Enjoy cooking on this, its been great. Only been installed for 4 months and the corners of the cooktop have chipped since it is made of glass. I am not hard on my appliances at all, was really disappointed on how there is no trim kit for around the glass cooktop. Also it is very touchy to water, etc. if boiling water and it splashes on the cook top, it can cause it to turn off, happens more than id like it to.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello there.
It is very nice to hear that you can enjoy making a meal on your new cooktop. When it comes to induction cooking, certain things can be different to a normal cooktop such as boiling water and spillovers. We're happy to provide some further details.
First we would like to thank you for sharing your experience, this is reviewed by our product teams so that we can learn where improvements can be made in the future. Your induction cooktop will turn off when spill happen because at high and medium high settings, boil overs can cause smoking, and greasy spillovers may cause fire. Your safety is our first priority. We do see that you have recently spoken with one of our agents regarding the chip in your cooktop. Please feel welcome to reach back out if you have any further questions.
Thank you for making Café Appliances a part of your home. -Haley@Café

Please respond to the email at your earliest convenience. We are looking forward to connecting with you. - Adrian@Cafe
Our cookware is supposedly all compatible with induction cooktops, but the burners only recognize about half of them. And they’re all the same line and same maker!! It’s super frustrating to pay this much for something and only be able to use half of it. Also it takes AGES for a pot of water to come to a boil.

Hello,
Induction can be a fantastic addition to any kitchen, but it can be frustrating when it doesn’t work like you expect. Induction uses magnets to heat cookware directly, so to be compatible with induction your cookware simply needs to be magnetic. We recommend taking a look at the article below for things you can check when your burners aren’t working as well as they should.
If none of that helps, and if you haven’t already, we recommend taking advantage of your warranty and scheduling an appointment with our factory service team by calling 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737) Monday – Friday: 7 a.m. – 10 p.m. ET and Sunday: 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. ET, or by visiting https://www.geappliances.com/ge/service-and-support/service.htm and we’re confident that one of our certified technicians will be able to resolve these issues. Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback and please know that we are here should you need any assistance from us in the future. Best regards. -MichaelB@Café

Greetings! We appreciate you providing us with your valuable feedback. We are happy to hear that you are loving your electric cooktop. This is such a beautiful model with many great cooking features. Thank you for choosing Cafe Appliances for your home. We hope you enjoy your new cooktop for many years to come! - Adrian@Cafe
I gave it 4 stars rather than 5 because there are brown spots that are showing up under a few units that can not be cleaned with cooktop cleaner. I have a feeling it is from hot spots on pans that is causing the issue. If the glass was black rather than the gray I dont think it would show up as much
This is very easy to use. It heats up, and cools down super fast. I have had absolutely no issues with using this. It is also super easy to clean, and keep clean.
