Do not buy this cooktop. First of all, this is an induction cooktop, even though Best Buy does not have the correct name. Secondly, it just does not work properly. This is my 2nd GE induction cooktop because the first one (a different model) did not work either. I had a GE tech out to service this one, and his computer diagnostics came up with a service advisory... a known issue with the touch controls and radio frequency interference. He came out a 2nd time to install the GE recommended part and it did not fix this issue. Even with the new part, the touch controls still don't respond as intended. I'm done with GE induction cooktops and now I'm on to try a different brand.

STAY AWAY at all cost, worst cooktop I've ever purchased. I bought this in May 2024 and have had to have repairmen out to my house 3 times. I have currently been wiating over 2 months for GE to repair it a 3rd time!! Apparently regular 2.5ghz or 5 ghz signals interfere with it and render it useless, even though it will turn on and appear to be working. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE AND STAY AWAY! I thought GE Cafe was a good, trustworthy brand, until I purchased this lemon!
