After my previous cooktop unexpectantly cracked, I looked in all the big box stores in my area and was unable to find one to replace it without waiting to order one for more than I could afford.  To my surprise, I finally found exactly what I needed at a local small business for an affordable price and was able to install it for me the next day.  I have so far had it approximately one month and love it.  Our other appliances are also GE and have worked well for several years.
