If 4 cooking zones isn't enough for you, a 5-pit induction cooktop is something for you. This way, you have access to 5 cooking zones and you have just enough space for that extra pan. Handy, if you want to cook many different vegetables at the same time or prepare a meal for the next evening. These cooktops often have a large cooking zone, so you can also put a high-sided skillet or fish pan on it. If you want even more flexibility, opt for a cooktop with flexible cooking zones. The cooktop only heats the part that your pan is on.
