Slide in induction ranges

I just posted a question about the Kitchen Aid slide in induction, which apparently has not made an official appearance yet, so I am checking out other slide in induction ranges. I have seen the Electrolux, which is nice and would match the Electrolux oven I have, but the front bumps out too far for me as it will be in a corner and the bump out would prevent the drawer from opening.

I would like to have the cooktop with a stainless surround as I am very concerned about chipping of the edges. I have seen slide ins at the stores that aren't even used with small chips and I do use a cast iron pan so any slide in with no surround would be a compromise.

I would prefer one with a patterned cooktop surface. I do not care if it has knobs or is touch screen. I would prefer the controls on the front of the range instead of the top as the ones with the top controls seem to have less cooktop surface area.

Oven capacity isn't terrible important as I will have a single wall oven elsewhere. I would like at least one rolling oven rack and convection with a probe is a must.

I have spent hours looking online at spec and it seems that the only range that meets most of my want is the samsung, but it has unfinshed edges.

Any evaluations of the newer induction slide in ranges?

I don't want a kenmore range as the service is terrible, so I guess since the Jenn Air and Kitchen Aid are't out yet, that leaves GE, Bosch and Samsung. I want to stay under 2500.00 and I have recently seen all of these for about that price on sale.

Any input would be appreciated, especially from those who have any of these.

Thanks,
