Product review (5 stars): Induction is the way to go, and this cooktop is the best!
I could not be happier with this cooktop. We replaced an 8 year old ceramic radiant type, also GE,  with this induction type. Installation by me was easy. I like the way the different size elements are arranged with central located controls. Induction versus radiant heat is no contest. Two cups of water boils in 1'50" compared to 4'30" on old cooktop. The ability to more precisely control heat level and make changes to heat level faster, up or down, is a big plus. The only negative, and this is a reach, is that without any light hitting the top it is hard to see the controls. With the light on they pop right out. However, if they had used more white for them the top would not appear all black when not being used, so that's nice too. I think they choose a good balance as I have seen other tops with very pronounced controls and it did not look right.
