Explore AjMadison’s wide range of gas cooktops, stove tops, and rangetops, each one designed to elevate your culinary experience and fit seamlessly into your kitchen. Our selection includes models with sizes to fit any countertop cutout, from 12-in. modules with one or two burners to 60-in. rangetops with professional-grade performance features. We even carry one of the largest, most affordable assortment of brands from budget to luxury, including Bosch, GE, KitchenAid, and Wolf cooktops!
The designs of gas cooktops are evolving year after year to enhance their versatility and usage methods, enabling novice cooks to create restaurant-quality meals at home. Many high-end units now come with at least one dual or triple ring power burner for superior heat coverage underneath your cookware that eliminates warm spots. Select brands like Thermador have revolutionized the design of the single ring burner, integrating star-shaped patterns that cycle between the outer rim and center of your pans. You can even accessorize your gas cooktop to accommodate special food types or pans. Griddle, wok ring, and French top attachments are just a few of methods you can use to diversify the menu at your next dinner party! Sealed burners – some crafted in durable brass for high heat tolerance – work in tandem with dishwasher-safe, continuous cast iron grates to prevent spills and protect internal components from damage no matter what cooking method you prefer. Alternatively, open burner gas cooktops can let seasoned chefs quickly achieve powerful heating and make precise adjustments with a visible flame.
Modularity is becoming increasingly popular when creating designer kitchens, with brands like Miele, Gaggenau, and JennAir allowing you to mix and match fuel types for the ultimate kitchen combination! Your custom cooktop can include a teppanyaki or even deep fryer modules to tackle any cuisine. Downdraft range hood modules can be interspersed with your cooking appliances for heat control, or you can get your hands on a full-size JennAir downdraft gas cooktop. JennAir invented downdraft ventilation, so it’s only logical they were the first to craft a gas cooktop with downdraft capabilities.
Our available gas cooktops are built to accommodate every kind of lifestyle and cooking method consumers indulge in. ADA-compliant designs improve accessibility, while STAR-K certification lets you use these appliances without interacting with electrical interfaces. Smart cooktops with built-in Wi-Fi can be controlled from your smartphone, allowing you to adjust their settings from anywhere in your home. Select models even come with Bluetooth connectivity, allowing them to synchronize with compatible over the range microwaves or range hoods and activate their fans automatically.

Do chefs prefer gas or electric cooktops?
Professional chefs tend to favor the traditional cooking style of using gas in commercial kitchens. The instant, precise heat adjustment that gas cooktops provide allows you to seamlessly transition between boiling and simmering for multi-course meal preparation. However, many pros are starting to favor electric cooktops for kitchens, particularly induction, because their power and speed are becoming comparable to gas with modern innovations.
What is the life expectancy of a gas cooktop?
Most gas cooktops can last up to 15 years if they are used properly, are made with high-quality materials by a reputable brand, and have maintenance performed regularly. Make sure to regularly wipe down burners and igniters so there are no obstructions which can cause gas to leak into your kitchen.
What are some of the disadvantages of using a gas cooktop?
Gas produces more ambient heat than its electric and induction counterparts, which warms up kitchens faster during extended cooking sessions and requires you to run your range hood at higher extraction speeds. Gas cooktops also require a gas line, which can be expensive to install if they don’t already exist in your kitchen setup and may also require professional installation. A major concern with gas is safety, as it can leak out of a cooktop if damaged, so always have a working carbon monoxide detector in your home if you buy one.
