What are you having? If you're not having stone or stainless then I would suggest having stone or stainless steel either side of the cooker. Otherwise there's a good chance a big frying pan is going to singe the surface closest to the cooker.
If you had granite it would blend into the cooker and you wouldn't notice it.
We're going with a white-ish quartz, going all the way round the back of the cooker as well. Aiming to be able to splash red wine and put pans down all over the place.
