This is so bad (my apartment supplied the stove) that I bought 2 induction burners to use instead. The stovetop takes forever to heat up, forever to cool (an issue in my hot weather climate), scratches, has a marked surface unless you vigoursly scrub with special products. I'm 60, have been cooking since I was10, and can hardly wait for this to be replaced with a stove that does more than looks good but is not for use. This is a stove for people who don't actually cook, have a show kitchen, and go out to eat. If I could give it a "0" rating, I would.

Hello Glyn57,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review on your range. We regret to hear that you are not pleased with your experience.
Many factors go into the design of our products and consumer input is a top priority. Other factors, such as consumer expectations, manufacturing, cost, changing technology and product appearance are also part of the design decision.
Your comments are important to us and we will forward them to our product design team.
We bought this range a few months ago. I love all the features EXCEPT one. The control panel is impossible to visualize without shining a flashlight directly on the panel. Is there anyway this could be illuminated ? Do you sell a retro-fit to make these controls visible ? Thank YOU !!
My range is less than a few months off and the glass top appears scratched already. I do not use my range a lot nor am I rough with it. I use special glasstop products and it doesn't rub out the scratches. I hate to imagine what it is going to look like after a number of years. The functionality of the burners and oven is fine and it is an attractive appliance.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to write your review on your range. We’re sorry for your experience. While scratches and mars can occur on the radiant surface, they are likely not permanent and should be able to be removed. Please take a look at our following tips we hope will help to make your clean-up easier:
Has some good features, but some significant issues. Control panel is verticaly mounted without backlighting. It cannot be read without a light in the kitchen turned on . Oven temperature control is poor in maintaining the temperature. It drops as much as 30 degrees F before heating back up. This is not adjustable but is inherent in the way the way the control circuit works. If I wish to maintain a reasonable temperature level I need to turn off the oven every 10 minutes and immediately reset it, effectively a very crude manual control. The stovetop burners are easy to control and adjust. This would be a decent range if the two problems were corrected, especially a properly engineered oven control circuit having a sensible deadband not the 30 to 40 F that it has now,
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I've had this range for five months now, and could not be happier with the performances. The convection roast feature is my favorite and I use it almost daily. The include cast iron griddle is an amazing additional bonus to an already great range. Love the looks, love the performance - can't wait to do some holiday cooking with this appliance.
