I haven't had the cooktop long enough to totally feel comfortable with it yet. However, I do like the grates and burners. I do not like the indicators on the knobs to turn the burners on and off. They are way too difficult to read. We purchased the griddle, and really like using it. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

We compared this model Kitchenaide and the GE. We liked both but knew Kitchenaide was a better quality and was built in America. The one feature we liked on the GE was the backlit knobs. When we were looking at the Kitchenaide I didn't see that as a feaure. Imaging my delight when I used it for the first time and wow backlit knobs. The only negative I would have is the settings on the knobs are so faint you can barely see them. Other than that this is a great cooktop. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

I bought this cooktop 6 months ago and it looks OLD it's hard to clean the grates and the surface already stained it's not what it says that the finish is easy to clean I already have discolor on the grates and the cooktop service from high heat and the light ring already fell off from the heat VERY disappointed Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

I bought this a month a couple of weeks ago. We are very pleased with it. We are still trying figure out how to adjust the flame intensity after we turn certain knobs on. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

We replaced all of our Kitchen Aide Superba appliances with the latest high end Kitchen Aide appliances. We are very pleased thus far. The newest version of the cooktop is far more spacious and utilitarian. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

As part of our kitchen remodel, I bought this cooktop to replace our original 14 year old Kitchenaid cooktop that was working just fine. We are so happy with the new unit. Kitchenaid impressed us once again. Illuminated knobs are a great feature to let you know the stovetop is on when the flame is very low. Satisfied customers! Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
StuM 5/6/2019
Recently bought this cooktop to replace a circa 10yr old 36in Kitchenaid unit. Be aware that although the same size (36in) and manufacturer it might not fit without expensive countertop alterations. It required about 1/4in opening increase to fit and therefore does beg the question why? Otherwise an excellent product and would have scored higher. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
bfar 5/3/2019
We purchased this cooktop because we like the Kitchenaid name and product line.We thought it would give us more cooking space.We have had it about 3 weeks and it is beautiful to use, especially the center burner! I also like the fact that the knobs light up when turned on! We use gas to cook and its nice to see when the burners are on even when the fire is not. I only wish the knobs had more protection from the heat. I would recommend this cooktop! Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

Pros: + Metal knobs + Etched lettering so that it doesn't come off with cleaning + Simmer /power burner Cons: - Worse design than GE. The dials are spread out all along the bottom vs clustering them in the middle. This leads to a loss in cooktop space because the grates are just a rectangle vs extending to the bottom on either side to pick up extra grate space (see the 30" model to see what the extended grate looks like) - Poor dial and big burner placement also means that if you try to put a big pan in front, it encroaches on the dials underneath. Kitchenaid should have either clustered the dials in the center so large pots in front don't overhang, or put the larger burners in back and brought the smaller burners forward. - The grates just sit on top without a good locking mechanism. Just a small piece of rubber to go over a nubbin. The grates still move around. Again here too, the GE cooktop did much better. The similar tier GE cooktop we were looking at has a full recessed perimeter in the metal body so there's no way the grate feet could get out of that enclosed space. I don't recommend this model.

I would have given it 5 stars but it is very hard to read the information around the dials. I had to memorize the settings for each of the dials because I can't see them without a lighted magnifying glass. The print is so faint. The burners though and the ease of clean-up are fabulous.

Happy with purchase 3/5/2019
We have been using our new cooktop for a couple of months and couldn't be happier. The design is clean and modern. The protective finish makes clean up easy. The grates distribute the heat evenly for efficiency and browning. Simmer burner is especially useful for soups and stews. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
Denalismom 2/15/2019
I love that there isn't 2 little tiny burners on this cooktop. The center burner is so quick to bring things to boil. The griddle is not the best design though. You can can 3 grilled cheese sandwiches on it for our family that just means we're eating in shifts Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

Piyush 2/12/2019
I bought this in 2017 and got it installed around two months after receiving it. Great product and great performance. Only issue is that it is difficult to know if the stove is on or off from the knobs since there is no distinct marking on the knobs to clearly see where they point to.

Hi, overall I really like the cooktop, but where the LED lights shine through under the knobs 2 of mine have come unglued... our stove top is a little over 2 years old. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
Roger84J 2/5/2019
Great overall. Don't expect the hyped up 20000btu burner to be anything spectacular. Our installer installed the orifices on the even heat burner resulting in a Bunsen burner type flame rendering that position useless for the first 1.5 years. Seems much more promising now. Also, the griddle is indeed smaller than desirable for this market position. As others have stated, carefully match your cooking style and pot choices with the appropriate kitchenaid cooktop. They have sever knob position choices, etc to choose from. Finish has held up well with heavy use. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

I've had this cook top for one month. It is so serious, I'm amazed to own this. there is a burner that supplies even heat as opposed to just a circle of flames. there are two burners that have smaller burners inside for simmer. If you are finished making your, dish, you can change the burner to simmer and leave it where it is. My favorite part is the lighted knobs to indicate the burner is on. Great safety feature.

Excellent operation and placement of control knobs. Light ring around each knob glows when on, acts as extra safety feature. Overall design is excellent! Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
Robert1111 1/11/2019
The cooktop works very well, but the design makes it very difficult to cook multiple pots on one side or the other. Not able to accommodate larger pots at the same time. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
Mntlbn1 1/10/2019
This was installed just before the holidays and so I was able to prepare our holiday dinner using it. It takes up no more space than my old cooktop but is designed so much better. The arrangement of the burners and the strength of the flames; as well as the ease of cleaning make this an exceptionally great addition to my kitchen. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com

I purchased this unit as part of a complete kitchen renovation a couple of months ago. Finally moving back to gas cooktop after years of electric. This cooktop is beautiful and well constructed. The grates are sturdy and tie together nicely so they don't move around. It has a quick and quiet light up. Cleaning is a breeze as all parts are removable. I wish the griddle was a larger size but am very happy with this purchase. Originally posted on Kitchenaid.com
