I have only been using my cooktop for a couple of weeks, but so far it meets my expectations. The only thing I wish I could do is to use a smaller pot on the back middle burner. I would like to use this burner to boil pasta as my vent would be able to clear the steam better. My pasta pot is a little smaller than the burner and so the burner won't work. I was under the impression that this cooktop had the capability to sense the size of cookware and adjust accordingly. Although, I research a lot of other induction cooktops so I might be confusing it with another one. All in all, I'm happy with my purchase.
