The "Maytag Stores" make a deal out of "try it before you buy it".
There's one in Minnetonka. I know Maytag isn't GE, and, frankly, I
would not recommend buying Maytag, but they have smoothtop
electrics. If it's a proof of concept you're looking for, it might
do.

Maytag Store 11300 Wayzata Blvd Hopkins MN (952) 544-0155
