The Kenmore stove with smooth top is such an awesome stove. We have had ours for over 10 years. I just love the **Kenmore stove with smooth top because if something spills over while I am cooking, it is so easy to clean up. The self cleaning setting is perfect and easy to use. If you have a child who likes to cook like I do, then you will love the self cleaning oven. The only thing I don't like about the Kenmore stove with smooth top is that the knobs are in the front. It is to easy for a small child to turn them on. I have accidentally turned them on while I was putting groceries on the stove and not known it until I smelled something burning. Our rear burner on the b...

The Kenmore Elite cooktop needs a recall!

Let me start by saying that if you had asked me about this cook top the first couple of years that we owned it we would have said that it was nice... however, in the last year or so we have been experiencing a reoccurring problem that has turned this cook top into a nightmare and a real safety concern for us. First time we experienced this problem we thought that the stove was possessed... it would randomly change settings, turn itself on or off and just keep beeping and beeping and beeping. We do not do a lot of cooking so for most of the last year we have just been turning off the electrical breaker to reset it (which works most of the time) and keeping the breaker off if we are out of the...

This is my third cooktop! Take my advise and make sure you purchase the replacement warranty with the purchase.. I speak from experience!! My family has broken two of them wiuthout that warranty.  I broke the first one, and my teenage son broke the second.  It doesn't take much!  All I did was have a glass top from a casserole dish hit the surface just right. 

 We remodeled five years ago, and I wanted all black appliances, and thought the black glass cooktop would be easier to clean than one with burners, coils and pans that have to be cleaned underneath if something spills.   I love the way it heats up, and the fact that I can make the burners fit either a large or small pan, but with a teenager and husband who REFUSE to wipe up stuff, I have a very difficult time keeping the surface clean, and have tried almost all of the products out there to keep it clean.  Just today I purchased a new "Copoktop Magic" scrubber with "built-in scrubbing fibers."  I really hope this works.

Great cooktop

We got this Kenmore cooktop to replace our old ceramic cooktop that had gotten old and worn out its welcome. It was difficult to clean and had gotten grease built-up. We got a Kenmore smoothtop cooktop and the first one that we got had a broken corner from the box. Sears took it back no problems and replaced it. I had to file down the edges a little bit on my opening to get it to fit but it was worth it. We went from having 4 mediocre burners to having 5 good performing ones. We have never had a complaint with this in the 5 plus years that we have had it. It works great, it is easy to clean with cooktop cleaner and it looks very nice in the slot. I would definitely recommend this cooktop to anyone who is looking for a smoothtop.

The Kenmore smooth top stove is one of the best stoves I have found.  For the price you get so many great features.  It has the self cleaning oven, clock, timer and ect.  The smooth top is also outstanding if you are like me and let things boil over.  All you have to do is wipe it up after the top has cooled.
