cooktop
Kitchen heating platform
A cooktop is the flat cooking surface of a stove, containing burners or heating elements.
The term often distinguishes a built-in unit from a freestanding range: We installed a gas cooktop in the kitchen island.
Cooktops may use gas, electric coils, or induction technology.
