    Stove top
    The quality is poorly made my knobs have metaled, the cushions to hold the grates fall off. The name brand and price not worth it I would not but it again

      Worth the Wait...
      We had a loaner stove top in our new home. When oir Cafe became available, it was installed. It was worth the wait. Much faster cooking times and nicer to look at. Anxious to try the griddle.

        Beautiful cooktop, love that it has 5 burners with plenty of room on each. It is a little hard to clean but I feel most cooktops are. I actually took off one star because of how hot it gets, I believe that it's because the grates sit up higher than my old cooktop so I can feel more heat out the sides as I'm cooking since heat source is further away from the pans it seems to fan out more. I have adjusted to setting temp lower but that kind of defeats the purpose of these powerful burners! I think it will just take some getting used to . I also love the gas lock-out feature as I have a special needs child and feel better about having the option to put the lock-out on.

        Beautiful Cooktop
        Lovely to look at, lovely to cook on! Smooth grate surface makes it easy to move cookware around. Powerful burners that bring up the temperature quickly & also lower to hold a simmer. Burner placement is a good use of the space and the light under the burners makes it easy to ensure you don’t leave a burner on accidentally

              I love this cooktop. So easy to use and the big burner in the middle makes quick work of boing water.

                Scratches easily, knobs peel
                Good: easy to install, grates are hefty, providing a smooth surface for moving pots around. Power burner works great and the griddle is very solid and nice. Bad: The "stainless steel" (probably aluminum) scratches WAY too easily. I've had this for about two years now and the grates have really started to bang up the metal finish. Knobs are also starting to peel. It’s a bit hard to clean and the metal rings on the burners get knocked off easily. Wish I’d spent a bit more on something less flawed.

                    My knobs melted
                    Really disappointed in the cheap quality of plastic knobs that melt. I can’t find a replacement.

                            Cafe 5 burner stainless steel cook top
                            The cook top gas burners work well as expected. The control knobs light up when turned on to show a burner is active. Cleaning the knobs by removing is easy. The cast iron greats are three pieces and are heavy duty. A con is th we stainless steel scratches easy and the shows many marks that cannot be removed without using appropriate methods which will take a significant effort. This is a major distractor on appearance for a unit that has been in service for just 4 months.

                              So Happy with My New Cooktop!!!
                              Not only is this cooktop a vast improvement over my 20 year-old one, but the rose gold knobs are metal, not plastic, and they complement my newly redecorated kitchen with the shiny rose gold drawer handles & cabinet knobs. Everyone says how cool it looks, especially with the little light glowing beneath each knob! Unique & quite functional!

                                  Easy to clean raised burners. Love dual heat center burner. Having two burners that can be reduced to simmer is a great plus.

                                        Beautiful stove top that delivers on all things cooking. Burners have adequate spacing, cooks fast. The extra lights on the knobs gives it a nice touch. The only challenge is keeping it clean.

                                          The GE Cafe cooktop has exceeded all my expectations. It is the first thing people notice when they enter our kitchen. It is stylish and stands out. In addition the features and functionality are top notch. We especially like the gas shutoff safety feature. When you have the feature on it prevents the gas from flowing and the burner from turning on. A great feature if you have children or pets. Overall would highly recommend this cooktop.

                                              Nice to have the fifth burner
                                              Still getting used to the stovetop because the knobs are opposite of what we had on our old stove. Instead of turning left to light the flame on this one, we turned right to light the flame on our old stove. The flame seems to be evenly spaced around the burner. We cooked paella in a big paella pan on the middle burner. It took a long time, but that was because it was supposed to go in the oven after initial cooking, but our new oven hasn't arrived yet. So we had no oven to put it in. We also have the downdraft fan which I'm loving. It's relatively quiet and hides away when we don't need it.

                                                  Bought a resale house that had this GE Cafe 30” cooktop. The cooktop was only 1.5 years old. The writing on the right side are worn out, Stainless top scratches very easy, there are large holes under the burners and anything that leaks goes under the top and can’t be cleaned. The small rubber bumpers under the grates fall out and THE CHEAP PLASTIC KNOBS KEEP BREAKING AND LOOK TERRIBLE, very expensive to replace, only plus is the bottom of the knobs glow blue when on

                                                    It performs very well and I especially like that the knobs are lit. However the knobs are slightly higher than the cooktop grill so they become scratched very easily if you pull a pot or pan towards you.
