[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the overall size, the burner options and how quickly it heats. I also found that I much prefer the knobs to the complete flat-top, all electronic model. I wish I could have gotten this model with a "bridge" for a griddle, but that is really the only "complaint" I have, which is not a major one. I still believe that all glass cooktops generally are difficult because of cleaning; however, that is true for ALL brands and configurations and there are no other options for those of us who do not have access to gas. I have purchased suggested cleaners, which helps, but I still wish there was a simpler way to keep them clean and beautiful.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have answered your review about a month ago and the review is the same as then. I was hoping to hear a response from you but since I am receiving another request for a review, I assume my letter was put in the round file. Extremely dissatisfied with your stove top. Top shows smear marks when I clean, can't get marks off the top, even with the products I ordered from you. knobs should be on the right side, not the middle, no markings on the top to show where the burners are, when a burner is shut off, there should be a "hot" mark near the burner, NOT at the bottom of the stove top. As I said before this design was certainly not a design of a woman. No woman would approve this, especially after she cooked on it one time. The stove top I had 14 years ago was a dream. Yes it was a kitchenAid and I thought, surely, after all these years, there would be a lot of improvements. I could wipe the top and it was clean and beautiful. This top must be made out of a different product or I was sold a defected one. How many ways can I say, this product is awful and should not be on the market. I would appreciate an answer to my last review, as well as this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The cooktop is awesome’ the size is perfect and the sleek look fits so well in our home. It’s awesome! We love it for its 5 burners.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stove was in my new construction home. It looks great and heats well but is impossible to keep clean. I purchased the recommended cleaning kit but it still doesn't look clean and this is after only a few uses and consistently cleaning while using; there hasn't even been major spills.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Needed a cooktop that could comfortably have two large 12-inch pans going at the same time, without bumping into another pan. This model was pretty much the only one I could find like that anywhere. I'm very happy with the intelligent design of the location of the elements. Other nice touches are the attractive etched grid design on the surface of the cooktop, the thickness of the glass, and the foam strips provided in the box for installation on an uneven counter surface. Also like the stainless-steel knobs though I wish they were removeable for cleaning. As for cleaning, I've read some negative reviews saying that it is hard to clean; I haven't found that it is any harder or easier than other electric cooktops I've used. Overall, completely satisfied.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this cooktop in Nov. The large burner heats up fast. My only issues is that it s hard to remove certain stains from the burner.
