Gas Cooktops: Professional-Quality Cooking

Powerful cooking is at your fingertips with gas cooktops from Abt. These appliances are essential in any kitchen with their ability to boil, melt, sauté and simmer. If you're seeking advanced cooking results, gas cooktops are the ideal choice. Their main benefit is that you can instantly adjust the cooking temperature; controlling the flame with a simple turn of a knob means you can ease the heat on water that is boiling over or crank up the heat to sear the outside of a steak. The precision control these cooktops offer is perfect for complex or high-level dishes. With the ability to cook at the highest highs and lowest lows, these kitchen appliances open up a world of culinary possibilities. While their electric counterparts can also get the job done, they typically take longer to heat up whereas gas models heat up immediately as you instantly ignite the burner. Unlike induction cooktops, you can use any type of cookware on gas cooktops. If you love cooking with a wok, the flames on a gas stove top are essential.

Bring Home the Best

Your kitchen deserves the best of the best, and Abt is proud to offer products from top brands you trust. The large selection of brands means we also offer options for various budgets. Whether you're looking to upgrade your setup or want all your appliances to come from the same name, you'll find what you need here. Our vast selection includes options with an array of features so you can find the perfect product for your cooking preferences. One of the simplest but arguably most important features to look for is the number of burners. While we offer gas cooktops with the classic four burners, you can also find stove tops with five or six burners. More burners means more opportunities to cook multiple components of a meal at the same time, making them ideal for advanced home cooks or those that entertain often.

However, there are far more features to consider than simply the number of burners. Certain models offer different types of burners on the surface like a smaller, more precise burner for simmering. These options are great if you love making homemade sauce or often melt butter for baking. Others feature larger burners with higher BTU outputs—typically around 18,000 BTU—that are great for boiling water in a flash. Change things up with a griddle option, perfect for cooking breakfast favorites for your family. If you're trying to build a kitchen that's as beautiful as it is functional, the color of your cooktop also matters. Stainless steel is classic and will easily match the rest of the items in your kitchen, but brands offer other shades including black and white if you want your cooking surface to blend into an island or kitchen counters.
