Product review (2 stars): Beware safety issues on this cooktop
I bought this cooktop for a kitchen remodel because I liked the idea of the 3 gas burners and 2 induction burners. It has a 2 year warranty. After about 22 months I had a very small boil over on the induction side which resulted in smoke, popping, very scary noises and the shut-down of the induction burners. I called customer service the next day, they sent someone out, they partially repaired it (the burners worked but none of the indicator lights would come on), and then I got a bill because they wouldn't cover a problem due to a boil over. Who never has a boil over?! No Italian ever has their pasta water boil over? Seriously.
It turns out that, unlike other induction cooktops, Bertazonni has NO gasket or other safety measure to protect the components under the induction glass from water. So, any little bit of water on the front knobs, for instance, can reach the electronic components.
This is clearly a design defect and product safety issue and Bertazonni has been totally unresponsive to my requests for a repair or substitute cooktop.
The gas burners work well although it's difficult to get a true simmer on any burner.
