    Overview

    When it comes to cooking, timing is everything. That’s why this 75cm 4-Zone induction cooktop from Westinghouse is designed for precision and flexibility.

    This cooktop makes it easier to cook multiple dishes at once thanks to the Timer feature. You set the time and the cooktop can automatically turn off the heat. And with four cooking zones, you can prepare multi-course meals or complex dishes with ease. When you want to prepare a fast and easy meal and need to quickly heat up a pot or a pan, the PowerBoost function will boil water and heat up your cooking oil in no time. When you’re busy cooking for a dinner party and need a few moments to welcome your guests, you can use the Pause function to switch all the induction zones into Keep Warm mode. Once you’re ready to return to your dishes, you can press the Pause button again and it will revert back to the previous heat setting.

    With this cooktop from Westinghouse, you can time your cooking to perfection, and enjoy delicious results time and time again.
    Pause function

    When you need to put your cooking on hold, you can use the Pause function on your cooktop to bring down all the cooking zones to Keep Warm mode. Once you’re ready to cook, you can press the Pause button again to bring it back to your previous heat settings.

    PowerBoost feature

    When you need to rapidly heat up your pots and pans, the PowerBoost feature can help you get started on your cooking faster meaning less time waiting and more time eating.

    Four cooking zones

    You can use up to four cooking zones on this cooktop, enabling greater flexibility and versatility. You can make your favourite dishes and its accompanying sauces and sides at the same time.

    Timer mode

    This cooktop has a Timer feature so you can set how long you want the cooking zones to operate. This helps to prevent your food from being overcooked or undercooked.

    Excellent, works as advertised.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased in October 2024. Fantastic unit, works as advertised. Heats my cast iron skillets and pots like a gas cooker but without the gas There are a few little quirks to get used to at first, eg it doesn't like working if there's a few drops of water, but I think that's just the nature of induction cooking. It's also not great for using a wok due to the flat cooking surface, but again that's more because it's induction and not a flaw with the product itself.

    Induction Cooktop
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our new Westinghouse induction cooktop is easy to use, easy to clean and with most of our cooking we can just set the timer and forget until it's done - with no worry about boiling over etc as the temperature control is so consistent.

    Too expensive to fail only after 4 years.
    It works great until it doesn't. Same.as the 5 year old Electrolux it replaced. Error E8 21. Temperature sensor failure after only 4 years. Not impressed.

    Questions & answers

    Hello I have an existing bench cutout of 610 W by 493 Deep. Bench top thickness is 35 mmm. Can I install a Westinghouse Induction cooktop WH1743BC with the details I just mentioned ? Thank you Regards Geoff Geoff · 2023-03-21
    Good Morning, Thank you for this product question, Yes this is able to be installed into that space this new model has a cut-out of 560mm x 490mm, your installer will need to pack the underside to narrow the overall cut-out size. Best to also have the electrician double-check the electrics to make sure that the current electrical cable to your old cooktop is suitable as per our website this new cooktop draws 6.5kw or (27Amps). I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Hi, we have a new 70cm induction cooktop and had some stains after cooking which we cleaned after cooking and noticed the stain not coming out even after several clean downs as per instruction manual, can you suggest how to remove these. Anonymous · 2023-01-04
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this product question you may need to purchase a scrapper that has a razor blade inside and use this over the top of your cooktop you remove any burnt-on stains, then also purchase some ceramic cooktop cleaner such as Hillmark Ceramic cooktop cleaner I am aware that Bunnings sells this type of product Hillmark also do the scrapper in a pack with replacement blades. On our website we also have the user manual for this item online that you are able to download from page 15 onwards talks about how to care for your new cooktop I'll attach the manual below for you to view: https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/public/manuals/WHI743BC-Westinghouse-User-Manual.pdf I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online.

    Hi there. Please recommend best westinghouse integrated range hood for this cooktop? I was thinking WRI524BB but it is only 52cm wide. Lucas · 2022-06-27
    Good Morning, Thank you for this product question this selection of which model will also be determined by the kitchen design, the rangehood should cover the cooktop surface where possible. Your kitchen cupboard above the cooktop will determine what size rangehood you place above I prefer to cover the cooktop surface where possible, the model u selected will work well with a 60cm cupboard however if you are able to extend the width of the cupboard I would be more inclined to look at this model WRI814BB same brand different style & width. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Hi, my house electric stoke is 25AMP, does it support it? Jordan · 2022-06-25
    Good Evening, Thank you for this product question, to connect this cooktop you require 6.6kw or 27.5 amps the best option would be to chat to your electrician you may be able to upgrade the circuit breaker to a larger amperage depending on the rating of the electrical cable currently installed, please chat to your local electrician. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
