My Kenmore manual also warns against shaking the pan - you know, the way
chefs vigorously shake the pan back and forth on the burner. Seems you
might scratch the surface.
I have a free-standing Kenmore model similar to the setup you're looking
at - two 6" burners in the back, plus two large burners in the front, one
with an integral 6" burner as well. The range also has a warming burner.

The stove is very easy to clean - you're also told to wipe up sugary spills
right away. My only wish is that the two large burners were in the back,
since my range hood won't carry off the steam/fumes from the front burners.
