Surface sucks

I really dislike this appliance. Any small splatter requires extensive cleaning. I would throw it in a dumpster if another surface was available that was easily cleanable. Kirk Leopard

BURNERS SEEM HARD TO REGULATE TEMPERATURE. WHEN TURNING THE BURNERS TO LOW THEY SEEM TO HOT

We are happy to help you with your burners seeming too hot. If you have oversized pans, they will trap heat between the bottom of the pan and the cooktop. This will transfer a lot of heat to the cooktop. Your pans should not hang over more than one inch on each side of any surface burner. For example, on an 8" burner the maximum pan size should not exceed 10". On 6" burners, the pans should not be larger than 8".
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Looks really slick and modern but functional and was easy to install with plenty of electrical cord, Burners got hot quick and controls are large and functional and the surface is really nice looking.
Cooktop was rotated 1/8 inch relative to housing which made it difficult to position squarely on countertop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My cooktop looks lovely but I haven't used it het so I don't know how it cooks.

Thank you for your review. This model features a Power Boil Dual-Ring Element, allowing you to use different pan sizes on this flexible 2,700-watt element. It also includes a Keep Warm setting. A fully functional 6" element has the power to boil water and can keep food warm thanks to its lowest heat setting. We are confident your unit will serve you well for many years to come.
