Hello everyone! I recently bought an induction cooktop to replace a gas one, but when attempting the installation, I realized it’s about 1 cm larger than the existing cutout in my countertop. Unfortunately, returning the induction cooktop is not an option at this point, and I’d really like to avoid cutting the countertop, it would require dismantling all the cabinets, plus I’m worried about the dust and mess it would create. However, if I can’t find another solution, I might have to go that route.

Has anyone dealt with this issue before? Are there any adapters or other options available? I’ve seen some stainless steel adapters, but they seem to be made for the opposite problem.

Thanks in advance for any advice!
