The burners are all different, and we are learning, which is best, for what we are cooking; for instance, the small, back left burner never seems to bring things to a full boil, but it works best, for making rice, and other things that need to cook slowly. Having used electric, for years, it is an adjustments, and some of the burners really burn hot, even when on a low number but I love the gas cook top and how easy it is to clean. The oven works great and seems to cook just right based on recipe temps and time. I have had other ovens that are way to fast or slow, and it is hard to tell how long to cook things.
