Dont Buy This
on February 3, 2012
Posted by: dimplzjs
I can not recommend this cook top. The knobs say they are removable, but I cant get them off. The grates are so high off the burner you have to cook everything on high and if you want to brown something, you have to put it on the power boiler. The boiler would be great, if it wasn't for the grate height. It takes longer to boil and cook then with my old electric. The griddle is cool for pancakes and french toast, but you can only get one batch of bacon done before the reservoir fills up with grease.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Do not recommend after owning it for one year

After just over a year, the igniter stopped working. As it turns out this has been made complicated by making that part inclusive with a whole circuit board, which makes what could have been a simple fix very expensive.
As to use of the unit. I cook most every day, so it has gotten consistent use but with meticulous care. The burner on the front left has low btu's so takes forever to heat. I generally have to use the big burner in the center if I really want to get things boiling in any reasonable time.
I would not recommend this cooktop to anyone who cooks regularly. It is just not up to the quality or the durability that I expected of a GE product. I wish I had gone with another brand.

Not enough BTU’s. Takes forever to boil water.
on October 24, 2017

The 36” gas cooktop takes 15 minutes plus to boil water in a tea kettle. The 1 small burner won’t boil water in same tea kettle at all as the flame is very small. The power burner doesn’t have the BTU’s I expected. The griddle didn’t get hot enough to crisp bacon. I am very disappointed.

love the cafe look which has a different style that a lot of others and were looking for a low BTU burner after having an older cooktop, this is great.
