RETAILOBSERVER.COM JULY 2019 24 THOR KITCHEN DEBUTS NEW PRO-STYLE INDUCTION COOKTOPS AT ONE-THIRD THE COST OF COMPARABLE BRANDS ON THE MARKET Multiple models offer energy efficiency, faster cook times and built-in safety features THOR Kitchen – manufacturer of pro-style kitchen appliances – launches a series of new, pro-style Induction Cooktops at one-third the cost of other premium brands, offering the most affordable pro- style induction cooktops in the industry. Induction is inherently more energy-efficient and features faster heat-up times compared to gas or electric cooktops, and THOR's Induction Cooktops feature digital timers, a hot-surface indicator light for safety purposes, and digital blue LED displays for a sleek yet practical design. "Induction Cooktops have recently become more widely embraced in kitchens, and we are now thrilled to bring ours to homeowners at a more affordable price," said Kyle You, THOR Kitchen managing director. "This is also a great cooktop option for smaller kitchens, since induction gives off less heat and won't warm up the kitchen during those hot summer months yet helps reduce energy costs throughout the year." THOR's Induction Cooktops are available in the Household Series and Elite Series, both in 30- and 36-inch models with four and five burners respectively. The Household Series features a sleek black glass cooktop, while the Elite Series features clear glass with a gray undertone and has a higher power output. Powered by electromagnetic fields below the glass cooktop with the current transferred directly, the cooktop instantly heats the magnetic cookware. The direct transfer of heat does not heat up kitchens like a traditional gas or electric stove and boasts energy efficiency as an additional appliance feature. It also adds a safety benefit since heat is not directly generated on the cooktop. Additional features include a hot surface indicator light, digital timer, easy-to-read digital LED display and easy-to-clean glass cooktops.
