I chose this cook top because it is easy to clean, has good burner arrangement, places the control knobs is a most convenient position, and the grills form a flat surface to ease moving pots from one burner to another.
This replaced a 30 year old gas cooktop. The controls are much smoother and easy to adjust compared to the old one. Like the heavy grates too, although they are not perfectly flat.
Like the high power burner in the front, but wish the other 3 were the same BTU rating so that the heat would correspond to the dial setting on all 3. But none of the manufacturers seem to make that now.
This stove has so many nice features. The full grill is awesome, making it easy to slide a pot from one burner to another. It also means that big pots are not perched precariously on a single burner. I also love the four different burner sizes, from very small to very big, making it possible to use all sizes of pots and have them heat evenly. And the big burner really puts out heat and will boil a big pot of water quickly. I like the metal knobs, and I also like the easy clean up with the sealed burners. All in all, a great stove.
