Product review (5 stars): Excellent performance from GE's Cafe Cooktop
This beautifully designed cooktop functions as well as it looks.  The installation process took all of about 20 minutes, including installing a new flexible gas line between the cooktop and wall on/off gas line fitting.

All of the components appear to be top quality, and the grates and grill have the rugged look and weight of a commercial cooktop.

I'm getting good cooking results with the burners set on low/medium low, allowing plenty of heat to cook just about anything with non-stick cookware. The heating elements, as well as the controls, are definitely a huge step above the GE standard line of appliances.  It's easy to fine tune the amount of heat at each burner. A nice feature is the illumination of the control knob when a burner is being used.

The center burner, which is capable of quickly boiling a pot of water, is very handy for quickly bringing up any liquid to boiling point, while at the same time, having infinitely low control for light simmering.  Even though the cooktop grates are set up higher than my old GE cooktop, I'm finding that I am getting the same cooking results without having to turn up the burners.

All in all, a beautiful piece of kitchen equipment that functions as intended.  The design takes full advantage of the 30" cooktop width to allow for a 5 burner placement.  A huge improvement from my older GE 4 burner set up.  No complaints at all on this product.
