Invisacook Countertops in Seattle

Invisacook is induction cooking that disappears into the countertop — you place a pot on the stone, the burner activates, the food cooks, then the burner turns off and the surface looks like solid stone again. AbsoluteGM has installed Invisacook in Seattle-area homes since the technology became available, integrated with our STONEEX fabrication system.

How Invisacook works

A standard induction coil mounts UNDER the stone countertop. When you place a magnetic-bottomed pan on the marked cooking zone, the coil heats the pan directly through the stone (induction does not heat the stone itself, just the pan). The countertop surface stays cool to the touch outside the immediate pan area. When you remove the pan, the cooking zone is invisible — just continuous stone.

What stones work with Invisacook

Porcelain and sintered stone are the recommended materials — they are dense, thermally conductive, and tested with the Invisacook system. Quartz and natural stones (granite, quartzite, marble) can work in some configurations but require specific Invisacook certification. AbsoluteGM walks you through compatibility during the design phase.

When Invisacook makes sense

Open-concept kitchens where the cooktop visually breaks the countertop continuity. Outdoor kitchens where you want a clean weatherproof surface. Galley kitchens where counter space is at a premium. Luxury homes where the cooking surface is part of the architectural design.

Frequently asked about Invisacook

How does Invisacook work?
An induction coil mounts under the countertop. Place a magnetic pan on the marked cooking zone, and the coil heats the pan through the stone. The stone surface stays cool outside the pan area.
What countertop materials work with Invisacook?
Porcelain and sintered stone (Dekton, Neolith, Lapitec) are recommended. Some quartz and natural stone configurations work but require specific certification. AbsoluteGM verifies compatibility during design.
How much does Invisacook cost?
The Invisacook system runs \$3,000-\$5,000 depending on number of zones and configuration. Add \$1,000-\$2,000 for installation including stone integration. Total: \$4,000-\$7,000.
Can Invisacook be retrofitted?
Generally no — retrofitting requires removing the existing countertop. Most Invisacook installs are part of a new kitchen build or full remodel.
Is Invisacook safe?
Yes. Induction cooking is one of the safest cooktop technologies — the surface only heats where the pan sits, and shuts off immediately when the pan is removed. Children-touch protection is built in.
Does Invisacook require special pots and pans?
Yes, induction-compatible cookware (any pan a magnet sticks to). Cast iron, stainless steel induction-rated pans, enameled iron all work.
