Product review (4 stars): ... stove--- hard to find now-- this cooktop was the best buy I could find without spending a lot more ...
Since I had to buy a downdraft stove--- hard to find now-- this cooktop was the best buy I could find without spending a lot more money. We installed it ourselves without too much difficulty.  I am just now getting used to cooking on a smooth top stove, but I like it as well as I would like any glass top stove.  I'm careful not to have any spills because they are hard to clean up.  But, this is true of any glass top stove. I would recommend the GE Profile to  anyone who does not want to spend a bundle for a downdraft.
