This is a replacement for the electric 4 element version which came with the house we purchased. JennAir did some nice modifications to this newer model. The downdraft now has a plastic catch tray closer to the top which makes it less likely to rust and easier to clean when you spill something down the vent opening. The grease filter is also smaller making it easier to clean. It would be nice if the exhaust fan below the unit had the option to configure the discharge on either side vs. just the left side. This would give you more flexibility for installation. The burners work great and give you a wide variety of highly controllable heat. It would also have been nice if the vent fan was made to have infinite speeds like the old model it replaced instead of three dedicated speeds. The only true negatives I have are the burner knobs were slightly misaligned upon removing the unit from the shipping packaging. I was able to get them almost perfect but had to push on them quite hard to move the valve bodies within the unit to get them to align with the mounting collars. The other issue was as others have stated, the gasket for sealing it to the counter top didn't come in the packaging and we had to order it from JennAir. It took a week and a half to get the seal. JennAir representatives were very nice and helpful but this issue should have been corrected by now and the gasket should have been expedited to us.

Gas Cooktop is awesome only the Grill doesn't fit right. If Grill fit right I would recommend it. Flame is good ignition is good

This cooktop replaced the same cooktop in stainless I'd used for 15 years. I loved the old one but had worn it out. The black surface is very cool looking and easier to clean. Copper rings around the base of each burner look very rich. The burners seem to offer a wider range of heat levels and better control than the older model - operating at even lower temperatures. It is perfect for folks who love to cook and cook a lot but can't accommodate or afford a big expensive professional stove.
