We had a similar model stove before we got this one. I didn’t expect it to be that much different. Once it arrived and we got the correct pans, it was like magic! We can boil water in close to two minutes. Dinner cooks so much faster when the pan is already ready to go as soon as you turn the burner on. I love that it’s safe around my kids because the burner does not get hot. The top stays very clean because even if you spill something on it, it doesn’t get burnt and stuck to it. I’m not sure I’ll ever go back to a traditional oven. This one is amazing and I’m so happy I got it!
