I bought this a three month ago and am so happy that i did .

I had almost the "same" JennAir cooktop for 17 years. My new version has 2 features that are not as good as my old one. First, the old one had digital, pointer-finger controls which were much better than the new knobs for several reasons. First, when your fingers are slippery from cooking activities, it is almost impossible to turn the knobs...but it was easy to point just one finger on the touch-screen of the old cook top. Second, it is way harder to keep the stove clean with the knobs gathering grease easily. Also, the glass top of my former cooktop was a breeze to clean with Fantastic and ceramic stove cleaner, and an occasional use of the scraper. It was CERAN brand of glass top. That's what I loved about my old cook top. I always looked new. This glass top does not get clean no matter how much effort I put in. It does not say CERAN brand...I do not know what the company used this time. Although the new one ads a little metalIic bling with its shiny metal trim all around, the trim-less older model was way easier to clean. I bought this cooktop assuming it would be as good as the one made in 2006. It isn't.

I bought this to replace a Jenn Air cooktop I bought in 2006, and I loved. This cooktop has great flexibility in burner size and options. I also like the control knobs. My biggest complaint is how difficult it is to clean. I'm not talking about cooked on food. Any little grease splatter leaves smears and streaks. I was able to wipe my old cooktop off with warm soapy water and wipe it off and it looked beautiful. Now I have to clean with Affresh, a scrubber, and wipe repeatedly with a microfiber cloth to remove smudges. I am hoping it improves with repeated use of Affresh cleaner.
