Bought two months ago...works great. Only issue is with control dials...marking for heat settings are way too faint and thus hard to read.

I love how the burners are strategically placed. Each one with a special purpose. The griddle is a nice added feature as well.

We replaced all of our Kitchen Aide Superba appliances with the latest high end Kitchen Aide appliances. We are very pleased thus far. The newest version of the cooktop is far more spacious and utilitarian.

As part of our kitchen remodel, I bought this cooktop to replace our original 14 year old Kitchenaid cooktop that was working just fine. We are so happy with the new unit. Kitchenaid impressed us once again. Illuminated knobs are a great feature to let you know the stovetop is on when the flame is very low. Satisfied customers!
