[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stove was bought along with a 3 other major KitchenAid appliances as part of our kitchen make over. It is my favorite of the four. The top oven has proven to be the favorite of the two ovens, it preheats fast and is easy to reach into, being higher off the floor. The stove-top burners are great also. The two back ones allow simmering while the two front ones really can put out the heat, especially the "power burner". But the real star is the fifth burner, the grilling burner. Using the included griddle pancakes, fried eggs, grilled cheese, and meats are all quick and fuss free. Seldom do I pull out the large 6 pancake griddle any more, but when I do it also heats to 400 much faster than the old stove did using two burners. The burner controls work smoothly and the igniters work well. The oven controls, clock, and timer are easy to use and see due to their brightness. The lower convection oven is plenty big enough, which was a concern at first when considering a two oven stove. It too heats quickly and evenly. The final features are the stove top and grates. Being stainless steel and deeply recessed with no need of "burner pans" this stove cleans up easily. The grates are level across the top and the included griddle can be replaced with an included grate to allow other pans or griddles to be used.
Pros: Design, easy to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

Incredible Stove

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] More features than I have ever had on an stove. Oven bakes may things at the same time and the racks are adjustable to fit many different sizes. I love the glass door front and the five burners. The griddle is perfect to cook pancakes.

Not bad, but nothing wows me...

Verified Purchase:No
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this 9 months ago to replace and electric stovetop. We've been relatively pleased with it, but it's not easy to clean, the burner knobs seems to be in the wrong configuration, and the larger burners do not have a low enough setting, so we'll often have to rearrange our sauce pans to the back burners to prevent scorching whatever we're making.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We went back and forth on whether we wanted this double oven range. I'm so glad we made this choice. It holds temperature very well and I love the power burner option.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This oven is reliable and easy to clean. Cast iron grates are a MUST HAVE! Having to large pieces to clean are somehow much easier than the smaller ones. I find that I don't use the middle burner. I can't fit anything on it when I've got something on another burner. The griddle that comes with the range is perfect for cooking pancakes, sausage, or bacon. The only drawback is that the burners ignite very easily. I bump into one of the knobs while I'm cooking and the burner turns on. I have older kids, so this isn't much of a problem. (Unless we've put a pizza box on the range!) It would be a huge concern if I had little kids.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is good to have the product and it is easy to use. The only difficult for me is all the words on the panel are kind of small.
Pros: easy to use
