Consumer Induction Cooktop Market - Forecasts from 2022 to 2027

The global consumer induction cooktop market size was valued at US$11.734 billion in 2020.

Induction cooktops automatically shut off when the cookware is not present on top of them, making them safer to use as well as energy-efficient as compared to conventional cooktops. While using induction cooktops, only the pan becomes hot while the outer cooktop stays cool, providing another great safety feature, especially for households with young children. Also, induction cooktops take less time to cook food as compared to other types of cooktops. Furthermore, the induction cooktop is safer than the gas cooktop due to the absence of open flames, as in the case of gas cooktops, which is also contributing to their growing popularity among consumers.
