How we compiled this
Numeric specs use US units: power in watts (W), temperature in degrees Fahrenheit (F), cooktop/burner surface diameter and unit dimensions in inches, weight in pounds (lb), MSRP in USD. Power-level and temperature-step counts are integer counts. Any spec a manufacturer does not publish is set to null rather than guessed; single-burner countertop units only (built-in drop-in cooktops are out of scope). Three candidate products were dropped: (1) Cuisinart ICT-60 — confirmed two-burner/double cooktop, out of scope; (2) iHome iIC1801 — no manufacturer page, retailer page, or any reliable primary source found after multiple searches; (3) Instant Dual Induction Cooktop (brand: Instant) — no primary source or product page found; Instant Brands does not appear to make a standalone induction cooktop under this name. The NuWave Pro Chef candidate (slug nuwave-pro-chef-nw30602) was included using actual NuWave Pro Chef model 30702 specifications, as model 30602 is a two-burner unit (out of scope); the candidate description appears to conflate the Pro Chef name with the wrong model number.
