Customer Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by cat4044 from Easy to clean I almost did not purchase this cook top due to some reviews I read that it was hard to clean. I just could not imagine why and went ahead and purchased based on some input from my sales person. I have used this cook top multiple times now and have had many spills. It cleans up beautifully and is not harder to clean than any other cook top I have owned. I love the look of it and its easy to use features. I really do not do anything special out side of wiping up spills once cooled and I use a stove top cleaner on it regularly. Great quality and this review although submitted based on a promotion has nothing to do with the promotion but my own independent review as this is just a great cook top to own!

Rated 2 out of 5 by Dave from Good but not as good as my 15 year old model PRO - Its a cooktop - it gets hot. CONS - (1) Outline of burner surfaces are hard to see. Old unit has a pattern in the glass and the elements had a different pattern - that was easy. This is just the same high gloss finish with a hard to see burner outline. (2) Very hard to clean - old unit was trivial to clean. The pattern in the old unit made streaking a non problem. This unit has high gloss glass. No way to clean it with windex. Need to use a white paste polish. Needs to be done EVERY night or it becomes impossible to clean. Far more effort involved than in the 15 year old one.

Rated 3 out of 5 by MaryE3 from Disappointed for a Kitchenaid product A month ago we purchased new kitchen appliances. Our old cooktop was easier to clean than our new one! Unless you use Dawn to cut any grease, the cooktop will smear everytime I wiped it with a microfiber cloth. The size of the burners is misleading. The small burners are too big for a small saucepan. I like the option of dual or single burner size. The even heat burners work great and do give an even heat. My only complaint is after using the 'even heat' burner a mark was left on the cooktop I can't remove.

Rated 1 out of 5 by None from Terrible! Terrible cooktop! Difficult to keep clean -- you just look at it and there are smudge marks all over. Previously owned a KitchenAid cooktop and it was very easy to clean. This version has spots that will not budge and it is not as easy to control. Wish I had done more research before purchasing, but I felt KitchenAid had an excellent reputation. Was I wrong!

Rated 2 out of 5 by Mike S from Not my favorite appliance I had this installed about five months ago as part of a custom kitchen renovation. Pros: - Looks nice when perfectly clean - Can get quite hot Cons: - Extremely difficult to keep clean; requires special cleaner and elbow grease and even then is easy to pock mark/permanently damage - Some burners get extremely and unexpectedly hot; knobs can be very sensitive between low heat and and really hot - One knob broke within first few months of use (power and hot surface lights no longer activate when using upper left burner); waiting on a part for warranty repair - Difficult to see outlines of burner areas unless very well-lit NB: Write down your serial number before installing. This is the only appliance I got recently where the company didn't have the foresight to put a sticker on the manual with the serial number. You basically have to uninstall it to get the serial number.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Adnil from Sleek Looking This cooktop has accurate settings. Besides your ordinary controls, it has a constant "keep warm" setting, which is ideal for keeping food from getting cold while other foods are still cooking. It looks sleek and classy. But, be careful not to spill anything on it because spills are difficult to clean off the glass top once it dries. That is the one drawback.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Unhappy from Beautiful! So beautiful! But, alas! After just a few uses I just couldn't clean it. Looked spotty and was already showing a scratch although I didn't use iron skillet or anything like that. Was a real pain but had to return it Cooked great but not at all satisfied as it looked "used" after just a few uses. Couldn't revive the new look.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Island Girl from Do not buy this cooktop We purchased this cooktop based on brand reputation, some of the on-line reviews, and the sleek design. It is hard to control the heat and the definition of the burners is not good. We are avid cooks and entertain often in our kitchen so both function and aesthetics are important to us- this model has neither. After every use we take a deep breath and once again attempt to clean the darn thing- it's at least a three step, ten minute ordeal to remove spilled food, lift the stains, then remove the resulting film and streaks. We let it cool off,wipe it down, them get the soft scrub, then get the Windex and paper towels. All of this and there are still food stains and spots. Tonight we tried a friend's recommendation to finish it with a single edge razor blade... That definitely helped but there is no way you should have to work so hard to clean a cooktop. Don't be fooled by the sleek design, the only time it looks great is the day it is installed and when there is no light on it. After just 9 months we are alrady dreaming of the replacement.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Geoff the cook from Great Cooktop! I am forced to use electric in my house and never been that happy with my cooktops until now. This is so superior to anything else I have used. The control you have over the heat is superb and the various special features excellent to have. I had looked at induction but did not want to have to replace my favorite pans. This solves the problem and some. Easy to work with and I can finally control the heat. Look no further than this fabulous cooktop if you need electric. Looks great too!
