GE PHP960DMBB Profile 36" Black Electric Induction Cooktop Review

My husband and I built a home in 2008 and we wanted a kitchen with some very nice appliances. This induction cooktop was on the list. I cook daily and we entertain often so we needed a reliable, powerful cooktop. This cooktop is so powerful that I basically had to relearn how to cook things because I was burning everything at first. The burner will heat from 1 to 9 in intensity. Unless boiling something, I never go above 7 unless I'm boiling something. Just like gas, when you turn the burner off, the heat stops almost immediately. When you lift a pan off the stove the control for that burner will blink for about five seconds and then shut itself off because it's no longer in contact with reactive cookware. This is a great function. If you want the burner back on, it's instantly heated again so it's not a big deal if it turns off. The best thing about this cooktop is the way it cleans up. I had an electric stove before with the smooth cooktop and it looked HORRIBLE -- stained, scuffed etc. I was worried about the smooth top on the induction cooktops so I did exhaustive research before buying one. I learned that with induction, the only part of the burner that heats is the part directly in contact with the pan itself. So if something boils over or splatters, it's falling onto a cool surface -- not baking onto the stove top. I have used this cooktop daily for years now and have certainly had things splattering and boiling over. Some days, the mess sat for hours before it got cleaned up. Nevertheless, it ALWAYS cleans up beautifully and looks BRAND NEW every time. My husband and I just marvel at the way it looks brand new no matter how much abuse it takes. It's super easy to clean as well. It comes with a special scratchy pad and ceramic top cleaner which works wonderfully but I can also use Clorox Green Works or cleaning wipes or a paper towel and water (pretty much anything) to clean it for everyday situations.

We had only two problems with this unit: 1) The first one did not work and had to be returned but this could have been due to workers damaging it while building our house and 2)the second one's timer function and lock function did not work. I didn't send the second one back because I quickly realized I would never use those two functions. I don't often time stuff I'm cooking on the cooktop but if I have to, I have a little kitchen timer I can use and prefer that because I can take it with me to another part of the house if need be. As for the lock function, I don't leave cookware on the cooktop when not in use. The burners can be turned on if my cat walks across the buttons (which I'm sorry to say she has done a time or two) or when you wipe over the controls, but they won't heat up unless there's a magnetic pot on the burner. They will just shut off after five seconds or so when it does not sense reactive cookware on the burner. So for me, it wasn't a deal breaker that those functions didn't work. I highly recommend this unit for daily cooking. It has been used heavily for three years now and performs beautifully. One warning: the installer told me to make sure nobody with a pacemaker stands close to the unit while it's cooking. I don't know if he knew what he was talking about but if this could be an issue for you, I'd look into it. Overall, this is a VERY nice cooktop and it's 90% efficient so it's a huge energy saver and friend to the environment. You won't be sorry!

UPDATE ON COOKWARE: You should test your pots and pans before you buy an induction cooktop. Some cookware looks like it's true stainless but it's not. I have mostly Allclad but I had to replace a stock pot or two. I just grabbed some Martha Stewart brand stuff and it works fine. Take a magnet to the store with you and if it sticks, you're good.
