Bought this 4 months ago. Surface cooking even. Oven heats up quickly, even temps. The only negative (for me) is that I wish there was another burner that had the combined smaller/larger heating elements.....but I think that is available on another GE product. Just be sure to keep up on the cleaning of the cooktop. I clean it after each use, and use the special cleaning product right away when needed and it looks great.
