This cooktop replaces a GE cooktop that was a larger one.  We redid the kitchen and I wanted to get the smaller one to allow more room on the island.  I don't regret getting the smaller one because it is generally just two of us I am cooking for. The product is very easy to operate and I do like the two burners that can be coordinated together to utilize a griddle.  The touch knobs are extremely sensitive and can turn on easily if something touches it (like a fork or spoon you have laid on the cooktop to use for stirring.)  I have noticed the cooktop is not as easy to clean as my previous cooktop so it does require a bit more care in this area and it does seem to scratch easy so just be cautious.  Although I would recommend this product I would be concious of what I think is a bit extra care while cooking and cleaning.
