Comment:
Everyone in our family enjoys cooking on this cooktop. It heats up fast, the controls are accurate. I like the style and the placement of the control knobs,leaves more space for the 5 burner configuration. <br /><br />All my other appliances are GE Profile, this looked far more professional than the GE.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

I love this cooktop! I thought 5 burners would be cramped in a 30 inch cooktop, but it works, even though sometimes they are close together. I usually have 3-4 burners going at the same time, but when I've had 5, it works fine.<br /><br />Our favorite burner is the center 19k burner. It boils water fast, and simmers excellently. My children and I have observed that it is almost as fast to heat a can of soup (in a pot) as it is to use the microwave.<br /><br />My only complaint (and it is a big one) is that all 5 knobs broke after 3 months. LG replaced them, but if I would have had to purchase, they would have cost $22/each! I know that I will need to replace them again, and am incredibly annoyed. I will call the warrantee department again before my years warrantee is up because they are already wearing again. <br /><br />Although I love my stove, I would not buy it again unless they replaced the cheap plastic knobs!<br /><br />If it were for the stove's cooking ability I would rate this a five, but the cheap knobs make it a 3.
How long have you owned it:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
