The cooktop of the FTQ352IW series incorporates multiple radiant elements, including a powerful 12-inch element for large pots and pans. The seamless design of the smooth ceramic glass surface not only adds elegance but also facilitates easy cleanup, as spills and splatters can be wiped away effortlessly.

Samsung has also integrated innovative smart technology into these ranges. The SmartThings app connectivity feature enables users to monitor and control the oven from their smartphones. Through the app, you can preheat the oven, set timers, or receive notifications when your dish is ready, giving you ultimate convenience in your cooking routine.

Safety is another priority with these models, featuring industry-standard safety measures such as a control lock that prevents accidental adjustments during cooking. Additionally, the ranges are designed with a self-cleaning mode, allowing for hassle-free maintenance.

In terms of design, the FTQ352IW series offers a sleek, modern aesthetic, available in various finishes to match your kitchen decor. The ceramic glass cooktop combined with the stainless-steel elements adds sophistication and a contemporary feel to any kitchen environment.
