Was tired of the glass top style and wanted to go back to what I grew up with. The coil type. Simple and easy to clean. Sometimes the original technology is still the best!
The stove top was to replace a 30 year old gas stove top. I had it professionally installed by a contractor. Completing the new wiring, capping the old gas line and installing the new electric top took less than 2 hours. Very pleased with operation, quality and appearance.
I need to replace my old jennair. Planning a remodel but needed a basic for the time being. For the price it was well worth it. It cooks great. The pans are not great to clean however. The on indicator light is very hard to see so I have left it on a few times. Overall it works for the price.
Installed yesterday, used 2x already. While some of the features are not to my standard (drip pans and coils rock a bit more than I would like), I am very happy with how it cooks/heats. I cook very regularly and in just 2 uses I have noticed a big difference from my previous glass top model. It heats evenly and does not overheat- boiling meant boiling and not boiling out of the pot the second I turned away. Also when I turned it from high to low so my food could simmer, it cooled down quickly enough that I still did not have a boil over. On my old glass top I would have had to move the pot to another spot because it did not cool quick enough and would keep everything at a raging boil. Looking forward to more cooking and trying out my wok (terrible time cooking with the wok on my glass top). So 4 stars for the cooking and (-1) for the wobbly burners (I should mention there was no major concern with the wobbly once there was a pot on it). If you want great cooking I think this is a good model for a great price. If you are concerned about wobbly, I’d still suggest a coil burner that’s on the more expensive range and might have less wobbly. Oh, install was super easy too so we saved money on that as well. Happy cooking everyone!!
We just purchased this cooktop. After checking out other units, we setteled on this one. Other units were too flimsy. This one is solid, fit just right. Can not think of any negatives.
