Cons

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
Power-level limits differ between the two burners, and the listing says power sharing applies. Listing details are inconsistent: the title says 12 Inch while the size field says 20 Inch, and the dimensions in the details differ from the feature-text product dimensions. The 3600-watt detail also differs from the feature text's per-burner maximum settings and power-sharing description. Confirm the selected unit's actual dimensions, cutout, electrical requirements and power configuration before installation. The stated temperature and power settings are listing claims, not independently verified performance.

Customer feedback is favorable about appearance, while reports on heat distribution, ease of use, reliability, value and durability are mixed. Some customers describe lower power draw and say the unit does not get as hot as expected, while others report it maintains heat well. For buyers, these perceptions matter alongside the listing's specified burner power levels and power-sharing note. The overall ratings lean positive, but do not resolve the specific concerns or establish how the cooktop will perform in a particular installation.

Negative themes
- Some customers report lower power draw than expected and concerns about durability, including a report of failure after 91 days.

Frequently asked questions
Does this cooktop use induction?
Yes. The listing identifies induction as its power configuration. Use cookware compatible with induction, such as most stainless-steel and cast-iron cookware according to the manufacturer.
What are the listed power levels?
The listing gives 8 levels from 300W to 1800W for the left burner and 6 levels from 300W to 1300W for the right burner, with power sharing noted. Confirm the actual configuration because other listing details are inconsistent.
Can it be installed in a countertop cutout?
The listing identifies the installation type as built-in and provides a cutout size, but it also gives differing product dimensions. Verify the selected unit's dimensions and installation requirements before cutting or fitting a counter.
What comes in the package?
The explicit included-components list names the cooktop, a manual and a US Standard 120V Plug. A feature description also says a plug is pre-installed.
