The NGMP059UC is Bosch’s Benchmark gas cooktop for a 30 inch opening: five sealed burners, 43,750 BTU, and the heavier grate and knob hardware that separates the Benchmark line from the 800 Series. Benchmark gas cooktops are usually installed as part of a matched suite, and that brings a practical point worth raising – when a Benchmark cooktop sits above a Benchmark wall oven, the heat rising from the oven vent passes close to the cooktop’s underside, and the clearances between them are specified for exactly that reason.
