We also love this cooktop because it offers a practical combination of performance and easy maintenance for everyday use. The four gas burners provide consistent cooking power for a variety of meals, while the gas-on-glass surface gives the kitchen a sleek look and makes cleanup simple. Additionally, the built-in downdraft exhaust helps remove smoke and steam efficiently, adding convenience while cooking. These features make it a versatile option for a wide range of cooking needs.
This product continues the standard of a great kitchen appliance. Our previous GE profile gas cooktop lasted 20 years, and this replacement upholds the excellence GE provides. The controls, burners and ventilation are excellent. The new design of flat tempered glass with cast iron seasoned grille is elegant and very robustly functional.

We are excited that you are enjoying this beautiful cooktop and the new design with the grates and glass ceramic. This cooktop also includes dishwasher-safe grates and knobs to help with the quick clean up of this appliance. We hope this cooktop serves you well for many years to come.
This was an installation nightmare. The brackets from GI did not match. I had to hire a master plumber to insure the fit. He was here for 8 hours and it cost me more than expected to fix the mismatched brackets and insure there were no gas leaks.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We are sorry to hear of your installation experience with this cooktop. It is always advised to have a gas installer present when installing gas products, as it is important that your appliance is not leaking gas and is installed in accordance with local gas codes. We are however confident that this cooktop will serve you for many years to come.
It's hard to find a replacement for a gas downdraft cooktop, but this one is great! Burners are stronger than previous cooktop (not GE). Downdraft works much better, doesn't pull flames from burners. The burners are set higher above the surface than previous one. Easier to clean around igniters. Glass surface is nice, but hard to clean around the knobs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the prior GE profile cooktop with downdraft. GE said it will align and fit as my old one. This is false. The installers GE sent were clueless as to how to assemble the fan unit and the new model will not align to your existing venting in your kitchen island. The previous model had a round exhaust opening the new model has a rectangular open and the openings are not located in the same orientation. I had to custom fabricate venting to get the air to the outside.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’d like to provide clarification on cooktop installation. The specific installation requirements can vary depending on the model, and we recommend ensuring your cooktop follows the installation instructions described in the manual; those instructions start on page 15 and the manual is linked here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--nl93nlT_--/e4kqgirzsp2fkn4bseya.pdf
While our Fit Guarantee covers the existing countertop cutout, it does not cover cooktop venting requirements. We have more information about the Fit Guarantee at this link: https://products.geappliances.com/appliance/gea-support-search-content?contentId=19629. After reviewing our system, we see you have also discussed this situation and a solution with a member of our team. If you need further assistance, we recommend continuing to work with that team member.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I installed it myself as a homeowner and would give it five stars except that the holes for the four screws for the two under stove top brackets were stripped so all four screws would spend but would not come out. They just kept spinning in place. I finally got them out by forcing a thin metal putty knife under the screw heads as I spun the screws with my drill. Also, I had to use acetone to remove the residue left by the warning label that said not to lift the stove top by the vent hole. I did have an installer hook up the gas line. It looks great and is a joy to use.
