    Looks nice

    Salesman was excellent. I created the first problem in not doing the measurement. I previously had a 30” cooktop that apparently was 30.2 “ and first one I ordered was 29.75” and was too small for the cutout. The Whirlpool which is over 30” fit perfectly. The second problem occurred after the installation and the Best Buy installer left and II couldn’t close the drawers below the cooktop. If he hadn’t left So quickly the problem could have been resolved. Apparently he put the connection cord over the slide surface for the drawer. They would not come back to fix it and I had someone else do for another $100. Third problem, Best Buy installer didn’t use the foam tape. Fourth problem. Best Buy installer didn’t use securing brackets. I would recommend buyers not to pay $130 to Best Buy for their installation.

    My New Glass Stovetop

    My previous glass stovetop did not properly fit the counter opening, and when I cleaned it, it wiggled around, finally developing some cracks. Not wanting to use a cracked electric stove, I carefully measured the counter space, and found this Whirlpool, which is exactly the right size! I am so happy that I purchased it! I works beautifully, and looks elegant in my kitchen.

    Cooks well but it's slightly unfinished.

    The cook-top arrived in good condition, installed with ease, and cooks like a charm BUT, the all black knobs have a poorly delineated groove indicating the position. It is all but impossible to see. The settings for the burners are border line invisible, (see the attached photo) I enhanced the knobs on mine by filling grooves with white correction fluid. (see attached photo)

    Whirlpool Cook Top

    Good cook top. This replaced an old Tappan. Heats up fast. The knobs could have brighter lines. That is a minor issue. Had to upgrade wiring. Overall, I am happy with it.

    Great cooktop at a great price!

    I have been looking to upgrade my cooktop for some time now. I wanted to update the look in our kitchen to be a bit more modern. My wife wasn't interested in anything too fancy and she didn't want something that had touch controls because she thought that it would be too easy to accidentally turn on. This Whirlpool cooktop was exactly what we wanted and we took advantage of a great sale price. So far it is working exactly as expected and it looks great!
