I looked for a new range for a few years. An unexpected kitchen remodel forced me to make a purchase. I read all the reviews and knew I wanted whirlpool. I also wanted a glass top convection oven. When I found this one, I fell in love. And I'm overjoyed with its performance and it's sleek beauty. We are so happy with our purchase.
This sleek new stainless range adds class to my kitchen.

I recently purchased a new stainless steel Whirlpool electric range with solid black top. As I'm learning how to use its features, I am finding that it is easy-to-use and very efficient. I've baked, broiled, cooked on top, set the timer and the clock. The burners on the stove top react quickly--on and off. There is a light that indicates the oven top is still hot after it has been turned off. The oven indicates its temperature as it heats to the temperature you want.The only thing I haven't done yet is clean the oven. (It's not dirty yet!) The top of the stove is beautiful and easy to wipe clean.My only beef with it is trying to read the buttons in the back. In my kitchen, I turn on the light over the stove to see what I'm cooking on the stovetop. What this does is shade the indicators (oven, broiler, clock, timer), making it slightly difficult for this over-40 user to see what button I'm pressing and forcing me to get out my readers. My suggestion is to have a small light over those buttons that would make them easier to see.
Like the temperature notification for the oven and it seems

Other than the items liked in the summary, there are 2 things which could use improvement. It is difficult to operate the controls for the rear elements when a pot is being used on them. Steam & heat from the pots is too close to your hand when operating controls.Secondly, the dual front element seems to take longer to heat as compared with the other 3 elements. This is true no matter which of the 2 elements are chosen.
I have only had it for a short time but I love the cooktop. It cooks evenly and I've had no issues with burning. Don't really like the knobs but that can be changed. Cooktop takes special products but they work.
I love my new range. It has a great design and features I enjoy. Especially like the dual burner, and being able to see the oven temperature as it preheats.
