Love this range!

I bought a house and it had a smooth top stove. I gave it a chance, and for a variety of reasons I hated it. My preference is a gas range but my neighborhood doesn't have gas so I decided to go "old school" with an electric coil range. I also did not want the oven to have digital controls. I found this stove and it was installed 11/14/16. So far, I love love love this stove!
The only thing I would note is that while the controls for the burners require you to first push the dial in before you can turn it, the oven control does not seem to have that same feature. For this reason, I have found that I can accidentally turn on the oven just my lightly brushing against the dial. However, now that I am aware of it, this is something I am able to easily avoid. I do wish though that the oven dial had the same "push first" feature.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Time to preheat ridiculous
on July 2, 2016
Posted by: Countrydreams77

Add much add I love love love GE appliances, this is the 1st time I've ever had an issue. I set my oven to 350°, and after 30 minutes, it was only up to 300. This is simply unacceptable. This is a replacement for the same model that did the same thing, only that one stayed in a perpetual state of preheat, and once it FINALLY reached the preset temperature, it just kept going. Needless to say, everything I tried to bake got burned. Is there a problem with the thermostats in this particular model? When I cook ribs low and slow, I very often leave my home to run errands since they cook for 8 to 10 hours. There is NO WAY I feel comfortable doing that with this stove. Any suggestions?? This may sound silly, but the only reason I gave it 2 stars is because this is the first GE product with which I've ever had an issue.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Back does not fit flush against the wall. No opening for the plug at a different location.knob panel is not fully closed.Burner tray does not cover openings on knob panel.Tray panel has openings at rear.Drawer pull not deep enough and not heavy enough, also slides are very weak and hard to remove and install.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Looks good, works good. A little pricey for coil top stove just to have controls on front.
I would recommend this to a friend!

GE freestanding range jb450df

I LOVE the simplicity of this range. I turn the dial and it cooks. So NOT digital!
The user manual has been randomized to fit all digital models so I do have to figure out if the self cleaning feature has a built in timer. Not a big hassle at all when I compare this to circuit board blowout and other digital nonsense. The only drawback is the smaller underdrawer due to the larger oven size.

Nice Job

Just wanted a regular electric coil stove. Does a nice job of cooking & baking. Oven knob could be in a different location as it gets bumped & turned on when it shouldn't. Also wish it had a clock & timer.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good basic range
on September 11, 2015
Posted by: BinCA

So far after three weeks of use, oven and burners seem to work well. A little slower to heat than my old Tap-pan. Does have some cosmetic issues though. Underside of control knob plate where oven door lever is the enamel is chipped off in large spots. The bottom storage drawer indented finger pull has uneven metal finish at corners. Looks like the factory tried to repair the metal then enamel painted over it. The back of the range panel is bowed out/bent? Not allowing it to sit flush to the wall. Will be calling GE to see about fixing these items.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Range
on June 3, 2015

I recently purchased this GE Range. It is no frills, but heats and cooks wonderfully.
I love the fact that it has no electronic (computer) oven, nor is it convection to dry out food. It is a fantastic product for anyone with a little arthritis in their fingers.
Sometimes, returning to basics is a great thing!!! I would highly recommend this range.
