30-Inch 4 Burner Gas Cooktop, Architect® Series II

Good Looking and Well Designed

Rock LADY 11/21/2019

Very appealing look and well laid out. Not as easy to clean as a stand alone glass cook top, but the visual appeal for a gas application is awesome!

BAD DESIGN

DECC 7/18/2019

THE COOK TOP WORKS GREAT HOWEVER WHEN YOU ACCIDENTALLY BOIL OVER A POT THE LIQUID GOES THRU THE HOLES FOR THE BURNER CONTROLS AND SHORTS OUT THE ELECTRONIC IGNITERS UNDER THE STOVE. EXPENSIVE REPAIR.

Easy to use with good features

I am happy with my cook top except it's hard to clean with heavy grid top of glass top. I a afraid I might break the glass top while I am cleaning. I wish it comes with grid cover so it won't get dirty all over the cook top.

First Experience Using Gas

Ms. G Mr. B 5/30/2019

This is the first time in the 50+ years of cooking that I have used gas. This was a great way to start. I have received numerous comments on the great look of the cooktop.

DO NOT BUY - spark ignition disaster

Anonymous 5/21/2019

Similar to other reviews, water boiled over and some liquid got underneath the knobs. There was lots of popping noises, smoke and FLAMES. I had someone come to look at it, and they said 1) that this was vey poorly designed and will probably happen again and 2) because the cooktop is glass, they will not make the repair because they do not want to be liable if the glass breaks (the glass is glued to the countertop). I hope KitchenAid has a recall on this appliance. It is dangerous!

After initial difficulties I am enjoying it

Karabunga 4/22/2019

Now that an in-warranty technician has adjusted the burners so they light properly and the flame is the right height, I am happy with this cooktop. Initially the left front burner did not light properly. Best Buy swapped out the unit no questions asked, but the second cooktop did the exact same thing! (In the reviews I saw someone else had this same experience.) The technician resolved the issue, but it would be much less work for the customer if they rolled off the assembly line with all burners adjusted properly. Aside from this initial problem, here are some of my other assessments. This cooktop cooks very nicely! The power and control are excellent, and I am very happy with the cooking results. Design wise, the black glass is very sleek, but the grates look awfully big. They are very prominent visually and are a little challenging to move and clean. (In order to clean the glass, you have to move the grates.) But everything cleans up nicely with soapy water. The burner caps keep spills out from the working parts and lend a professional look and feel to the cooktop. As other people stated, it is sometimes a little challenging to center pots over the flames, and things feel a little cramped when using multiple burners. My smallest pots wobble a little, which didn't happen on my old JennAir. Anyway, had I not had the initial lighting issue, I would have rated it 4 stars instead of 3 because I do very much enjoy the cooking results.

Pamelaojc 12/14/2018

I remodeled my kitchen two yrs ago and unfortunately purchased this cook top. There have been 4 occasions, starting just shortly after installation, when I either had a small spillover, or used a sponge a bit too wet, and a little water must have gotten into the the unit. It sparked a lot, flames were visible under the ignition switch, and I smelled what seemed like an electrical fire. I'm 55 yrs old and have been cooking my whole life. I've NEVER had a problem with a stove before. Each time Kitchenaid sent a repair crew to fix it,despite the obvious design flaw (see other reviews with the same complaint). Finally, they've agreed to replace the unit, after some negotiation, for the full MSRP of the unit($1199), but only if I purchase from among their models. Unfortunately, this unit has dimensions that are difficult to match, and there's no one in customer service to help me find a compatible unit to meet my needs. So far, I've not found anything that suits my needs. If I request cash back to purchase from another company (Miele has the unit with the closest dimention) I will only get $954.28 and the rest is on me. Why a lower amt? B/c , they say, it's an older unit. Older unit? It's been an unsafe and problematic unit from the start.

HATE this cooktop !!

SHAL 12/3/2018

This cooktop came with the house we bought so I don't know when it was purchased. There is a lot of gap underneath the knobs that liquid will go through ! TWICE in the last week, the spark ignition switch harness burned with loud red popping noises under the glass. It's come to a point where my wife feels so unsafe in the house because both times it happened when we were not using the cooktop :( It's a shame really that the knobs are on the same level as the burners with no protection. I've already spent so much money on the repair once, not repairing it again ! Please buy a cooktop where the knobs are not at the same level as burners. It's a very easy thing to look over until it happens to you...

I waited till Thanksgiving was over to write this. Just to see how the unit stood up to the big show. Your cook top done ya proud folks. Pans and pots flying, sauces, cranberries, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green beans, gravy, giblets, breakfast that morning and all sorts of other things going across the top and never one complaint. Then after everything was done the unit cleaned up marvelously, cause I'm a messy cook....

Dissapointed

Quique 9/14/2018

This cooktop is not a standard size so my counter cutout was an inch bigger causing me a problem to cover that big gap behind. Furthermore, the foam strip that was supposed to go all around the four sides only covered the front side. What a dissapointment.

Mwanggaa79 8/6/2018

First cooktop had a burner that would not light. Now replacement one is having the same issue. You have to let it light for 20 secs before it'll ignite. So frustrating. It's the large burner too!!!

Burned out twice

Patricia48 11/29/2017

We have had this model for 7 years and recently experienced our second major breakdown. Liquid can seep beneath the ceramic surface and short out working components. Also, the grate is not designed to fit exactly over the burners on the side where the large burner is located. This makes centering a pot a careful and tedious endeavor. Poor engineering. Looks good but having to replace it much to soon.

What Are Manufacturers Thinking??!!

Texan1 10/14/2017

Haven't been able to use since Kitchenaid now makes their cooktops 21 inches deep just like all others. We have lived in our home for over 20 years and have Corian countertops. We had a gas cooktop that we are replacing with the Kitchenaid, but the older cooktop was deeper so our cutout is too large for the new one. I'm having to repair the Corian to fit the new cooktop.....NOT HAPPY

Great new features

9/15/2016

I have had the old style of this cooktop in a different house and wasn't sure about the glass top. Well, I couldn't be happier. It is very easy to clean - even homemade spaghetti sauce wiped right off with no staining. The different sized burners make cooking with right sized pot with right sized flam so much easier; and, it forces you to use all the burners which really is better for the life of the cooktop.

I used the stove for the first time. I am very pleased with the stove overall. The only thing I find are the grates are very heavy. Also liquid spilled on the grate while cooking. I was not able to completely clean the spill. There are two spots which remained on the grate. I hope this does not keep happening as the grates might not last too long.
