Range igniter already bad

We installed this in February 2019. Less than 2 years later the range ignition lighter went out. Now I have to wait 10 days for the repair person to come out. Not too happy. This shouldn’t happen on an appliance that supposed to be considered “commercial grade”. Pretty disappointed in this recent development.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Just redid our kitchen and this stove looks awesome! Lots of compliments on the look. Did do some cooking on it and was very easy to use. The cleaning of the grids are easy to clean. The only downfall i would say is it doesn’t have a clock anywhere but an easy fix just got one to put above the stove. So far all is good.
We bought this as a replacement for a nearly new range oven that quit working (Thor). We love the Cafe and are very pleased with the evenness in cooking and speed of the oven!
I cook a lot, and for many years worked in professional kitchens. This stove is great! The only thing I'd like better is more flame in the center of the burner ring. Small pans heat on the outside edge and not so much towards the center. I am learning how to use the burners, though. Overall I love this range. The oven is fantastic - even heat, broiler, racks and number of rack positions are all excellent. It's good-looking and well made. I also understand that (though I was promised I wouldn't need it) parts and technicians are readily available since it is a GE product.
We did a complete kitchen remodel and adding this all gas oven was the best decision. It not only functions great but paired with the copper accents it is the best accessory in the kitchen!
We have used the new range for a month and we are extremely pleased with it. It looks great and the large oven is so useful. It heats accurately and in a very even manner. The cooktop is easy to clean and heats very quickly
The stove is beautiful, it handles nicely snd feels solid. The burners however are all the same size which is large to say the least. It’s made for commercial cookware apparently. Small pots, coffee perq, are all too small for the fore rings. Also while the dial shows simmer, low up to Xtra High for the burners, really there is Xtra High, high and then simmer...anything below high is just super low simmer. Hard to find a medium and low setting for the flame. We love the look but honestly miss the functionality of a non commercial cheaper gas stove top.
I would recommend this to a friend!
