Everything works - oven temp a little low.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been cooking on it for 3 weeks - it's done a fine job. Not a fan of the "select a burner size" option for the two largest burners, but they work so that's OK. (Hope 3 years from now they're still working.) Used a standalone oven thermometer to determine the accuracy of the oven, and it's less than indicated, but it's consistent so I'm just adjusting my temperature. I have yet to make a turkey or bake a cake, so that will also be an indicator of the effectiveness of the oven. I appreciate the glass top ease of cleaning. Overall, I'm happy with the oven/stove top.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had rage range for a month now, it came with a new construction home. Seems good so fair. I don’t like the broiler setting. You have to assign a temperature instead of just setting it to broil. Not a deal breaker.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stove came with our home and im so glad it did. Its easy to keep clean and helps to make cooking easy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This came with my KITWEST custom home. This little range is perfect size, it quickly heats up, gets the job done well. Loses a star because the cook top is very very sensitive, the sealer has already bubbled and chipped off in a few places and I've had it about a month. I am not sure why it is so fussy but it loses only 1 star because it still does the job perfectly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this oven a couple months ago and I love it. It’s quick to heat up and performs flawlessly.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The WFES3530RS has a smooth glass-ceramic cooktop that looks modern, but it’s not user-friendly and is high maintenance. I’ve been using it for only about 5–7 weeks, and I’m already dissatisfied. Even small spills can quickly turn into a hassle. Sugary or greasy spills often stick to the surface and harden, making them very hard to clean without special cleaners or a razor scraper. If you don’t clean it immediately, it can leave stains that are almost impossible to remove.
The surface also scratches easily, so you have to be extra careful not to slide pots or use cookware with rough bottoms. Regular cleaning isn’t enough—you need specific products to avoid damaging the finish, which makes cleanup feel more like a chore than a quick task.
Overall, this cooktop is delicate, hard to clean, and requires constant care. For only a few weeks of use, it’s already clear this model is more frustrating than functional.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
