This would have gotten 5 stars, except it is horrible to clean.  I have several scratches also.  I finally found stainless steel cleaner clothes that do ok.  But using anything else just streaks it and scratches it.  I'm bummed from the scratching, I'm certain one came from the factory this way.  However, I love cooking on it and it gives you the industrial look of a cooktop without the industrail price tag.
