I just had my GE Gas Range set-up and installed. It is absolutely beautiful. A quality piece! Big and easy to use burner knobs, a sturdy grill plate. I am very happy with my purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent range and oven.

Both the range and the oven work great. I love the fact that it is a gas range and not electric. The oven and range works much better than the electric version.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cooking Dream
on April 29, 2025
Posted by: Grandma Liz
from Atlanta, GA
My new stove is awesome! It looks great in my kitchen and cooks like a dream! I like the power boil burner. It does reduce cooking time. The griddle is large enough for my large grilling needs. It's good to have the additional storage drawer below the oven. I can't wait to try the crisp mode and self cleaning with steam features.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor cooktop/griddle burner desisgn! HEAVY!
on October 5, 2024
Posted by: EllaMay
from Bellingham, WA
We recently upgraded a 25 year old poorly insulated propane range to this one bought from a local retailer. Just about anything will make you happy after cooking on an old range where the bake times are double! My husband installed it in no time and adjusted the burners to lessen the flame output which was suggested in the manual though the screw to adjust flame output was tricky to find (and he's an electrician/handyman by trade). So far baking times have been accurate and cooking on the cook top is fine. Unfortunately my local shop did not have this model in stock when we purchased over labor day and I went off online reviews. I regret I did not meet this model in person before purchasing.
CONS-
SO HARD TO CLEAN- There are three continuous welded cast iron pieces that cover the cooktop. They are incredibly heavy- which yes helps with heat conductivity but no way would I recommend this stove top for anyone with chronic pain or is elderly and cannot lift heavy things unless of course you never clean your stovetop. To make it worse- whoever designed these made it so they interlock in the middle at the griddle section - meaning you have to remove ALL THREE PIECES to wipe down anything underneath. I am a mother of three and our primary cook and this is big pain in the a** to me as I am busy enough!! This in and of it self makes me regret buying this. To add to my frustration you can see little rest point where legs on the griddle could have been welded to correspond so then at least you'd have 3 separate sections to lift off one at a time. We are considering taking it to a welding friend to see if he can remove the interlocking pieces from the sides so I can at least remove one section of griddle /burner covers at a time. A MUCH BETTER design would to have each griddle/component be individual so I could remove one at a time. Better for weight distribution as well. I hope I am expressing my rage about this flawed design well enough??!?! lol

DISPLAY LIGHT is WAY TOO BRIGHT at night. Even my 15 year old Bose stereo was designed so that it dims once the lights go down- why did GE not employ this technology? I have to cover it with a towel at night b/c I hate blue light so much.
FRONT LEFT BURNER is huge and I HATE the placement!!! I don't want my largest burner to my left as a right handed person and the majority of people are right handed. I want my largest burner in the back right corner to hold my big cast iron or my stock pot- this design feels like it was made by some male designer in a high rise who has never spent any time in a working home kitchen. It feels awkward and dangerous to have to reach across the big skillet to get to say the small oatmeal pot in the back and risk burning my forearm as I'm sauteing onions and peppers in the front.
Other notes-
I have not yet used the air fry function. Convect is a nice feature. So far it's OK, but of course I use the cook top every single day multiple times a day and my oven less so, so I've given the cook top a lot of consideration. Would I buy this again? No. I am begrudgingly making use of it since this is a problem of privilege but let's all face it poor design is part of American capitalism these days. Hopefully I get 25 years out of it.

Bare Bones That My Builder Forced On Me
on November 25, 2024
Posted by: Borap1975
from Falling Waters, WV
The builder selected and installed this range. It is bare bones and definitely not what I would have selected. It came with a griddle down the middle, nice perhaps for a few people. I prefer having a cooking grate. My last range from Samsung had the cooking grate and included the griddle so you can swap out as you wanted. The griddle on this GE model is low end and everything on it will stick. I plan on replacing this range with a better built range from another brand. I liked GE 40 years ago but I am no longer a fan. Their products tend to be of lesser quality in terms of materials and features. Again, the builder picked this and I have hated it from day one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
