Rated 5 out of 5 by Annie1 from Fantastic features with induction cooking! I'm so excited about my new Cafe induction cooktop range. I wasn't able to switch to gas when I redesigned my kitchen, but i saw the Cafe cooktop and loved it. The color works great with the decor and so much nicer than the traditional black.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rkie from Heats super fast. Great heat adjustments. We bought this as part of a complete kitchen remodel. We didn’t buy a sweet we hand picked each appliance without any thought to brand. This is an excellent cooktop.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Dissapointed_SC from Shuts itself off and technicians can't fix it. I wrote a previous review, but perhaps I was too hasty to list the details and it wasn't very useful, and now it won't let me edit it, so I'm submitting another one. The GE response to my previous review indicates that it may be because I'm not using the right pans. I can assure you I am using appropriate sized pans that are made for induction. The problem occurs no matter what pan I use (tri ply stainless, cast iron, enameled cast iron, etc). When the burner area gets hot the burner shuts off and a fan comes on. I have opened a service ticket and a service technician came out and said that it needed a software update that he couldn't do, so he would tell the service company to send someone else. They sent a second technician, who apparently didn't get the memo, and he couldn't fix it either. Since then I haven't heard anything from GE or the service provider. Other reviewers have indicated that GE can send a software update module in the mail, but I have been unable to get anyone on the phone from GE that knows anything about that despite calling customer service almost a dozen times over the last 6 months. I purchased this unit in 2016, so it's possible that units produced after mine were shipped with the software update required to avoid this issue. It may also be relevant that I spent extra on the wireless bluetooth sous vide module that also comes with a software update module. However the power problem existed before and after installing the wireless module, so I don't think it's related.
