The KECC501GBL3 is a US-market KitchenAid cooktop. The one specification line recovered for the KECC501GBL3 describes it as a 30″ Ceramic-glass Electric Cooktop with Radiant Elements, and this page does not go beyond it. A capture of KitchenAid’s US product site from March 2000 records it. Whether it remained on sale after that is not something these sources settle, so no claim is made about it.
The string published here is KECC501GBL3, exactly as KitchenAid printed it. The bare KECC501GBL was not itself seen in any source used for this page, so it is not offered here as a model number in its own right. By now a KECC501GBL3 is an old machine, and the switches, the element or burner connections and the control knobs carry most of the wear. Nothing in the sources settles whether the KECC501GBL3 is still made, so availability for it is looked up before a price is given rather than assumed.
