I am on my second unit, 3 days old, and it has already had a service call. 1st unit oven wouldn't light, replaced stove, 2nd unit the oven temp was off 50 degrees, (past the 48 hr mark, no return) to much too adjust, so needed new circuit board. This unit replaces a 20+ yr old Amana gas stove that we were very pleased with. Not so much this one. Thin cheap oven grates, bottom drawer is thin and no longer on wheels, just slides out and gets crooked. If I had it to do over again, I would have repaired the old one at half the cost, but 50 times better in quality and workmanship and even ran quieter. When the oven kicks in, there is a rather loud "boompp". I miss the good ole days when a name brand stood for something you could count on. If I could figure out a way to return for a refund, I would!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It has taken me a bit to get use to the modern features, I had my previous stove over 20 years. I love the oven sensor letting me know when the oven has reached the correct temperature. I also really like how much simpler wiping down the top is.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this oven. It heats up quickly and cleanly. The only issue I have is that the timer and heat up "bell" only dings 1 time. That's not quite ideal for a mom of 3 that is running around the house all day! I would love to have it consistently sound until I turn it off. Leaves less of a chance for burning my food.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a 70 year old woman & I had to replace a 1995 stove. I wasn't sure about the new features on this stove, but I found out that it is very easy to set time & baking temp. But the best thing about it is the flame. I know that sounds strange, but on the old stove the flame was so low, but I thought it was normal. Now with this one I only use the medium setting. I love this stove.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] new home contractor installed, like the burner grates, pots & pans don't slide. Like the way the burner flames adjust down, low is low, and ideal for simmer. Oven is sensitive for temp adjustment, seems to be hotter than indicated, don't care for the way oven cycles on off to keep temp regulated. When oven lights its NOISEY. Black surface not easy to clean and streaks.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Range arrived in excellent condition. All electronic functions perform perfectly.
Cooktop burners heat very quickly. Largest burner very fast heating a large pasta pot to boil.. Oven temperatures very accurate. Came within 1-2 degrees of digital reading.
Broiler a little weak. Slow in heating up to working temperature. Digital broiler temp reads 500 degrees. Never gets that hot. Possibly might require turning up flame. I will check docs. I like a hot boiler flame for a good Pittsburgh steak.
Porcelain covering of interior oven panels appear to be of good quality. Overall,the range appears to be of good construction. Oven door has positive closing. Appears to be well insulated as the oven door does not get hot when baking or broiling. Mario
Its only a week old but it cooks food great in the overn; controls are easy to use and the materials are better quality. I would recommend this to anyone.
