I have had this stove for one year and its a total waste of money The grill top always slides off base no matter how clean it is Three of four burners work No difference between medium high

only one burner the smallest will simmer the other three burners boil everything nothing will simmer on the other three burners Whirlpool repair said this model can NOT be adjusted there is no screw under the caps for adjustment I definitely would NOT recommend this model

I really enjoy the varied burners and the degree at which certain foods can be cooked My only issue is the surface area takes awhile to polish up while trying to clean it between uses

Just finished installing this cooktop and I am not impressed Cheap construction I have no idea what makes this thing worth 599 Installation was a challenge to say the least The instructions were horrible For the gas line none of the ports were called out in standard terms The inlet to the cooktop is 38 male NPT nominal OD of 675 but is described as 34 95cm The pressure regulator on one diagram is described as an adapter with 12 13cm male pipe thread which makes no sense at all and to make things worse the part actually has a 12 NPT inlet and 38 NPT outlet Nowhere does it state what size flexible line to use but the 38 ports infer a 38 gas line but when you go to buy that part it is recommended for space heaters 12 line is recommended for ranges This question could have been answered if there was a BTUhr rating for the cooktop but I could not find that anywhere None of the model numbers in the User Instructions matched my cooktop I could go on but I think you get the picture there is no excuse for documentation this poor And the icing on the cake the shiny silver knobs are chrome plated plastic I would think that for 599 at least we could get chrome plated pot metal I read in someone elses review that they melted when a pan was situated too close so I guess we will have to watch out for that I can only hope that the functionality on this appliance is much better than the installation I guess time will tell

Recently bought new home and appliances was included I like everything using this but my only complaint is the burners need to be a little farther apart When cooking not enough room to place 4 pans at same time
