"Consumer Reports has reams of data over the decades about both consumer satisfaction and the reliability of every big-name cooktop. Its ratings, which it calls 'predicted reliability,' are gathered directly from surveys of customers, reporting repair and breakage rates going back 10 years to 2015."
"Unfortunately, there is no one clear winner across all three types of cooktops, with only Bosch managing to show up more than once. LG also tends to score highly in overall reliability and tops the induction rankings."
Choosing a cooktop has become more complex with the introduction of induction cooktops alongside traditional electric and gas options. Induction cooktops use electromagnetic waves to heat compatible pans, offering advantages of both styles but often at a higher cost. Consumer Reports provides reliability ratings based on customer surveys and repair rates, grading brands on a 1-100 scale. Bosch appears multiple times in the rankings, while LG excels in induction cooktops. The report also identifies poorly performing brands to help consumers make informed choices.
