Cooktop installed 3 weeks ago. We rarely eat out so I’ve given it a good workout already. My All-Clad and cast iron cookware all work well. Bought a nonstick griddle for the linked burner to replace a round anodized griddle. Pancakes browned unevenly despite a lengthy preheat but dang I cooked a bunch of them fast. Large burner is so powerful, it heats my 10” cast iron skillet in a couple of minutes on medium heat and quesadillas are done in less than 5 minutes. Looking forward to adding a pressure canner, it was a big motivation for the change and for buying this model. Very little learning curve compared to electric glass cooktop. Waiting for the Bluetooth skillet to arrive, it sounds ridiculous but will definitely try a few recipes for fun. Can’t speak to longevity yet. Minus 1 star for the solid black surface that shows every splash, drop and crumb. Wiping with a dishcloth leaves streaks. You really do have to use glass cooktop cleaner and a paper towel with maybe a spray of vinegar at the end to make it perfect. I’m not at all picky so to me it’s an annoyance. For others it will be a huge problem. This was a bit of a splurge for me after 5-6 years of thinking about it, and so far I’m very happy with the purchase.
Great product. Installed this morning and made breakfast right away. Worked beautifully

Easily became a part of our cooking experience. We moved from Electric to Radiant and are sad about our existing cookware that doesn’t work anymore :(, However, watching water boil in no time is well worth the switch. It’s early days but this is looking promising. Let’s see how long this one lasts.
We have only had our induction stove top for 3 days but love it! It was easy to install, works great and is very good looking. It heats amazingly fast but also the burner is completely cool within seconds of turning it off. We purchased all new cookware that is induction compatible and are very happy we did so.
This cooktop is “tops.” Looks beautiful and performs flawlessly. Especially love the instant response, equal to or better than gas. Nothing better than induction!
