    Manufacturers defect??

    While the stove top operates well, it’s been very difficult to get a hold of the appropriate people to determine if there’s a defect in the printing on the stovetop. I’ve had it replaced 3 separate times and all batches from the Best Buy warehouse arrive where you can barely make out the indicator writing. All the installers agree it appears to be a defect and will notify the warehouse to bring a new stovetop that’s not affected, but sadly, that information appears to never get to the right person. I’ve called endlessly and been on hold for hours and people say they put in the notes to check with Kitchenaid to see if this is a defect, but no one follows through. I’m very disappointed in the customer service so far, with Best Buy and the follow up that’s necessary to figure out what’s wrong with this stove top. The lettering shows to be BLACK in all online photos, but when the product shows up here, it appears to be in silver printed on stainless so it is impossible to read unless from a diagonal viewing. Pictures posted below.

    KitchenAid 30" Cooktop

    Makes your remodel look fantastic! Control knobs feel very good and solid and the lights give the cooktop a great look. The option of flame types for burners is also great.
