I did not want to write a review until I'd lived with this cooktop for a while. Thought I could overlook it's issues. It's issues are design issues. The designers must not have been cooks. I tried to find a place to see one/test it before I bought it but I ended up just relying on peoples responses to a couple questions. I wanted to know the distances between front and back to know if two skillets/pans would be able to be centered over their respective burners (for even heat) on the same side of the cooktop at the same time. Guess the "responders" only boiled water and cooked one egg at a time in a small skillet. To have centered heat and more than one pan/skillet on the cooktop (one in front of the other) the skillets/pans/teapot cannot be more than 7" in diameter. Not at all reasonable for an even half way decent cook. I thought I could make it work and overlook the inconvenience of never being able to use all four burners at the same time with anything with a diameter larger than 7". I could not make stock in a pot and leave it to simmer and do much else at the same time. I ended up using an induction burner for more burner space - but it takes up counter space. Also the gas heat regulators are pitiful - lots of REALLY high heat and basically no real simmer. Need to use a couple diffusers for stocks and sauces. Why could they not use a full 24" (usual counter space depth- front to back) for the burners. A total waste of space. How does one talk to the engineers/designers of such a piece of ......... A lot of this is my problem because I didn't check it out - but I found that to be relatively impossible - no stores with samples, etc. no people I called knew their own product nor how to measure it. So now I live with it (and the induction burner). One day when I can afford to install an induction cooktop (and go through all the bother and cost of a new installation) I will do so. Just want to warn folks - it is not a cook's dream by ANY stretch of the imagination. It is maybe for a single person who just cooks one egg and boils water. See photos The pans/skillets on the burners are: small skillet on front burner 6 3/4" diameter (top) Larger skillet on back burner is 9.5" base and 11" top rim diameter Pot with handle is 6" diameter teapot is 8" You can center the small skillet but the larger one cannot be centered at the same time. In the second photo you can see the black tile in back - 3" of wasted space!!!

Looks great! The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because the largest burner is not where I would have liked it. It does make noise while it’s lit. Guess I’ll just have to adjust.
