Customer Reviews

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Its OK Got this cooktop with a new house. I love the center power burner. The part I do not like is clean up. If the surface would have been black enamel instead of shiny stainless, it would have been so much easier to keep looking nice. As it is the surface shows every little scratch and drop of oil, water, etc. This is a "use design flaw" in my opinion. I have had a Jenn Aire and Maytag cooktop and both had black surfaces around the burners. So much better and probably just as economical to manufacture.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Love the Lift up Grates I purchased this cooktop for my newly built home. I've been in my home now for four months and have used the cooktop quite a lot. I purchased it for the feature of the lift up grates and the overall appearance and price. I have been very pleased with it. It is easy to clean and I haven't had any issues with it. I love the "melt" burner and the higher output burner. I would like to replace one of the regular burners with another higher output one, but besides that, I would make no other changes.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Suchi, food savvy from Dawn to dusk whirlpool cook top is must! We have it in our house n absolutely love using whirlpool cooktop from the breakfast to dinner n love cooking homemade delicacies!! Plus is wide range with each vessel placed in appropriate distance from each other. Easy to clean. Minus is the it on gates are bit high from burner where we could save some energy had them little lower... also the burner can have 2 openings for flames instead of one single line..for quick cooking :)Overall happy with my cook top.

Rated 4 out of 5 by F.Muldoon from Does what it has to do This is our first time owning a gas cooktop, after having a free standing gas range for years. My wife loves to cook, and I dabble in the kitchen myself. The cooktop is easy to use, but it is a little hard to adjust the flame on the burners. The lift and stay up grates are heavy, but make cleaning very easy. A friend told me that he has a higher end, more pricier model cooktop, and it is great; so I guess you have to spend more, to get better quality

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from ease of cleaning Easy to install even with minor cutting of existing counter top opening. Had to make LP gas changes before installation. Would have been nice if the proper sized screw driver had been included for flame adjustments. Had difficulty finding one at the local tool stores. Love the flip up Grates. Makes cleaning the range much easier by not having to totally remove heavy grates or marking up the counter when placing them on it during cleaning.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Surface issues We recently moved into a newly built home and I was happy to hear that this cooktop was to be installed from the bullder. We have only cooked on it twice and yesterday after using the Whirlpool recommended cleaning product my Allfresh we have noted several scratches that more than likely occurred during install and are now awaiting warranty response. Our fears are that it scratches very easily and much care must be taken when cleaning.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Beachball from Excellent design. Installed just before Christmas. Works perfectly but simmer cooks a bit too fast. Have a call in to installer for adjustments. Grates are slightly attached so they stay in place but are easy to remove for cleaning. Stainless finish cleans well and does not leave streaks. Placement of knobs keeps them from having to be removed often for cleaning surface. So glad to have this appliance addition to our kitchen.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Jeff from Michigan from I love cooking on this This is the easiest stove top I have ever had to clean. The center burner really puts out the heat when you have it on full, but for some reason doesn't light very easily. Everything is of extremely high quality except the plastic shafts under the control knobs. 11 months of use and all of them have cracked and broken requiring replacement. Had the knobs been better made this review would have been 5 stars.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Not happy - do not buy this if you need fast cooking Got this from the builder as part of our new home, albeit as an upgrade. Food takes ages to cook and even getting a few cups of tea to boil takes way longer than it should. This is due to the distance between the grate and the burners and leads to using a lot more gas than necessary. Also takes longer to prepare food. Very disappointed. Hoping that Whirlpool has some way to fix this.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Highly Inefficient and just a junk piece We got this range by our builder in Cumming, GA and its just a piece of junk. I have to cook for hours which took few mins with other cook tops. The distance between burner and grate/grill is too high which takes lots of time to heat the vessel. Its just a time waster who needs to cook food. I appreciate if someone from Whirlpool contacts me for any help and would appreciate it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from 36 inch 5 burner gas cooktop I haven't used the stovetop much yet, just moved into our new house, but looks neat, and I love that the knobs are placed top of stove then on the front side, wish we had that on our previous stove with our other 3 kids, but at least we have this feature for our 4th baby. Just wish the middle burner is more rectangular and horizontal, so that it might work best for griddles.

Rated 1 out of 5 by suj from it is a joke!not a cooktop! the flame is too far below in the cooktop.the grates are pulled up high by some hinges-the flame never reaches the pan or anyting cooking.you can turn it on, and go to sleep! even it heats the pan, it is very uneven.very bad design!we got this as part of our new home purchase, and have been regretting it ever since.looks like we cannot get a different model either!

Rated 5 out of 5 by steve662918 from looking and cooking good This new cooktop not only looks good but cooks "good" as well. The settings are easy to mange so the amount of heat one needs is easy to obtain. The burners are placed far enough apart so large pots and skillets can be used without crowding. The unit looks good too; the grill is thick and the cleaning is easy as the grill rests on the hinges after being lifted up.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Wen Yung from Easy to Clean - Difficult to cook Product seems to be focused on easy cleaning after cooking instead of efficiency of cooking itself.Pros:Easy to cleanCons:It takes longer to cook.Distance between the burner and Iron Grid is 2" which makes any type of cookware longer to heat and in this process there is at-least ~60% loss\waste of energy.Only flat bottom cookware can used to cook.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from I love my new Whirlpool Coktop!!!! This is the best cooktop I have ever owned. It is so easy to clean and keep nice looking. I really like the way the grates life up. Makes cleaning a breeze. The flames on each burner are a little different from each other. I've played with them and understand the difference in the power of each. Cooks wonderful! You won't be disappointed !!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Love my new Whirlpool gas cooktop We purchased a new home and have a beautiful new Whirlpool gas cook-top and we love it. It is solid, easy to use and so easy to clean and keep looking nice. The fifth warming burning is an excellent feature (works great for melting too). Now we just need the griddle top insert for more cooking options with our awesome cook-top.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from I love my Whirlpool 36 inch 5 burner gas cooktop! We just moved into a brand new home that has this stove top. It has been a long time since I have cooked with gas. I had forgotten how fast cooking with gas is and how much easier it is to control the temperature. I have also loved how easy it is to clean up spills, splashes, etc. I don't think I will ever go back to electric!

Rated 5 out of 5 by JCE from Love the feature on my Cooktop We chose this 36" cooktop for our new construction home, and I love the features. The center burner has a "simmer" setting that I use a lot when making rice and soups.Love that there is an extra burner top to be used just for "melting." This cooktop is also easy to wipe down and clean. I couldn't be happier with this cooktop!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Nice Cooktop The 36 inch 5 Burner Gas Cooktop with EZ-2-Lift™ Hinged Cast-Iron Grates came standard with our new construction home. So far we have been pleased with the cooktop's performance. There is plenty of cooking space with the 5 burners. My only complaint is the knob turns from ignite to high flame vs ignite to low flame.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Good product We bought this cooktop with the purchase of a new house. There is plenty of room for all your cooking needs and still have the pots spaced apart. The burners seem to be pretty far away from the bottom of the pots/pans, so it seems to take longer to heat up. Once they are warmed up, no more problems.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from disappointed we waited 3-4 weeks for someone to come out to repair the front left burner that would not ignite. it has been over 2 weeks and have not heard when someone will be out to repair the part they didn't bring with them. not impressed at all by your product or your customer service for repairs.

Rated 4 out of 5 by JOAM228 from Works well. Good, solid cooktop. Heats great and cooks food quickly. Had a little bit of an issue with burners igniting when first using but after a few times of use and a good cleaning it works great. Very nice looking too. Wish it had a lock to lock burners from being turned on by my toddler.

The hinged cast-iron grates make it so much easier to clean than our old cooktop. We also appreciate the layout of the control knobs - easy to get to and out of the way of the heat. It makes our kitchen look soooo good!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Love this appliance! I love how easy it is to clean; the grates lift up easily, and the beautiful stainless surrounding the burners clean with just a wipe with a damp cloth. And I can adjust the controls easily, aiding in very precise changes in the temperatures I need for each purpose.

Rated 1 out of 5 by dhparikh from Junk piece, Don't buy it We also got this stove from our builder for our new home. Distance between burner and grate/grill is too high and it takes long time to heat the vessel then it cooks. Wasting energy too much Piece of junk. Whirlpool should replace grate reducing distance from burner.

It is extremely easy to use and the clean-up is the easiest I have ever had for a gas or electric stove top. I would recommend this product to anyone who prefers cooking with gas.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Good cook power but No problems with the cooking however, after pan frying with some olive oil and spices, the stainless surface is marked with white-colored dots where splattered with oil. Cannot seem to remove them. Have never had this problem with other stainless surfaces.
