manage multiple dishes by timing zones more accurately.
- Hob2Hood: can link with compatible rangehoods for more automatic ventilation control.
- Pause Function: lets you temporarily lower heat across all zones if cooking is interrupted.
- Child Lock: helps reduce accidental changes to settings in homes with children.
- Residual Heat Indicator: shows when the surface is still hot to support safer use after cooking.
Q: Does this induction cooktop need special pots and pans to work?
A: Yes. This cooktop requires induction-compatible cookware with a magnetic base. Aluminium, copper or glass cookware will not heat unless the base is induction suitable, and BoilProtect only works with compatible stainless steel and enamelled pots filled with water.
Q: Will Hob2Hood work with any rangehood or only compatible models?
A: No. Hob2Hood works only with compatible rangehoods that support the same function. If your rangehood does not support it, the cooktop still operates normally, but fan speed and lighting stay controlled from the rangehood itself.
Q: Can the bridge zone handle a large roasting pan or griddle?
A: Yes. The bridge zone links two cooking zones so longer cookware like a roasting pan or griddle can sit across both. Heat is focused across those joined zones rather than the whole glass surface, so pan size and placement still matter.
Q: What does BoilProtect actually do when water starts bubbling over?
A: It detects rising bubbles in compatible pots and reduces heat to help stop a boil-over from spilling. It is designed for water in compatible stainless steel and enamelled pots, so it is not a universal overflow control for every pan or recipe.
Q: Can I pause all zones without losing my cooking settings?
A: Yes. The pause function temporarily lowers cooking activity across all zones so you can step away and then continue. It is meant for short interruptions during cooking, not as a separate long-term holding or warming mode.
Q: Is the glass surface still hot after cooking finishes?
A: Yes. The glass can stay hot from heat left in the cookware and transferred to the surface during cooking. This model includes a residual heat indicator, which helps show when an area is still too hot to clean or touch straight away.
