We've had this a month and love the high and low range of the burners. Also, it looks stunning in our new kitchen. A couple of things prevent a 5 star review: All the information provided indicated the stove would fit in a 36" rough opening. The unit was actually 36 1/16" inches wide. We had to re-grind the edge of our new counters and it just BARELY slid in the hole between two installed cabinets. The griddle is very, very heavy, so much so that it is impractical to use (can barely get it to the sink to wash without dropping it. And finally, there are no marks on the knobs except for high and low. A few intermediate tic marks would make it a lot easier to duplicate settings day after day. Same with oven, very little idea of the temperature (we had to put a themometer in there.
I got this about 2 weeks ago and so far it has been great. The broiler does take awhile to come on. I thought the blue light would go off once the oven reached the temp it was set at but it does not. Otherwise so far so good.
We love the cook top, not the oven. Oven takes too long to warm up and the oven cycle light never goes off letting us know when it has reached the temperature.
Anything was an upgrade from my old range and this has blown it out of the water. I love the convection feature for baking bread. I also do a lot of canning so the big burners are amazing for that.
