I’ve only been using this for a couple of months but so far I love it. The matte white and bronze is so beautiful. There are still so many features I haven’t even used yet, but the over cooks evenly & efficiently. The induction top heats up & adjusts temp so quickly it almost feels like using gas. Make sure you have pans that are compatible. I had to purchase a new set aside from my cast iron stuff  but that wasn’t a big deal. The sounds are subtle compared to the other Cafe appliances so the timer doesn’t sound very loudly. I’ve adjusted to as loud as it will let me and it still doesn’t seem very loud. If you have it connected to the app you can get notifications on your phone as well as preheat etc.
