I purchased this range a month ago & am very pleased with my selection. Oven capacity is great! It is large enough for 2 pans to sit side by side & still allow plenty of air flow around them while baking. Love the oven light feature! Having been accustomed to a timer with a loud buzzer, I wish the timer signal was louder but like the fact that there is an intermittent beep until the timer has been turned off. The "time bake" feature isn't very intuitive so I still need the instructions to set it (glad I could access these on-line). Wish the lower drawer had a handle. The drawer is a little flimsy & can be difficult to open with one hand. I realize that, however, over time some of these concerns will not be issues. Were I to choose a range over again, I would select the same one!
I know this is not a high end unit, but it suffers on basic functionality. The stove top burners are difficult to align and tend to not stay in place. The storage drawer has no handle or grip, just a slight lip on top, so it requires dry hands and a strong grip to open. The drawer came off the slides at one point. However, the controls are well thought out, intuitive, and easy to master.
I bought this a few months ago and I thought this was the kind of stove I wanted but I absolutely hate it.. The chrome rings turn colors just from the heat from the burns. I absolutely dislike this stove.
I bought this Stove a few months back to replace a Jenn Aire, This Stove is so much the easiest of the Two to use, and It does just as good of a Job. Easy to Use, Easy to Clean and Its Beautiful for a Stove.
