I do not reccomend, i paid as an "upgrade" for my new house, however it's so cheap! in fact they had to replace a brand new unit as it was faulty… Read more
from the box! very bad on operation - it has 9 power modes, and it's not a smooth power delivery but constant ON/OFF modulataion, which menas the food heats up on 100% for 1 second and then idles for 8 seconds whn switched to the low temperature setting. there are cheaper and better options !

Very fiddly controls – It works and I do like having induction. I bought this one despite being warned about the fiddly circular control because I wanted my cooktop to be… Read more
the same brand and width as my oven and could find no other option for a 70cm width. I thought I’d get used to the controls, but nearly two years on I still struggle with it. If you rest your fingertip a moment too long on the control (which happens all the time as it is tricky to use and unresponsive if it gets a tiny bit damp) suddenly it jumps to the hottest setting for a fixed time period …so annoying! Another issue is that the markings indicating where the elements are are not accurate at all. The actual heating areas are far smaller, which is a pain when cooking with a largish frying pan - only the middle heats up.

Not worth the money – Expensive unit, dead just over 2 years. It cost more to fix it Show details

Worst cooktop ever – We had the cooktop installed last week- & we are having it removed & replaced with a different brand next week. This cooktop is appalling if you are… Read more
a serious cook, it doesn’t hold a boil but pulses on & off. I thought it was faulty but the SMEG tech who came out to look said that is normal for this one. I showed a video of my pot of jam cooking which was a disaster. Also no bridge, the touch controls are not very sensitive making it hard and tedious to use, and under setting 7 it simply doesn’t cook. Don’t buy it.

I can tell you I have never been so dismayed in a product in my life. We are now over three months trying to deal with SMEG and they have been… Read more
nothing but difficult. A fracture appeared in the product only a few months after installation. Now over three months and still no joy. We were offered twice by SMEG that they would pay half of the repair bill. I don't think so, faulty product you replace it. Job numbers have been lost or not delivered and now a month after having it checked by their repair agent who agreed it was a fracture in the glass, we are still no better off and they are talking about replacing the glass top not the whole product. We have been unable to use it in case of a glass explosion from the heat. Dodge SMEG there are better products that cost alot less and are better at honouring their warranty I am sure. Next step consumers affairs.
The product was bought for us by a builder through Harvey Norman.

Not Durable - Scratches terribly – I am now up to my 3rd glass top replacement. Cracks developed within the first week and replaced. After a short while, cracks appeared again.… Read more
Technician said they were scratches, however, there is no way they could have scratched in those patterns. He did admit they were very deep, so replaced in good faith. A third replacement, and scratches appear again! I am so careful with this cook top. I use a silicone mat when I put anything on it. I wipe the bottom of the pots before I use it. I use the pots and fry pan that came with the cook top. I would expect a $6000 cook top would be far more durable. I have no enjoyment in using it as I am too scared to use it as it should be used. And yet, I still get a deep scratch/crack in it! How??? I wish I NEVER bought it.
