Additional Information

The Whirlpool cooktop main top (part number W11051487) provides the stainless steel surface that supports the burners and cookware on your cooktop. Over time, the main top can become scratched, dented, or discolored from heavy use. Replacing it restores both the appearance and function of your appliance.

If the cooktop surface is warped, burners may not sit evenly, causing cookware to tilt or heat unevenly. A damaged top can also make cleaning more difficult. Replacing the main top corrects these issues and keeps your cooktop operating as intended. Always unplug the cooktop and shut off the gas supply before beginning the repair. Wear work gloves to protect your hands while handling metal components.
