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.

I would give zero if that was a choice. This is an extremely unsafe appliance. Note that i always go out of my way to buy GE appliances so this was a huge disappointment one of the burners was not working from the beginning , i did not bother to call about it as i was busy . Only two of the burners are any use for cooking , the other three are only for warming . After 1 and half month of use (yes that's right , just 1.5months of use ) the two main burners stopped working. After three service appointments , the two burners worked, by evening one of it stopped working again and there was a smoke coming out . I called again , after two service appointments (3 weeks) the tech finally opened the appliances and the wire was burnt inside the sealed metal housing , it was in contact with the metal housing and completely burnt out. Note that this was not burnt , the first time it was opened and repaired. Is it a defective design? Why would it burn inside, same day after a service appointment? I repeatedly called and said it is a safety concern, but they don't care.

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.
