Heats up very quick. It does have a buzzing sound when it’s on high but nothing annoying. Since you don’t have any heat besides the bottom of the cookware, you do not get any burn mark on any pan.
When we bought appliances in 1993, we purchased GE and they are still working, However, we remodeled our kitchen and decided to purchased GE Profile appliances because they are so reliable!!!
We got our first induction cooktop in 2011 and LOVED it. It was a GE, as well. We had to replace our oven which is the only reason we decided to replace the cooktop at the same time. This new GE cooktop is not nearly as wonderful as the old one. The burners are smaller and the 2 burners on the left are physically much closer together. It means you can't have a 3 or 4 quart pot on one of those burners and a mid sized skillet or dutch oven on the other burner, even if the bottom of the skillet or dutch oven is the right diameter for these burners. The sides of the skillet or dutch oven push up against the side of the 3 or 4 quart pot. This effectively means it is rare that one can use more than 2 burners at any given time. Also, if I adjust the timer, it will frequently turn off any burner that is on. And the timer alert is so low you can't hear it unless you are right next to it. We have been unable to find any menu settings to adjust the timer sound. We follow the directions that should bring up a menu setting but nothing happens.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am so impressed with this cooktop. It is so quick and efficient. It will pay for itself quickly. The flat surface makes cleanup quick and keeps things hygienic.
I always love induction cooktop, especially GE! I had one old model for 5 years and had no problems until I sold the house and moved. I’m happy with this new model so far. It’s smart, easy to use and I like the feature of connecting 2 burners as one big one.
