I waited a few weeks to review this cooktop. This is such a wonderful upgrade from my original builder-grade cooktop (12 years)! I use it every day and impressed with the quality of the entire unit. The dual-burner in the middle sure makes cooking a lot easier and cleanup is easy. The grates are dishwasher-safe which is important to me. My only complaint with this cooktop is how light-colored the heat-indicators are on the controls; I can barely see them but I have the controls memorized now so it's doable.

Replaced my existing kitchen-aid cooktop due to remodel. I love the even heat and dual heat burner for quick boiling. Nice quality and value compared to all the others.
