Zline Cooktops & Rangetops

ZLINE Cooktops & Rangetops at Plesser's Appliances

ZLINE cooktops and rangetops, available at Plesser's Appliances, drop into a countertop or install above a cabinet run, freeing the oven to sit at working height elsewhere. Offered in gas and induction configurations across a range of widths.

Cooktop vs. Rangetop
A cooktop drops into a countertop cutout and sits shallow, preserving usable drawer or cabinet space below. A rangetop is a deeper, taller unit with professional control depth and typically higher output, installed above a cabinet run rather than into a counter. This determines the cabinetry design, so settle it before millwork.

Gas Configurations
Gas cooktops and rangetops use sealed burners with high-output options for searing and lower settings for simmering, with heavy cast iron grates supporting sliding cookware across the surface. Confirm burner count, output, and grate design for your width, and ask about simmer performance specifically.

Induction Options
Induction cooktops respond faster than gas, hold low settings without cycling, and wipe clean as a flat glass surface, but require magnetic cookware and substantial dedicated 240V service. Confirm zone layout and any power-sharing between zones, since that determines what you can run at full output simultaneously.

Rangetop Surface Configurations
Rangetops offer the deepest surface configuration choice, with griddle options in combination with burners on select widths, fixed at the factory. Because configuration cannot be changed later, this is an order-time decision. Confirm which combinations exist in your chosen width.

Cutout, Clearance, and Ventilation Planning
Cutout dimensions, countertop overhang, clearance to combustibles, and cabinet requirements below differ between cooktops and rangetops and between widths. Ventilation should be sized to surface output. Talk to the team at Plesser's Appliances about cutout specs, gas or electrical requirements, and hood sizing before the countertop is templated.
