I had no idea that cooktop technology was so advanced. I can prepare meals quicker and safer now.  Temperature control of my old unit was hit & miss but Samsung's temperature settings can be trusted and temperature response time is very quick. I never forget and walk away with a burner on now, thanks to indication lighting under and above each burner control knob. I use my griddle much more than I ever thought because its quick and easy to clean.  I can't believe I have five burners and ample cooking space. I am happy I selected this Samsung product.
