Excellent!

This range brings water to a boil real fast! Very happy with its overall operation, easy to setup the clock and other functions. The control knobs feel solid and positive the oven however, does smell when heating but I suppose that will go away with more use. It does vent a lot of heat out the back so it's best to always use the exhaust fan. I was disappointed that the oven light is located in the back like they did 50 years ago, backlighting is useless! The light needs to be up front and above the door to illuminate what's cooking.... I still like this unit, it's a great looking range and works wonderfully.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing Gas Range
on June 2, 2020

This range has everything I wanted. The tri-ring burners is great. You can go from a very high heat down to a low simmer without moving the pan. The center burner is very handy. It's nice to have a smaller burner that isn't clear in the back. Change the grate out for the griddle or grill and you have a huge, integrated cooking surface. Compared to my previous range, this area is far superior. First, that burner was only oval and couldn't be round. That stove only had a griddle that was non-stick aluminum. This range comes with a seasoned cast iron griddle/grill. I used it to make paninis. Cheese easily came off the cast iron. The edge to edge cooktop feels much larger than other 30" ranges I have used.
The oven heats very fast and seems to work very well. I checked the temperature with my oven thermometer and it was spot on from 300 clear up to 550. The oven does let you put an offset to correct the calibration as well which is a nice touch. I also love the appearance of this stove. The cook top looks higher end than my previous range. The knobs are very heavy, solid stainless. The display has a nice feel as well although it attracts fingerprints. Wifi connectivity is a nice touch. It took some work to set it up but works well. You have to remember to press the remote enable button after every use to turn the oven on remotely which is for safety but is mildly annoying.
The only complaints I have so far are a little nit-picky. First, the burner caps don't all match. The tri-ring burner caps are heavy cast iron where the others are all painted a dark grey and feel a little cheap by comparison. They match what is on most similarly priced ranges. I wish they were all cast iron. Also, the vent at the rear of the cooktop is painted in this same dark grey. I would prefer it to be stainless because the color slightly clashes with the cast iron cooking grates. The relays on the oven are rather loud. When in convection mode, you hear a loud click every time the fan kicks on and off. It's not terrible but definitely louder than my old range. There is a fan that blows air out of the top right side of the cooktop when baking. This is not the convection fan and appears to be used to cool components outside of the oven. The fan is louder than I would expect. Again, not terrible yet it is unexpected. My previous range did not have this. The non-stick coating on the oven and racks makes the racks not slide very well. There is an optional ball-bearing slide out rack that I may look into purchasing although it is rather expensive. GE recommends adding a small amount of oil to the side racks which helps but is not something I've ever had to do before. Lastly, at a few weeks in, there is still a bit of a new chemical smell when backing. The smell seems to be coming from outside of the oven. It's not terrible but is noticeable. I hope it will go away with time.
Some additional notes: My counter opening was about 1/8" shy of 30" and the range fit snugly. My counters are about 36.375" tall although the wood counter on the one side is slightly warped and goes a little higher. Another deciding factor for this range was that it didn't overlap the counters like many other slide-in ranges. I don't think the trim kit is necessary. I thoroughly researched ranges and was between the Samsung slide-in and this one. The lack of overhang and the intergrated griddle were my deciding factors and I can say the edge to edge cook top and built in griddle are a huge upgrade over other 30" gas ranges I have used.

Scratches too easily

The top surface around the burners, the area that gets dirty the most, is sensitive to scratches by even a sponge for non-stick pans. This should be the most durable surface of the range. Otherwise I like the stove, but it looked used on day 2.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very disappointed.

Very disappointed. I am replacing a 6 year old GE. One of the reasons I bought this range is because of GE's guaranteed fit. This new range will not fit, until I get a granite installer to come and trim the existing granite at an additional cost to me.

A Beast!!!

Wow. What a range, first, it looks like it’s made to be in a million dollar kitchen. The 5 burners all have practical heat output for the size of the burner, enough room on the cooktop to actually use all 5 at once!! The oven heats up incredibly fast, has more room than expected with the rack options. It has 3 oven racks, the cooktop grates are durable and look amazing. The optional flattop middle grate is amazing for quesadillas, grilled cheese. The controls are very easy to use, has sound notifications for pre-heating, WiFi options too! We couldn’t be happier with this purchase. Highly recommend this GE Gas Range, worth every penny spent.
