Whirlpool stove/oven

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Oven and range work well. However this replaced one that was 30 years old (oven didn’t work), and there are differences. It would be good to specify in the booklet how to use both.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works fine but it would be nice if there was a light by each knob to signal which burner is on. Also came with scratches on the stove top.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Stove!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first electric stove also my first home. Rented a lot of places the best I’ve used in a long time. I was nervous about the electric top, but I find my pans way more evenly and cooking has been better than with fire. Same goes for the oven.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not bad, but not great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used this Whirlpool Electric Range every day for almost two weeks. My thoughts overall, it’s a good electric range; however, there are things I do wish were better.
First, the pros:
It’s pretty. Honestly, at first glance I felt it looked extremely basic. But once it was installed, it really just looks clean and polished. I love that. The glass top being smooth without any texture around the burners also is something I thoroughly enjoy. Cleaning this thing is an absolute breeze, which has not been the case for other glass-top ranges I’ve owned. The knob function took some getting used to with the dual elements, but I don’t have to think too long anymore about what I am trying to accomplish after having used it every day for about two weeks. The no preheat is kind of cool, but also isn’t wholly true.. you set your temp and time for something to bake and it just automatically adds some time to that timer. So basically, it includes the preheating into the cooking for you automatically. It may get up to temp quicker; I’m not sure.

Now, the cons:
This thing gets HOT, I mean, all over when using the oven. The front glass on the oven door is hot enough to cause burning, which is pretty concerning for me given I have a 2yo that loves to see what’s baking. The cooktop also gets incredibly warm with oven use. Not sure if it’s just an insulation issue or what, but definitely not a fan of that. The oven also seems to take ages to preheat and reach a desired temperature. The bottom storage drawer is pretty shallow, too. I have several large pizza pans and cookie sheets I store down there and I have to be very careful pulling the drawer out as they may slide and fall backwards out of there. The overall feeling of range is “cheap”. Opening the oven door and closing it, it seems to catch and is quite noisy. The control panel, and specifically the knobs, feel cheap and there is no hard stop at “hi” or “low” like I’m used to. You can turn them all the way around with ease, which means paying extra close attention to make sure you’ve actually got the burner set to “hi” or “low” and not “off”.

To sum up, again, this isn’t a bad electric range. It functions and does what it’s supposed to do. Definitely not my favorite to use but also not a terrible option if you’re looking for something budget friendly.
