Loving my ceramic cooktop! After using and cleaning a gas cooktop, I am very happy with my new ceramic cooktop! It is efficient and easy to clean.

Installed almost a month ago. Replaced a 60 year old exposed element cooktop. The install was fairly easy, though I'm not sure the retention screws are doing much. The cooktop itself works great, exponentially better than the old one. In the lighting in our kitchen, it's hard to see exactly where the elements are until you turn them on. Overall I would recommend it.

I like the cooktop but not so sure about the controls in the front, would prefer them on the side so you are not pulling a pan across the top, this is not the cooktop we were promised so we are waiting for the correct one
