We bought this range in Jan 2013, moved into our Condo on Feb 1, 2013; this range has given us no problems, temp control on the oven is right on; gas burners are very user friendly (after electric for 41+ yrs) and wonderful to use.
I have had this Dual Fuel for 10 months now, and love all features, but am so excited about the griddle in the middle! We use it often for a variety of purposes, love the one large burner underneath, and the ease of cleaning. It's a must!
Wanted a five burner stove with a second oven. Got everything I wanted including the dual fuel feature. The gas top has different sized burners including a griddle. Just love this stove.
Finally realized the dream of upgrading appliances to the GE Cafe dual fuel gas range! We love cooking again! Works better than expected and makes the whole process -- from preparation to clean up -- seamless. So glad we made this purchase. Only regret is that we didn't do it sooner! Thank you for making such a great product.
I bought this range several years ago when we remodeled our kitchen. It is really a good oven. I am glad I spent the money to get something I really wanted and works so well.
My only complaint is that it is hard to see the control panel for the oven at night. Even with my kitchen lights on I have to bend over and get very close in order to use it.
Happy with my purchase BUT there are definitely things that could be improved upon...controls are inconveniently placed, you must back up & crouch slightly to set timer/oven temp etc. Also have repeatedly turned off oven by leaning too close to controls. Takes longer than I would have anticipated to preheat oven. 12" burner produces so much heat that even on low liquids boil at a full boil. Minor aggravations. Chose this range because other slide-in models no longer fit.
I purchased this as part of a kitchen remodel and wasn't sure I made the right choice. I am so very glad I did! My whole family just loves cooking on this range. It's so versatile and attractive. Looks like a much more expensive commercial brand but more affordable. Everything we cook comes out great. We love it!
