loving my new oven!!
on February 23, 2017
Posted by: dfields
from New Braunfels, Texas
I bought this oven when i renovated my kitchen countertops. My old oven was a GE drop-in that came with the house when we bought it 22 years ago. I am thrilled with my new oven; it cooks quickly and evenly. This oven roasts vegetables about 1 hour 15 minutes faster than my old one and they come out with a nice crispy exterior - so tasty!! Dinners are so much quicker now that I am enjoying cooking again!! I love the cast iron griddle and have used it to cook steaks and salmon with excellent results. I haven't used the lower oven drawer yet because i keep forgetting it is there!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Solid Range That We Bought a Second Time
on February 10, 2017
Posted by: jgk7
from Rockville, MD, United States
We installed this same range in our first home a few years ago. After a recent move, we did a quick survey of the updated market, and decided to buy this same range again. The burners are powerful and easy to clean. The electric "convection" oven is rock solid. We love roasting vegetables and baking sourdough. One caveat is that the stainless surface is easy to scratch and you must remain vigilant if you want to keep it nice.
One issue did occur with this new range: there was a significant amount of small glass shards and glass "dust" in the oven when first delivered. I sliced my finger open removing the light blue packaging tape inside before I realized how much glass was in there (the inside oven coating is dark gray/black). Taking a flashlight, all these shards really lit up under the light and I carefully mopped them up. Hopefully there is no long term loss of integrity of the oven coating. No signs so far after a month of use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GE Cafe Range Problems with Convection Roast Featu
on February 3, 2017
Posted by: Charlie3450
from Lynn, MA, United States
I bought this range in December 2016. It's now February 2017, I have had 5 service appointments and the problem with the convection oven is still fixed. The service man claims it's a design issue and that no GE Café Ranges work in the Convection Roast mode.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Awesome oven. Does everything as advertised
on February 1, 2017
Posted by: Pete K
from Utah, United States
This is a thing of beauty. The burners are awesome (especially the large middle one and the simmer in the front) and the oven preheats much more quickly than the past two (Whirlpool and Fridgidaire) that I've had in the past. The buttons in front are a little touchy but the gas lockout is a great feature to keep my grandkids safe. It is a tiny bit wider than the my past two but it fit so I still recommend you look at the opening between your cabinets very carefully. I haven't had to clean it yet (curious to see how the stovetop under grates cleans up) but I'm sure it will be fine
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love our new range
on January 29, 2017
Posted by: MJJ6
from Appleton,WI
We have had our new Café dual fuel range for about a month now and we are very pleased with it. We did a lot of research and felt this range best met our needs. It replaced our 26 year old electric range. We chose the dual fuel because we still do a lot of canning and wanted to go with gas for the cooktop and we wanted the even baking that an electric oven gives. I love the large oven window and the smaller baking drawer underneath. And with the powerful burners, you can boil water in no time flat. However, the one small back "simmer" burner is just that, don't try to get something to boil on that burner as it will take forever.The only thing I am disappointed about is the time bake feature. You have to go through a series of steps to get to a time bake mode (see manual for detailed info regarding this special feature). The oven has a delay start button/feature and a cooking time button/feature, but you can use only one or the other. One lets you start the oven at whatever time you program in and the other button/feature lets you bake for however much time you program in. Both of those features are easy to use, but as I mentioned before I would have preferred to have a time bake mode on the front panel so I could program when I want the oven to start and stop (without having to go through a series of steps). But maybe nobody else will see this as an issue. I read other reviews on how the front control panel was too low or too hard to read, but I disagree with both of those statements. I also read other reviews on how easily the surface scratched, so I have been very diligent to wipe up any spills right away so they don't get baked on. Even with one feature I am disappointed about, I would highly recommend this to anyone. I have not used the temperature probe yet, but I like having that feature. Hope this helps.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Couple weeks in and love it.

Being a Chef I wanted the quality and functionallity of a commercial unit, but needed the look and appearance that the Mrs's approved of in our new kitchen. With the Cafe we both got what we wanted. Burner BTU options are perfect for every day use and serious cooking. Tested oven temp on bake and convection at 250/300/350/400 and was only 1 degree off on each which is amazing.
Continuous cooktop is level and smooth.
Feel I made the best choice after months of comparing.
