- Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I love my new range.
My old range had 4 burners, this one has 5. All of the burners heat at whatever temperature that you set it at. It is very easy to clean, unlike the old one that i had. Also, the large burners are nice to have.

36” KitchenAid electric cooktop
We really like our new KitchenAid cooktop that replaced a 24 year old KitchenAid cooktop that worked fine but we wanted a new one as part of the kitchen remodel. One problem. The countertop cut out instructions provided by KitchenAid were confusing and the installer thought the cut out was wrong but in the end he was able to install our new cooktop. There were a few sleepless nights until it was all worked out.
