My wife and I bought a KitchenAid 36" 5-bruner Gas cooktop for our new custom home along with five other KitchenAid appliances. After using them for a while we realized that we made the right brand choice. This cooktop is by far the best for controlling the flame over other brands that we previously owned in last home. The KitchenAid cooktop has a true low flame setting which was not the case on the other brands we had. In addition, the layout of the burners and the control knobs are well placed. This is truly a quality product that I would recommend to family and friends.

We purchased a new home and this cooktop was already installed. In the past, we have had commercial grade cooktops with black ceramic bases. I was concerned about keeping the stainless clean and scratch fee. It cleans up easily with soap and water. The other nice feature is it doesn't stick out past the counter top and the knobs are on top away from small hands!

Grates are not level.

clear No, I would not recommend this to a friend

We have been using this for about 2 months. New home and we chose the builder option of Kitchenaid appliances. Because the grates are not level, food does not cook evenly. When putting anything in your pans, the liquid runs to the front of the burner. We have highest quality pans and I have checked them for levelness. I got our level measurer out and the counter is level, pans are level, cooktop is level but when you check the grates, they are not! Extremely frustrating. I am going to see about getting it replaced under warranty. Reading other reviews, I see others have the same issue. I do not recommend this unit.

I was hesitant purchasing this cooktop having had a bad experience with kitchen aid slide in ranges. No longer worried. Works great and is beautiful. Love that the knobs are not plastic
