Rated 5 out of 5 by Mikeeelikesit from LOOKS AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL in my kitchen island! LOVE my KitchenAid Cooktop! Have recommended it to many friends

Rated 4 out of 5 by MJM95 from Very Good Cooktop Overall Very good cooktop. At least one heat zone needs to be smaller in order to fit my smallest pots. That would make it 5-Stars.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Jim4 from Cook Top could use some improvements Takes some getting used to. Lettering on cooktop lack prominent visibility. One has to look closely when making adjustments. I believe the cook top could gain more acceptability if one could read controls better.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Mr Josh from Do not buy!! It’s trash Only lasted 2 years before it stopped working and kitchen aid does not have the parts to get it repaired. How can you still offer it but not have parts. Complete garbage

Rated 1 out of 5 by Tyhow777 from Broken from the start and bad customer service! If I could rate 0 stars I would. KitchenAid has failed with this product. Bought it new and hasn’t worked from day 1. Called for service and the tech never showed up, only a phone call asking what the issue was. After waiting a month with no call about service I called customer support. They advised me to wait a few days while they contacted the tech. Waited a few days with no response. Called back again and customer support told me I would be contacted that day. Yet again no call from KitchenAid or the tech. On the phone today with customer support today for the 5th time and have been on hold for 45min yet again with no explanation. Surely KitchenAid can do better for customer service. Still no cooktop and no clue of when it will be fixed. What a poor excuse for a product and service. Take your money elsewhere. This will be the last KitchenAid product I buy

Rated 1 out of 5 by Maspi from Have had nothing but trouble with controlling the temperature on each burner. We had a technician out after one month of service and he said the installers did not “calibrate” it. He supposedly did, but the problem still exists. Each heating pad still runs way too hot when even when lowering the temperature number. I can boil water on simmer. VERY UNHAPPY WITH THIS PRODUCT!
