    Excellent gas cooktop.

    We purchased this cook top to replace a hard-working 16 year-old Dacor. Years of heavy use had actually cooked the enamel paint off of the hottest burner. So, with heavy hearts we decided it had to be replaced...and after researching, we choose the Kitchen Aid stainless steel cook top for its ease of maintenance, powerful burners, and good reviews. I'm very glad we did. The Kitchen Aid's hottest burner is excellent - great for stir-fry or just getting a nice brown sear on meat. We use the smallest to finish steaming rice and to make delicate sauces. The grates are large and heavy — perfect for serious cooking. There is no problem with them being "too high." Pans heat up quickly and evenly. Cleanup is a breeze - provided that you do after every time you cook. Neither my husband or I have any complaints — we love it.

    KitchenAid GAS Cooktop - great to have

    I love cooking on this gas cooktop! The stainless steel finish gives it a high-end feel, and it’s surprisingly easy to wipe down after meals. After a full year of use, it's been completely maintenance-free. It’s both beautiful and dependable.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought over a month ago. Efficient design and looks good with our other stainless steal and black appliances.

    Easily scratched stainless steel finish

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good functioning gas cooktop, with a variety of burner sizes and BTUs. Three design bugs: (1) the cast iron grates do not always remain seated in their detents, (2) the stainless steel finish looks great new but is easily scratched during cleaning as even small particulate food matter can scratch the brushed stainless finish with a damp cloth, and (3) the aluminum burner diffusers do not clean up well, permanently stained, change color. A more durable material (stainless steel) would cost more but would solve this issue.

    So efficient!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this gas cooktop for a month and absolutely love it. Everything cooks so fast, and even. I use multiple burners at once, and that does not impact the cook time to any of the other burners, like my old cooktop used to do. Best upgrade in the kitchen!

    Beautify and functional

    This stovetop is beautiful, easy to clean and provides steady, even heating. I love how quickly I can boil a pot of water and how evenly I can brown and fully cook fish without burning it. The different size burners provide plenty of options for cooking the perfect meal. The unit also comes apart very easily in manageable pieces that make it easy to clean.
