I love the look of this stove, but the performance is what matters. The power boil and perfect simmer are great features as is the oval burner with removable griddle in the center. Oven and convection are also great. Easy to clean.
It is a nice product except some of the pots/pans don't rest even on the burners and they tend to tilt if you are not careful which is not really ideal
After years of cooking on electric ranges, we but the bullet and did a complete remodel of our kitchen. What a difference this range made in my love of cooking. Great access to controls, the cooking power of gas combined with electric heat when desired, amazing self-clean, the power of convection, beautiful stainless steel... This range (and all of my GE Cafe appliances) draws the attention of "foodie friends" and I couldn't be happier.
We have owned this model for about a year and already the oven fan has needed to be replaced. The stove top does not keep a consistent temperature; when 3 burners are on at once the power of all of them is decreased. When only using one burner the power is too high and difficult to maintain at a low temp.
I bought the GE Cafe duel fuel range 10 months ago, so far it is fantastic! I love being able to use both the upper and lower ovens. The normal size oven on top lets me bake heavy items without picking them up off the floor as some double ovens do. The lower oven warming tray is great when I need it. The stove top burners are wonderful for the temp. control. I can simmer or quick boil. I love the duel fuel allowing me to use propane on the cook top and bake with electric. We did need to get a electrician to upgrade our wiring. The only con is it takes a long time for the oven to preheat. Something I can love with.
I purchased the GE Cafe Series dual fuel range almost 1 year ago. It has several features I looked for in a new range: dual fuel; accurate temperatures in oven; warming drawer; center burner/griddle.
