Very bad choice. The design with the 2 large burners so close to each other is completely wrong because you cannot use them simultaneously as large pots do not fit side by side. So basically, you can only use one of the 2 at a given time. Also, after about an hour and a half of use, the switch turns off by itself, for "safety reasons" as I was informed... And the worst part: After not even two and a half years of very careful use, one of the burners cracked. I contacted Whirlpool on Friday to ask if it is possible to repair the appliance since it hadn't been even two and a half years, and they gave me the final answer on Tuesday: it would cost me 135 euros to replace the glass, for an appliance that I had bought for 200 euros!! They even told me that it would take around 10 working days to order it from Italy, and that they were giving me a 50% discount, after first asking me how much I had bought it for.
