Love this new smaller stove--perfect for our 2-member household cooking needs. It's so cute and is very simple---no fancy gadgets. I love the in-oven light, which my old 1940s stove did not have. The only thing I don't like (and I think this would be a problem with any glass cooktop) is that it's really hard to make the burners look clean. I suppose if you scrubbed it carefully after each use with special products, you could keep it looking better, but we are a little messy with cooking, and spills don't come off easily with wiping it down. However, I love the flat surface, and aside from spill marks that are hard to remove, it's so easy to wipe up since it's flat. Really love this feature, and I can live with the daily spill marks :) We switched from a gas stove, so it has taken some getting used to, but I like the electric consistency. A great little stove for smaller space or smaller needs :)
