Poor Quality
We had a new kitchen installed and purchased this cooktop among other appliances. Although the knobs on the front indicate high medium and low, the flame for the gas does not change much. You can’t cook anything at a low rate. The flame does not lower hardly at all when you go to medium or low on the knob. What makes this whole experience worse, is when I wrote to Whirlpool on line and filled out all the information about my problem, I received a form letter that amounted to sorry your not eligible for any assistance. I would never buy a whirlpool product again. Very disappointed and stuck with a product that does not work properly.

30-inch cooktop is almost not usable
Builder installed this cooktop in new house. The grate is too high above the burner to be a typical gas heat source. It is a four burner but they are so close together that it is difficult to use multiple pots at the same time. Would never recommend this to anyone unless you want a cooktop for appearance only and do not plan to cook on it. Also, first top had rust on it and spots on the burner rings. Whirlpool service did come out and acknowledged the problem and replaced the deck and burner rings.

Too small but works fine
This range came with our new construction home - we didn't have much of a choice in it. That said, after having used it for a few months, my one major criticism is that the burners are TOO close to one another and the range itself is too small. I cant fit 2 medium sized pans on the same side of the range. Having 3 going at a time is almost impossible without having uneven heat on one of the pans.
Other than the size, the range has worked as expected. It's easy to turn on the burners, there's even heat and it's definitely easy to clean! Just wish it was a little larger.

Missing parts
Just purchased this last week. And was missing the burner caps. Called in on Saturday spent more then an 1hr on the phone getting transferred from one person to another. Once I did talk to some on I was told items would be shipped out 2nd day. So I waited till Wednesday and still no delivery. So I call back again to ask if I can get info of when my parts are coming in but they said they can't give me tracking info. So now I probably will have to spend my time calling back again. I can't review on if the product work since I can't use it without the burner caps.

Unhappy consumer
This cooktop was installed in our new home. I'm not making very many meals due to the fact I do not like cooking on this cooktop or cleaning it.. The burners are too close together, the grates are too large and too high. My cabinets heat up along with the microwave which is installed above the cooktop. I have to clean under the cooktop grates each time I cook since small particles of salt or seasonings and food drips fall through. I don't like to have to feel like I'm working under the hood of a car to clean this cooktop it is very hard to clean plus the finish always streaks! Can't clean the grease off of the finish. In the past I have purchase both electric and gas ranges. I won't be keeping this unit!!! I REALLY DON"T LIKE THIS COOKTOP AT ALL!

Very Stylish
Whirlpool's 30 inch Gas-On -Glass Cooktop is the Stylish Looking Stove Top out there. Stainless Steel
with Four Burners. The Hinged Grates are Great for easy Clean-Up off the Top. Two Powerful Burners and one Accusimmer Burner for Warming and Simmering. Easy to install. It took about 1 hour from the box to the first Flame. We had Electric before. We installed in the basement for my Mother in Law and She Loves it.

Beautiful, but not perfect...
Bought this almost a month ago to update very old appliances in our home. It's a beautiful cooktop and love how easy it is to clean. I had no complaints until last night. My husband was cooking on the front right burner and when I went to clean up I noticed the knob farthest to the right melted! Ooops :( I guess you cannot cook with a high flame towards the front or your knobs will melt. I agree with another reviewer, maybe the knobs should be metal? Anyway, I contacted Whirlpool to ask for a replacement knob but unfortunately the representative was unable to place an order for me for that part because I did not have the serial number...very frustrated after I held on the phone for over an hour! I will have to pull the cooktop back up and out and call back again with the serial number...

Nice cooktop
I bought this to update our kitchen. I really like the beefy hinged grates. They make cleaning a breeze. The stainless really is fingerprint resistant, which is anther plus. There are three different size burners. My only complaint is that the smaller two burners are in the front and the two larger same sized burners are in the rear. This means I have to lean over farther when I use the larger burners that I prefer to use.

Knobs are cheaply made,horrible instructions
Overall this cooktop is alright, the larger burners are in the back, which makes no sense. The installation directions were impossible even for the certified installer from our gas company, I have a large 14 inch skillet and was using it on the front burner this caused the coating on the knob to begin to come off. (I thight they were stainless steel, but it is just s flimsy silver coating.
