I generally like the design but I find the knob area is somewhat difficult to clean. I think in the future this area could be designed better for easier cleaning.
Pros: Performance, easy to use, Design, Innovative

Good looking cooktop with tight arrangement of burners

The stainless finish and the low profile knobs look great. Surfaces clean fairly easily. The center burner is actually 2 concentric burners that you ignite sequentially (auto-spark): the inner burner is for low simmering and ignites first, the outer is for high-heat and ignites second. Actually using all the burners at once would require small pots, but using a few at a time is reasonable. The hot surface indicator remains on for some time after burners are extinguished. Grates lift off easily for cleaning, but the rough finish tends to catch lint and paper towel fibers. Grates are intended to sit on cooktop only one way, which is not immediately obvious. Overall a nice looking, functional addition to the kitchen.
Pros: Design, easy to use, Convenient Features
Cons: surface finish on grates could be smoother, 5 burners are inevitably tight on a 30" cooktop

We just got this in December, but I love it so far. Big change in btus from our old one. Like having three different sized burners. Cleans up easily.

This is a great cooking top but the stainless steel is not the easiest to clean. Because of the finish you just can't wipe it up. Always streaky. Love cooking on it though.
