Frigidaire Professional 36" Gas Cooktop with Griddle in Stainless Steel - Perfect for Home Chefs!

Joe J Mendez: This is a great range top. Top quality and professional looking. Replaced a previous 5 burner top with this one and for them being the exact same size, the layout of this one gives more room for cooking. Would definitely recommend it

Chevi537Chevi537: It’s officially been one year since we bought this beauty and I couldn’t be happier- we get compliments on it all the time. This is great cooktop without all the bells and whistles of everything that’s out there. Great to cook on and a breeze to clean up. Installation was a fairly easy, just make sure and double check your measurements.

Sccot: This is a beautiful cooktop with a very hot center burner. Great for boiling large pots of water or stir frying. I just use common sense for the application. I choose burner by what size pan I am using. And adjust the heat for the purpose. I use good cookware (All-Clad, & cast iron). so far I have not needed to set the heat any higher than third dot from low. One observation I will make has to do with the heat conduction from the thin cast iron grates. Since there is not enough mass to cool when used, the front of the cook top will get warm/hot. Just keep in mind when using and not get alarmed if you rest your hand on the surface.

Installation.
I had no real issues with the install other than having to purchase a 5/8 male adaptor for the pressure regulator output line. I did not need any special tools. Just Pipe thread tape and a wrench

Cleaning.
The stainless top is a bit tricky to keep clean, but again common sense will dictate that if you use this regularly, it will require some elbow grease. Follow the recommended cleaner "Bar Keepers Friend"
The biggest issue for me is where to place the grates as I am cleaning the burner area.

Overall Bang...

Obi Wan: It's a beautiful stovetop and was easy to install. Supplied with everything I needed. Generally works very well.

Just two things that I'd want to improve (that didn't occur to me before buying):
1.) There's no LED that indicates that any of the burners are on. Because the black caps over the burners can somewhat conceal flame that is set on low simmer, it's easy to inadvertently leave a burner on.
2.) Although part of what makes this look like a high-end unit is the profile when standing a few feet away from it, the iron grates are maybe 3/8" too high above the burners. I suspect some heat is lost due to that. While the center burner puts out a lot of BTUs, the spread of the flame on that burner is quite wide so not ideal for heating a small-to-mid-width pan or pot, for example.

Having stated the foregoing, I think it's a good value.

J. Cowan: Love the cooktop. We have it on an island. I did not give five stars as the simmer isn't quite as low as I would like. Lastly it is easy to scratch. I have not sought the recommended cleaner. I see this as a tool and it works excellent. I was a restaurant chef and wanted to be able to salute and deglaze and know I had enough BTU. This has been a great tool for me. For the price is is perfect.
