The Maytag® MCIT8036SB induction cooktop is designed for home cooks who want commercial‑style performance with everyday simplicity. This 36-inch wide, five-element cooktop offers a sleek black glass surface that instantly modernizes your kitchen while giving you the precision and responsiveness of induction cooking. At the heart of this model is its powerful Power Boost feature, which delivers maximum heat to bring water to a boil up to twice as fast than traditional electric cooktops, helping you get pasta, soups, and weeknight meals started in a fraction of the time. Equally impressive is the XL Cooking Zone, an oversized induction element that evenly heats your largest pots, pans, and griddles, or lets you mix and match two smaller pans side by side so you can sear, sauté, and simmer multiple dishes at once without crowding. To take the guesswork out of everyday recipes, the cooktop includes intuitive No Guess Presets such as boil, sauté, and simmer, allowing you to tap a preset and let the cooktop automatically dial in the ideal power level for consistent, repeatable results—perfect for delicate sauces or one‑pan meals. Underneath it all, Temp Cook™ Induction Technology helps maintain steady, precise temperatures by automatically adjusting the heat, so pancakes brown evenly, grilled cheese melts perfectly, and sauces stay at a gentle simmer instead of scorching. Because it’s induction, the surface around your cookware stays cooler and cools down quickly after cooking, making cleanup as simple as a quick wipe and adding an extra layer of safety in busy kitchens. With a generous 36-inch width, this cooktop offers ample room to spread out your cookware, while the efficient induction elements deliver strong, focused power exactly where you need it. Smart compatibility on select connected features lets you monitor and control key functions from your device, and a 10-year limited parts warranty on the elements and ceramic top underscores Maytag® durability. Whether you’re upgrading a family kitchen or outfitting a serious home chef’s space, the MCIT8036SB brings together speed, control, and convenience in a premium, built‑in cooktop that’s made to work hard meal after meal.
• Temp Cook™ Induction Technology – automatically adjusts and regulates heat to maintain a steady temperature so foods like pancakes or grilled cheese cook evenly without burning.
• Power Boost – delivers maximum power to the element so you can bring water to a boil up to 2x faster than traditional electric cooktops, ideal for pasta, blanching and rapid heating.

• Tested Tough construction – cooktop is subjected to rigorous testing for glass thermal strength, temperature regulation and lifespan to deliver consistent performance for years.
• 5‑element induction layout – includes one 11" Temp Cook™ element, two 7.5" bridge elements and two round elements (8" and 6") to handle everything from small saucepans to large skillets.
• Bridge elements / XL flex zone – left‑side bridge elements can be linked to create a larger heating area, perfect for griddles, grill pans or long roasting pans.
• Automatic pan detection – senses when induction‑compatible cookware is present and only activates the element when a pan is detected, improving safety and efficiency.
• Automatic pan size adjustment – adjusts the active heating area to match the size of the cookware base, helping ensure even heating and reducing wasted energy.
• Keep Warm setting – maintains low, steady heat to keep dishes warm until serving without overcooking.
• Melt function – provides gentle, precise low heat for melting chocolate, butter or delicate sauces without scorching.
