    Fantastic service
    Ordering and receipt went without incident. Unfortunately we weee unable to fit the unit into our existing cutout in our bench top. s it is engineered stone we weren’t able to modify it without replacing the entire bench top. After explaining this to Whirlpool they were understanding and gracious and offered to take it back with a full refund, including having it picked up from our home.

    Questions & answers

    Hello, I'm looking forward to purchasing Whirlpool 65cm 6th Sense FlexiSlide Induction Cooktop SMC653FBTIXL soon. Do I really have to grind down 6mm so that induction can sit flush with the bench stone? Or can I just sit it on top. brian · 2023-01-04
    Good Evening, Thank you for this product question, this model has two options for installation one you already know is flush installation to do this type of installation your builder would need to cut the extra 6mm to allow the cooktop to sit flush with your stone or the other option has the cooktop sit proud with a smaller cut-out and the lip of the cooktop sitting on the stone, both options are in the user Specification sheet below: https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/public/manuals/SMC653FBTIXL-Whirlpool-Specifications-Sheet.pdf I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online.
