Love it when it works, but...
Bought cooktop at ????, but it's made and guaranteed by Whirpool. Retailer offered a free 5-year warranty, so that's why we bought there.
Stopped working about 4 weeks ago (after 12 months usage) with blinking lights underneath and a burning smell. After a few days technician came out, said he needed parts and would return soon. Came back 10 days later, installed the new parts, and got the famous "F47" error.
It's now 4 weeks since we have had a cooktop and now Whirpool tells us it won't be able to get parts until June 13, if we're lucky...may take until June 19.

Like many of the other reviews above, got the F47 error after two months of use. Service tech could not order a new user interface board and Whirlpool is going to replace the unit.
My big concern is what happens after the warranty runs out and something breaks.

Rated 1 out of 5 by blue1der Product is Unreliable
I purchased this cooktop a week ago. It has been majorly disappointing. After about three uses an error code, F47 popped up. A repairman came out, and couldn't fix it. We are now waiting on parts. Parts to fix a new stove!!!!!! We've been eating out, because, our brand new expensive stove DOES NOT WORK!! Avoid this appliance. The technology in theory is great, but in function it is a colossal failure. You WILL regret this purchase! Consider yourself warned!

I just bought this cooktop. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH IT!!!! WHEN it works it's great, but mine does NOT work! I bought it a week ago, and used it three times before the infamous "F47 error" code popped up on the right side of the stove. I called Whirlpool customer service. They sent out a repairman, days later. He couldn't fix it, so we're waiting to order parts. Meanwhile we're stuck with the bill and inconvenience of eating out everyday until they do- NOT CHEAP!!! I am EXTREMELY dissappointed with Whirlpool and this product. Consider yourself warned. Buy this product at you own risk! If it works like mine you will regret it!
