Dacor - 36 in. Wide 5 Burner Contemporary Built-In Gas Cooktop with with SimmerSear, Liquid Propane Convertible - Graphite Steel

Looks great!! Love how it sits down in my counter and doesn't sit high.

Absolutely hate it and very upset. I had a Dacor range for 20+ years and it was amazing. Cooked perfectly, nice powerful burners, sleek design and super easy to clean. Looked as good as new and cooking hundreds of meals. Moved to a new house and immediately ordered the Dacor cooktop because I felt so loyal to the brand. Had to have my granite cut larger to fit the new cooktop. The item is not what is pictured online. The pictures give the appearance of a brushed stainless surface that is easy to clean. The unit is as shiny as a mirror. It takes longer to clean and polish the unit than it doesn’t to cook the meal. We don’t even want to use the cooktop now because cleanup is such a project. I would never wish this on my worst enemies. I am so upset because I can’t even put my old unit back in because the counter had to be cut for this unit. Also beware that the built in look comes at a price/ had to cut the whole drawer under the unit becasie the unit sits so low and the gas regulator connections hangs so low it will interfere with drawers. Lastly, and this is even more of Dacor’s smoke and mirror game- the beautiful gold burner covers/ they turn brown almost immediately. Cooked one meal and had to replace them with the black covers that also came with the unit. Now this may not be a big deal for some, but some people may want the unit specifically because it is gold- and they looked like trash after one meal and are unusable. My GE Cafe unit was a dream to clean up. My old Dacor was a dream to clean up. I’m sorry but Dacor flat out lied about this unit in the photos and the descriptions.

Very good looking Cooktop. It sits flush to the counter top making it look even better. The cooktop comes with Black porcelain and Brass burner caps. The brass burner and caps will change color after brief use so the brass caps can be used for show, while the porcelain caps can be used for cooking. The Smartthings app is not working so the one star is decreased.

Installed this stove top 2/5 and by 2/9 the left side began to show some discoloration and rough surface. It became a headache to clean and now it is easily stained. The middle burner and right side burners are okay, and still have the smooth surface. Reached out to Dacor warranty services and they responded with an email stating they won't cover the issue because its cosmetic damage. It seems like the coating for the stove top wasn't applied correctly to the left side, which is a bummer considering this is supposed to be a quality luxury brand. Besides that issue, its easy to use and has worked as its intended to. Be prepared to make space underneath for the gas line and overall size of the stove top, it will take up a drawer. Wouldn't recommend this stove top at this price point for the quality. Looks great, but only before use. Provided pictures for reference.

Don't be fooled by the brass burner tops. They are for decoration only. Do not think you can cook on them as they discolor on the first use. To replace one is $40-$65.00. Very poor to include them and not warn you ahead of time that they are useless and won't match the other appliances for very long. Per Decor: "It's normal for the brass caps to discolor. When you heat up the brass caps, the brass will patina. This is not a defect in our caps, it’s a natural element of brass. Our units are ship with both brass and porcelain caps. This does not mean that you cannot use them to cook, on the contrary, the brass holds heat better than porcelain. If you are concerned with the aesthetics of your unit, then you should use the porcelain caps for everyday cooking and the brass one for display."
