The NIT5660UC is a 36 inch 500 Series induction cooktop without connectivity, on a 37 inch black ceramic glass top. A characteristic of induction that owners either love or complain about is the noise: a light multi-ply pan on a high setting buzzes audibly because the magnetic field is flexing the layers of the pan base against each other. It is the pan, not the cooktop, and a heavier single-material pan on the same zone is silent.
