Q: I am considering a new cooktop and have looked for one with coils but cannot find one. I like the glasstop models but my wife is concerned it will break. Have the coil versions been discontinued and is the glasstop surface cooktops durable?

A: Do not do it. Never with BEST BUY. It took 4 months to be delivered. It will require a LICENSED and BONDED Electrician to install. The BEST BUY installers were neither. They could not even figure out how to pull the electrical breaker to the COOK TOP that they were to replace. They took my cash for the install, that never happened, and have not felt any urgency to return it to me. If you let BEST BUY install it, and the TECHS are not LICENSED and BONDED, it may invalidate your home owners insurance. Go to a reputable store. Verify the intallers credentials BEFORE making any purchase. NEVER USE BEST BUY

Q: what is the power in watt for each burner for model JP3036SLSS ( GE - 36" Built-In Electric Cooktop - Stainless steel)?

A: Thank you for connecting with us! The front left element is 1500W, the left rear element is a 120W Warming Zone. Additionally, the front right element is 2500W with Power Boil, while the right rear element is 1200W. Lastly, the center heating element is 2700W. We hope this helps and if you have any additional questions, please reach out to us. Kind regards – Matthew@GEA

Q: How hot should the "warmer" burner on the JP3036SLSS get when turned on "high?" The four regular burners function properly, but the 5th "warmer" burner seems to be too cool. What temp should the "warmer" burner be when on high? Thank you

A: Hello EJones, Thank you for reaching out. With electric cooktop burners, there is not a temperature range associated with each burner. The burner cycles on and off more or less frequently depending on the setting. On high, it cycles off much less than on low. Other factors that make it difficult to provide a temperature range include: the size of the pan, the food or liquid being cooked, the material of the pan, etc. The warmer burner is meant to provide low heat to foods that are already done and to keep them above a temperature of 140 F. We hope this information helps. Mike@GEA

Q: Do you have to use the top and bottom stainless steel pieces? I want the stainless steel knobs, but not something else to have to clean around on the top and bottom.

A: We are replacing the glass cooktop because of chips on the edges. We will definitely install with the metal strips because that is what tends to break. Of course it is your choice, i thought my experience might help… I

Q: What are the sizes of the front left and front right burners?

A: The front left burner is 7" in diameter and the right front is 8" in diameter.

    36" cooktop

    I bought a flat top just like this and lasted almost 13 years. Im not so crazy about the knobs cause they are so large but less likely to turn on accidentally vs the flat top. Most of my dissatisfaction came from.the time it took for it to be delivered. It not being delivered on the day it waa supposed to be delivered and no one calling me to say they couldnt make it.

    Beautiful, but hard to clean

    This cook top is sleek and adds elegance to a kitchen. Tons of compliments on it. Very satisfied with its cooking ability. Boiling is slow, but once you get the hang of transferring from electric coil or gas flame to using a ceramic cook top, cooking is a breeze. I rate it strong in these areas. What I don't like: this one is very difficult to clean. It is not as responsive to cook top cleaners as one would hope. And getting rid of cook top cleaner polish smears takes forever and a day. It is not as easy to buff clean as the instructions imply. That said, it is still easier than cleaning oven pans on a gas or electric coil stove. You will need a scratch pad made for glass cook tops and you will need the scraper made for cook tops. Never let old spills and smears stay on too long. And wipe off as many spills with damp paper towel and dry BEFORE applying polish cleaner. Knobs are very hard to get back shiny. Also, cook top will scratch easily---small annoying marks that are not seen until bright light illuminates, but still. I enjoy it and would not go back to electric coil. I would go to gas, so if you can get one in gas, that is what I would recommend. This one so far, is as good as any electric on the market today. I have only had it in use about 8 months, so bear that in mind. I can not yet comment on durability. If you were to purchase this one, I recommend getting the stainless steel trim. Would be even more beautiful. Mine is black in an all-white kitchen and blends nicely. Just the right size---5 burners is really all you need.

    Excellent Cooktop!

    This cooktop is exactly what we were looking for in our new kitchen! Our builder was shocked that we could still fit a drawer below the cooktop because it is such a slim design. We love the arrangement of the burners and the size options they provide. We are able to cook multiple items at a time. We link it so much, we are ordering another for the new house we're building next year.
