What customers say
Consumers highly value this cooktop for its powerful performance, especially its rapid heating elements. The expansive 36-inch size is a major advantage for those who cook frequently or entertain large groups. Its sleek, frameless ceramic glass design offers a premium, modern aesthetic that elevates kitchen decor. However, the primary drawback centers on surface durability and maintenance. Many users note the glass scratches easily, even with careful handling, impacting the long-term look. Keeping the surface spotless also demands consistent, diligent cleaning. While functionality is strong, the upkeep presents a notable challenge for owners.
