A: Installation costs depends. Just physically installing in the unit in a counter top with a correctly sized hole is super easy. You just drop it in, tighten up a couple hold down fixtures, and connect the 2 hot leads wires and the ground. The big installation issues are the counter top hole size, the wiring to the unit and appropriate circuit breaker. This design has a wider range of acceptable cut out sizes than most and can fit into cut out holes from 281/8" to 291/4" wide and 195/8th to 201/2" deep. I had thought about buying a unit I could flush mount by cutting a lip in the granite, but I'm very happy with how this unit sits and looks. The big installation issue is that this unit ( and most other induction units too) needs a strong electrical connection with wiring and breaker big enough for a 45Amp, 240Volt service. I pulled No. 6 wires (thick and heavy), but No. 8 (easier to install) should also meet code. If your present installation is for a gas cook top that only needs a normal outlet with 15-20A 120V service, or even if your present cook top is an electric unit that only has 30 to 35 Amp 240V service you will need to put in new wiring and a new breaker, or call an electrician to do it for you. I spent about $100 on wires and parts, and about a day to pull the wires, put in junction boxes and a new breaker, but I'm pretty inexpensive on my own projects. I'd guess an electrician would need to get a permit, and would have taken a day to do my job. My guess is that it might have cost about the same as the cook top. But, just listen to my sweetheart - that cook top is wonderful! So easy to clean, to control and use, and so blazing fast to heat. Made me a hero!

On the fence.
I love its steady temperature--I had a big pot of lentil soup that I cooked on low overnight and there was no scorching! The glass surface is easy to clean and doesn't burn on food like my previous glass cooktop seemed to do. It is easily scratched, though. I've cooked on it only a few times (installed late August) and it has scratches ( see picture). There's a 'burn in' time where it gives off a weird smell, like a moldy sponge and melting electrical wire. I was assured this is normal for new cooktops. The circlular dials for setting temps are difficult to master, and are affected by any touch, such as wiping a spill. The super boil is amazing--rolling boil in less than 2 minutes! The big zone cooking area works great, but my smallest saucepan (2 cup, 5 inch diameter) is not acknowledged by the sensors, so it is unusable.

Touch “pad” gets in the way.
I’ve had this unit for almost a year now. The features on this piece are a great, the flex zone, the power boost, and melt mode. But if anybody is like me, you tend to make a little bit of a mess when you’re cooking, or a lot. For example if you’re boiling something and you pick up the lid to check and any condensation runs down off of the lid and drips onto the touch pad, it can activate a touch button or two or more, and then unit will shut itself off. It treats the liquid across the buttons as a fault and automatically shuts off the burners. So if you’re cooking more than one thing at varying temperatures, for example, you have to know where you left off because it just cleared all the settings you had. And if it doesn’t shut off, the water droplets can actually change the sitting on the keypad. So if you have it set at seven for example, and you pick up the lid and it drips onto the keypad somewhere, picking up the temperature or lower the temperature so changing from 7 to 12 or 4. I called Samsung to treat this as a warranty issue. They sent somebody out and replaced the board. It does the exact same thing. The technician took a video and send it to Samsung and said that’s just the way it works. I can re-create this problem anytime and every time. It is very frustrating to be in the middle of cooking and because you dropped condensation across the keypad it can completely shuts everything off. It seems to be almost too smart for Its own good and there’s no fix for it. Also the timer on the front is almost useless. The volume is so low you don’t even know when it went off. The picture attached is the air code that you would get during a “multi-button touch fault”. Also, the “Child lock” feature can be overridden by same method. If you lock the buttons, just put a few drops of water on the touchpad and viola, the “Safety” lock has been turned off. Again, i showed the tech representing Samsung, “nothing they can do about it”. I can trigger this fault by fluid on the pad, a finger that touches more than one button at a time, a metal utensil/object across multiple buttons. I trigger the fault everyone I clean it. It is way too sensitive for my liking. In the middle of Thanksgiving, multiple burners going, and to check my smashed-taters, condensation drips on the pad and shuts off the gravy on one burner, the green beans on another and the simmering honey butter. To turn the stove back on, you have to completely clean the touchpad. No other button will work if faulted. Whole lotta fancy for something like this to get by QC. Not cool Samsung.

Great so far
I received compensation for this review, but the review is my own: I ordered this to replace an old Jenn Air that we had from the prior owners, one of the burners went out and we figured we'd move to induction due to the Samsung Cookware giveaway with purchase. Prior to purchasing I was reading a lot of reviews about the sensitivity to the cooktop and how the burner turns off with moisture, etc. In my testing, I have been unable to replicate this issue and in fact, the other day I was boiling water for pasta and dropped some water on the cooktop and it didn't turn off and I was able to wipe it and continue cooking. I'm not used to having the biggest burner in the middle of the cooktop but I will get used to that with some time. Things I love?I love that it has a built in timer, a pause button which is great for needing to walk away and the rapid boil and ability to not have the entire cooktop hot since it's only heating with the connection of the induction. Things I hated? Nothing really, the only thing I'd note is the analog magnetic is annoying and unreliable and I much prefer to use my fingers, so I keep it on the fridge in the event I'll ever wanna try it again.
