Overall, I give this a glowing review.  One only real negative is that the griddle two burners, do exactly as the manual says - they only heat directly above the burners.  Even with a thick steel griddle (commercial quality), the in-between space is relatively cold. Pancakes beware!  I don't think the griddle issue can be overcome as designed. It needs a "helper" induction between the two burners to be good.
