Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Surface cracked within 2 years

Kisha4Life 9/18/2025

Great product but unfortunately within 2 years I watched the flattop as began to crack across the burners. All I did was, turn on a burner. Nothing was ever dropped on it. Warrenty didn't last long at all and so I have yet to replace this item

Very well manufactured cooktop.

Scracker 7/15/2025

First and foremost , this new cooktop was a direct replacement for an original 18 year old GE Profile cooktop and it fit the original granite opening perfectly. The new cook top was plug and play, including the power hookup. The old cooktops control legends were ink printed on the top of the glass. With time and use they had worn away. The new control legends are imbedded below the glass and can never wear away providing a much better cooktop. Hope this cooktop will out last me.

Defective product

Cambridge47 3/27/2025

I just moved in on my brand new property with Van Metre on 03/24 and the next day we tried to cook scrambled eggs. I was shocked it took about 25 minutes. I tried all five different bays and all are the same. At the highest power, the heat goes on and off and the eggs was never hot. My neighbor has exactly the same model of GE stove JEP5036STSS and only took him 3-4 minutes to cook scrambled eggs and didn't experience my issue. It does appear a defective product. I called Van Metre warranty team and they said I had to call directly with GE which really upsets me. This is a brand new home and I will have to deal with this issue on my second day move in. I will update this review when issue is resolved

Works very well - One major design flaw.

KellBud 5/21/2024

The stovetop works very well. It's great in many ways. I did have to hire an electrician to wire it to a 220 line so bear that in mind before purchasing. And, there is a huge design flaw - - - it does not clean well. After a day or two it looks old, some stains from spills are impossible to clean as they bake in. If it wasn't so difficult to clean, I would rate it 5 stars.

Great cooktop!

West Monroe Mom 6/2/2023

I previously had a similar cooktop in white, I only replaced it because I needed to update to stainless in my kitchen. The only thing I miss in this one is the bridge feature that was on my previous GE Profile white cooktop where you can connect 2 elements for an oblong shaped element. I did not want the cooktop without knobs which, I believe is what I would have had to purchase in order to get the bridge. I love the adjustable sizes of the elements.
