I purchased this cooktop during a mostly DIY kitchen reno. I was able to easily follow the instructions for drop in installation and gas line set up. The spacing of the burners allows for plenty of room to have pots and pans during  busy evening of cooking. The lights on the controls and the solid construction of the grates take the cooktop to the next level. Only issue, which is to be expected with stainless, is cleanup can sometimes be a hassle. Cannot yet comment as to the longevity of the cooktop.
