I love this cooktop. Induction cooking is the best - so easy to clean, and such detailed control over heat settings. I chose this model because it has knobs rather than touchpad controls...touchpads just seem like one more thing that can go wrong, plus I like the look of the knobs. If I ever remodel another kitchen, I'll buy this cooktop again if they're still making it. I've been cooking on it for three years with zero issues.
