This stove top is beautiful and nice looking.  All my guests get the covets when they see it.  It works well and I make sure that I clean it after each use.  I am just not used to the glass top - so it will take me awhile to feel comfortable using it.  I have had to get rid of my cast iron (found out it doesn't work well on this surface) and any pans that don't have perfectly flat bottoms.  Make sure you read the dos and don'ts before using.  I had an electric coil stove before this, so there are differences.  I got the 36 in cook top and it is large. Wish I still have my kids at home - I could have really used all the room then.Now with just my husband and I, it is probably too big.
