Product review (5 stars): Great cooktop -- installed it myself and it works fab
Looked at a number of cooktops. We decided to go Bosch all the way, and also got Bosch wall oven and dishwasher too. This is the best 30" cooktop out there. All the other 5 burner designs we looked at are useless because, yes you technically get 5 burners, but they're all so small and crammed together you'd be better with just the standard 4 burner. The Bosch 5 burner is the only one that's really thought-though the layout.. The main centre burner is really hot. The grates are heavy and substantial looking. They'll get good and greasy over time and never be cleaned :). And the knobs are metal not plastic so the whole thing looks high-end.  (sidenote: A salesperson tried to sell us a Dacor cooktop that was far more expensive, but fortunately i looked at the reviews and thought to stay away from Dacor. A friend bought a Dacor stovetop and the igniter stopped working in months.).
