Product review (5 stars): Induction cooking is great
We chose to try induction for our new kitchen. I have used this cooktop for about six months and love it. It heats quickly and the highest setting, H, gets a big pot of water boiling in just a few minutes. The large burner on the right is very powerful but all the burners heat fast. When you remove a pot or pan, induction burners immediately stop heating and cool. I find this a nice safety feature of induction cooking.

At the time we looked at appliances in summer 2010 there were very few good looking induction slide-in ranges, so we went with this separate induction cooktop installed in the granite counter with a GE Monogram oven installed underneath it. I verified with GE customer service online if the GE Monogram wall oven model we liked could be installed under this GE Profile induction model before we ordered. It took a couple of days but they emailed back that the two were compatible and could be installed together safely.

This cooktop is all black and it's very minimalist and sleek, with no metal edges to trap dirt. It looks and operates great. Buying cookware for it is not hard. Anything that attracts a magnet or has iron in it will work. We did buy a nice Teflon induction fry pan and a large induction pot we got on the Internet. Some All-Clad sauce pans we already had work with induction. I haven't found any problems with the touch-controls yet. I use the control-lock feature all the time to disable the burner controls so I can clean the glass surface. If you are looking at a standard glass cooktop or stove, give induction cooking a try. We love using it.
