More from this brandAll Empava cooktopsOverview
The Empava 30 inch is a built-in electric induction cooktop with a smooth glass surface, 9 power levels plus a boost setting, and Bridge-SYNC burner linking for large pots and griddles. It requires induction-compatible cookware and permanent hardwired installation.
Induction cooktops only work with cookware that a magnet sticks to, so the pan sensor here is a limitation as much as a feature: cast iron and most stainless steel work, aluminum and copper without a magnetic base do not. Bridge-SYNC stands out for anyone who cooks with griddles or oval roasters spanning two burners, since it lets both zones read as one surface.
- Smooth glass induction surface
- Bridge-SYNC dual-burner linking
- Slider touch controls with timer
- Child lock and pause function
Who it's for
Cooks replacing a gas or radiant cooktop who already own or are willing to buy induction-ready cookware, and who want a built-in, hardwired unit rather than a plug-in portable one. Not a fit for renters or anyone wanting a simple swap-in appliance, since hardwiring means an electrician.
Pros and cons
- Bridge-SYNC links two burners for griddles and large pots
- 9 power levels plus a boost setting for fast heat-up
- Child lock and pause function for kitchen safety
- Requires induction-compatible cookware
- Hardwired installation, not a plug-in unit
- Only one review on record so far
Performance notes
Induction heats the pan directly through a magnetic field rather than heating the glass surface first, so pots respond faster to temperature changes than on a standard electric coil or radiant top. The 9 power levels plus boost give a range from a low simmer to a fast heat-up, and the pause function lets a pot hold without losing the current setting.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Empava 30 inch cooktop work with any pots and pans?
No. It uses a smart pan sensor that only activates for induction-compatible cookware, meaning the pan base needs to be magnetic, which most cast iron and many stainless steel pieces are.
Can this cooktop be plugged into a standard outlet?
No, it is a hardwired kitchen appliance meant for built-in installation, not a plug-in unit.
What does Bridge-SYNC do?
It links two adjacent burners so they operate as one larger cooking zone, useful for griddles, fish poachers, or oval roasters that do not fit a single burner.
