5.0 out of 5 stars Easy install, works well, looks great
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2023
I was able to install this cook top myself in under 2 hours with the removal of my old cooktop taking the majority of my time. It works great, I love the controls on the right side versus in the middle like some others and it seems to work very well so far!
The package did come damaged and I was concerned I’d be opening a broken cooktop like some of the other reviews but it was in great shape with no blemishes or cracks. The cooktop comes prewired with the electrical conduit pre-attached and all it took was installing the mounting brackets into the countertop, clear caulk and connecting the wires in my existing junction box with wire nuts to get this installed.
Overall the dimensions and cooktop are as described and at the time I purchased this, it was about $100 cheaper than Home Depot.
I should also note the delivery came about 4 days earlier than originally expected which was also great as big box stores don’t always have these on the shelves (mine didn’t).

All in all, if you’re looking for a glass electric cooktop for under $1k I would suggest this one 9/10.

What I love:
Controls on the right
Quick delivery
Different pan sizes for cooking
Ease of use and size
Overall appearance
Ease of installation

5.0 out of 5 stars Fits the old Frigidaire cutout like a glove, easy install, looks and works great!
Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2023
I was a bit concerned when the cooktop was delayed a few days in arriving, but once it arrived, I was delighted. It fit the previous Frigidaire cooktop space perfectly, was easily installed and works wonderfully. The quick boil is awesome, and cleaning up (with the included trial bottle of cooktop cleaner) so far is a breeze. The metal strip along the front looks great. A great replacement cooktop at a very affordable price!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product - poor shipping materials
Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2023
First one never even made it to our house but was damaged in transit apparently so badly that UPS just turned it around and sent it back. (BTW, hate that Amazon cancels the oder in this situation and you have to wait on refund then order it again.) Anyway, shipping packaging on the second one was woefully inadequate and arrived with carton flaps open top and bottom and wires hanging out. That said, the product was luckily in brand new condition. My only complaint about the product was having to scrape off three large tables on the top glass plate - Tip: use a hairdryer and plastic scraper.
Easy to install and heats up really fast, great to use - so still gets 5*

4.0 out of 5 stars good value/good looking stove top
Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2024
My new stove top is now installed, and I have cooked on it a few times. Of the options available, I think this one looks best for the price. I wanted only four burners. I wanted a flat top, etc. The knobs make the quality look even better. My old stove top was so ancient that it is not a good point of reference, but this one heats up much faster and is definitely an upgrade. There is perhaps less subtlety than I'd like between low heat and hot heat. I'm still trying to find that middle ground. Also, all of the flat top surfaces I've ever cooked with get a scuffed look where the pan was cooking. I have not had any spills, and I have been careful with my pans, and that telltale scuffing was already present after just one use. Based on my experience with this type of stove top, I do not think this is avoidable. Finally, I do not like the small ridge around all of the new flat top cook tops. It is hard to clean around them. They should come with a border installed, but I also think aesthetically that would not look as good. So, here we are. Overall, I am satisfied with this purchase.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible Manufacturing
Reviewed in the United States on August 17, 2024
If I could give this no stars I would. I have had 3 Frigidaire stove tops in which 2 have ending up cracking. The first time it happened I blamed it on coincidence due to the longevity (15 years) I had my first Frigidaire stove. Once the 2nd one cracked in less than a year I ordered a 3rd one and paid out of pocket for.This 3rd one I have had for less than year when it cracked during heating of the stove top. This then led me to believe that the manufacturing of this stove top is not made of durable material built to withstand such temperatures. I reached out to try and replace this stove being that it was still under the 1 year warranty and was told I would have to pay over 500$ to replace the top. I was then told you only have 30 days from the time of purchase to return the item or use the warranty for the top. Thus being said I said "no thank you" and went and purchases another brand and paid more than the 600$ they wanted to charge me to replace my stove because I will NEVER own another Frigidaire in my home due to the lack of professionalism and responsibility of such a large company to make things right. I feel as if this could have been an easy problem to resolve but instead they gained an unhappy customer who will no longer purchase a Frigidaire product.
