I waited a month after installing this before writing a review, because any changes always seem bad with anything new. I had a GE stovetop that lasted 24 years before the glass broke unexpectedly so I am comparing it to it. So here it is: Pros: 1. Easy to install - Less than 1 hour and half of that time was just cleaning the surface and removing the old one. There is nothing complex changing these out if you are replacing an existing electric stovetop. There are only 2 hot wires and a ground. That should be true on your existing plug and what is coming out of the new stove top. Both wires are 110 each so either can go to either side. (No nuetral on 220). Mounting: There is no need to mount brackets. My old one popped up with a flat end screw driver and was just weight heavy holding it in place - so same thing with this. It doesn't move just dropped it in after attaching felt edging that came with it. Note: It came with a scraper, mounting brackets and wire leads ready to attach to your old plug wires. I just attached the wire to where my old wires went to. SIMPLE. Nice! 2. Matt coated top is just like my old GE that I had for 24 years. It never showed dirt or scratches that much even though it was old. A lot of the newer designs have a polished finish and they always look dirty. I didn't want that. 3. I like the fact that it has a metal edging. It think this will help prevent a broken glass top. And this is exactly what happened to my old GE. 4. It warms up and cooks as good as my old GE stovetop and I absolutely loved that cooktop. If anything this stovetop may take slightly longer to heat up, but that is splitting hairs. 5. The price of this stovetop was less that 1/2 of another GE which is what I wanted to get. So that seemed like a potential risk, but the reviews were good, so why not try it. What a bargain!. CONS: 1. Functions: This was a little weird at first and had to figure it out - nothing serious though. The knobs turn very easily to each power number 1- 10. No clicks like my old GE, so if your cleaning the stove top they get moved ON or OFF with the slightest wipe... and I'm not joking, bump them slightly and they turn. This took some time to get used to. Also there is a main power button that, even though you turn a knob it will not turn on a burner without the main button activated. This was a little irritating too, but possibly a good safety feature in case you bump a knob while cleaning, it won't come on unless you engage this button. But the Power Button comes ON every time you wipe the surface, so you have to watch for the red LED lights, if they came ON. I finally got used to that - this was very different. 3. Power button - it is like a touch screen on your cell phone. If you have moisture on it from cleaning the stove top, it won't activate. You have to wipe it down dry and make sure your finger is dry before activating it. At the same time, a wet washcloth will activate it sometimes, especially on the first wipe. So basically if you wipe up a spill on the stovetop while cooking, you turned everything off. This seems to happen a lot, but I've grown used to it and constantly look for red indicator lights. 4. Knob location - Nothing big, but one front burner is in the very back and the other in the front. None of the button coincide with the location of the burners. Don't know what idiot thought this made sense. Especially the double burner in front. The outer burner has to be activated by the button every single time you use it and the button is next to a different controller for the burner. What was this all about? I finally got used to this, but still weird. 5. This glass top is about 20% thinner than my old GE. I don't know if this will make any difference, but I did notice it. However it seems sturdy enough so it may not necessarily be a CON, just something noticeable. I would buy it again, even with the cons. NOTE: I deliberately bought the Knob version, because I have a touchscreen in my RV and I had problems with it being bumped on and off while wiping also, but that one has a lock on it so once set wiping won't bother it. If that was true for this model, I would probably be a better option. The knobs didn't turn out to be as good as my old one, but they are OK once getting used to it.

I'm happy with this cooktop, it's quiet, responsive, great value for money, time will tell, the unit is easy to set up and beautiful to cook. I recommend this product, we have been using it, very satisfied, like its quiet, like its surface can cool quickly, not because of the short shutdown time will happen to burn the problem, although it is an induction stove, but also very good cooking food!

Great cooktop! Heats evenly, looks sleek, and the knob controls are easy to use, I also appreciate the hot surface indicator for added safety. Just keep in mind it’s hardwired and doesn’t come with a plug, though the installation is not hard at all to me . Overall, it is a stylish and functional cooktop! Perfect for my kitchen!

It takes a bit longer to heat up and the buttons are a bit weird, but I got used to it and it works ok.

I've been using this cooktop for almost two years and everything is working ok. Well packaged. Great value considering other alternatives. Top finishing is holding on ok. The only issue is that the control buttons accidentally turns on white cleaning the top. This is because they don't have the "push down" turn on security feature that most cooktops have. So it is a consideration if you have children. Other than that it does what it is supposed to do.

This stovetop was purchased October 5th 2023 it is now Dec. 02 2024 barely 1 year and it has stopped working randomly. The lights all turned on for all 4 burners and it stopped heating up completely. This stove was only used occasionally not for any heavy duty cooking. other reviews were correct this stove is defective or designed to break at the 1 year mark as other reviewers have stated it has happened to them as well and now myself. I contacted the manufacturer for the so called 3 year warranty and I got no response at all. they know they are selling a horrible product in my opinion so they weren’t helpful. Do not waste your money. look at my experience and others as well to make an informative choice with a better brand that will last longer than 1 year. I now have to buy another stove for my property I will be paying double compared to a real heavy duty stove. Which I should have bought to begin with. I thought this smaller stovetop was going to save me space but I ended up wasting $200 plus. Cheaper isn’t always good.

Cooktop was easy to install, looks great, and works perfectly.

Pretty to look at and easy clean up

Stove is well built and looks exactly like picture. Super easy to install and looks great!

Fits my area well and works great, just needed new wiring and followed the instructions as is.

It’s a nice one - the only issue is that the dials aren’t set like how one is used to using. For example, one would expect the the top left dial to control the top left element, the top right dial to control the top right dial and so forth — and isn’t that. So if one isn’t careful, they might accidentally turn on the wrong element. However, what I really enjoy about this stovetop is the operating switch button one has to click/press to even use the stove. So a pretty impressive safety feature in the event kids get curious about the machine that makes red lights (luckily don’t even have to worry about this!). Turn on stove with the button, then turn the dial to turn on the element (you want), otherwise you can’t even operate the stovetop. And another impressive safety feature is a self-turn off system that kicks in in event that one forgets to turn off the stove — luckily I’ve also never needed to worry about.
