36" Bosch Benchmark 5 Burners Gas Cooktop in Stainless steel - NGMP659UC

Eliminate the guesswork of cooking with FlameSelect


Introducing FlameSelect® on Bosch cooktops, an entirely new and better way to cook with gas. 9 preset power levels let you easily adjust flame level for more precise, controlled heating. Whether you’re rapidly bringing water to an intense boil or delicately melting chocolate, the numbered flame levels deliver the exact temperature every time. There’s no more hot or cold spots, just precision heating for perfect results.
Simmer delicate sauces with the OptiSim Burner


The OptiSim burner design is wider and thicker which diffuses heat evenly for better flame control when simmering delicate sauces.

Boil water quickly with a Dual-Flame Power Burner
The dual flame ring power burner has two rings for low and high flame settings so you can go from simmer to sear with ease. Heat level 1-3 uses the inner ring, and 4-9 uses both rings for maximum heat.

Dishwasher-safe grates
A special enameling process allows the grates to be washed directly in the dishwasher instead of by hand for easier clean up.
Slide your pans from burner to burner
The full-width continuous cast iron grate design makes sliding heavy pots easier around the cooking surface.
