Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

We bought it about a month ago and is working great so far. Love the no knob look and the touch controls work well so far. We bought the whirl pool cleaning kit to clean the surface. I recommend it.

Duel burners and no raised control knobs.

11/7/2025

Iwe had it installed about 2 weeks ago. We are getting used to cooking on it. The small burner in the center of the cooktop has sme bubbles in the burner. Not sure if I need to be worried about that. The cooktop is hard to clean

Cooking made easy

Legs#1 7/16/2025

I love it! My old stovetop was 27 years old. Times have changed and I had to learn a few things but it is so easy to use. It is easy to clean too and looks great. I am sorry I didn™€™t get a new stovetop sooner.

Couldn't be happier

Norm 3/10/2025

Couldn't be happier. Only one small fault to note. When cleaning top 'Lock' may click off due to soap on control surface.

Couldn't be happier.

Norm 3/10/2025

Couldn't be happier. Only one minor criticism is that during cleaning the surface, standing soap & water sometimes turns off the 'lock'.

Brings don't engage easily.

Mdb103 10/24/2024

I bought this cooktop to replace an old whirlpool brand cooktop. I'm still trying to get used to the button pads. Sometimes I can't get the buttons to engage and it has beeped repeatedly after cooking but I don't know why. I haven't found anything in the manual to explain it. When it works it works all. It's faster than my old ceramic top. I'm hoping my lack of knowledge is the only reason for my troubles. I'll update again.

GREAT COOKTOP

HAMERMAN 10/17/2024

I am happy with my purchase so far, but I would have liked to have been able to adjust the temperature for the keep warm burner (melt/keep warm). I really love the two double burners and the cooktop design.

Attractive Glass Top for Cooking

Darryl350 9/28/2024

Whirlpool is a brand name and is the reason we bought this glass top. Excellent features and ™€œwow™€ do the elements heat up fast. It was easy to learn what each burner does after reading the instructions (really don™€™t need to read instructions). We love the multiple burners and the warming burner. We bought the Affresh Cleaning kit which we use every time we use the cooktop. We are enjoying our new appliance.

Just hate it!

Jazz 8/5/2024

This cooktop may look nice, but I hate it! It has some kind of "heat sensitive" locking mechanism, that is not explained fully in the user manual, and causes an alarm to go off whenever you set a hot pan on it. I take pans out of the oven and put them on the cooktop and it goes crazy beeping when I do this and I cannot figure out how to turn it off. So annoying and if it had not been so difficult to install, I would be returning it.

Great price, efficient and smart

Skalynuik 6/3/2024

This 30" 5 zone unit replaced a 1989 KitchenAid Superba. This unit is fast and constant, the 10(broil) dual is great for blue rare steaks, and 4 dual is great for eggs. Having the 3 second safety off is great for cleaning with no fear of turning on a element.
