I purchased this range for our vacation home because I am an avid baker and needed a double oven. I love the small oven for individual baking needs, like a pizza or a dozen biscuits. The lower convection oven I use for baking all types of breads. I keep a baking stone in both ovens and enjoy the convenience of having two ovens that I can bake at different temperatures with simultaneously. I really am happy with this range and would recommend it to others.
Owned two months. So I really thought I wanted stainless steel, it is after all the popular item these days. I must say it is very pretty but: The stainless steel still has spots on it where the tape stuck to keep the doors closed during shipping. If you are not OCD about that stuff like me, probably no big deal. I have to push fairly hard on the oven buttons, the whole top part moves back toward the wall and I have gotten to the point where the timer does not get used and I hope what I am cooking is at 350 degrees. I baked a pie in it three days ago and used the oven cleaning feature today, the bottom of my oven is still dirty, I will have to do it again and probably will need some Oven Off. I am not a fan of the flat glass cook top ( I prefer gas, but we have an electric kitchen), the burners work very well and I usually have to cook everything on low (yes that was a positive point). My last stove only lasted 4 years, (same version only in all white), so we will see if I get used to it or pitch it for a new one. I also thought I would like the double oven, ok I won't lie I do love the little top oven, The bottom on the other hand I find my self on my knees trying to get a heavy dish out of the bottom portion and trying to heave it almost literally from the floor to the counter with hot pads. Just some things to think about when it looks all pretty in the store.
I purchased this range as a replacement for a 25 year old electric range. I am very pleased with the ceramic top as it is easy to clean and cooks quickly and evenly. I am able to use my existing pans.The smaller oven is great for smaller dishes and reheating. It heats quickly. The larger oven is perfect for big meals like the lasagnas I bake for the homeless shelter. I can't wait to try a turkey in it. I am still getting used to how the convection feature shortens cook times. The controls are easy to use and understand, and I was happy that they are on the back panel.
This stove has unique features, easy to clean and makes cooking and baking fun again...Whirlpool products are the best...You will not be disappointed if you choose this stove.
We had a nunber of people here for Easter, and the two ovens worked great for the Ham, Wild rice dish, sweet potatoes, and scaloped potatoes. The top oven works great for Pizza, because it heats up so fast and really cooks great. We couldn,t be more pleased with this Appliance. And all the Whirlpool Gold Appliances look great.
Love the stove. I do not know how I baked without the small baking oven on the top of the convection oven. I bake more food now than I have in the past. The "keep warm" feature of both the oven and stove top are definitely time savers and helpers.
