At the time I ordered this I had not decided to change my cook island top so I was limited to a smaller size cooktop. After looking at many, I decided on this one because I like the two linked burners for a grill on one side and I like the power boil feature, but I failed to notice that there is only one large burner on this cooktop and that is the one with the power boil. That becomes a problem when wanting to, for example, make pasta and sauté shrimp or chicken in a larger pan. Other than that limitation, I think the cooktop works fine and I have no problems with the controls.I also like having the timer right there in front of me.
