Looks great and works great so far
So far so good. We have had it about a month. It is easy to clean and I love how you can lift up the grills for cleaning.

Great cooktop
Great cooktop and the price is not bad either for a 36". Easy installation. Easy to clean. One flaw is the position of the knobs on top. Other than that not bad.

Very good cook top
We had a 4 burner cook top for 30 years. Since we are remodeling out kitchen we decided to try a 5 burner cook top from whirlpool. It is very easy to cook and clean up when i make a mess. I like it being a gas, it gets hot instantly.
