[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product has more features that I need, they are all self explanatory and easy to use. There is only one thing that I do not like, I keep the panel locked all the time because I have a 1year old and he loves to push buttons, but I am frustrated because it doesn't lock everything, my sun still can turn the oven light on while in the lock mode. I wish it would lock everything even the gas.
Pros: Performance, Convenient Features, easy to use
Cons: lock control doesn't lock everything

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get superb power from the burners. The oven works perfectly. The top cleans up quickly. The operating screen is easy to use and read.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wish there was more than a one page chart of instructions on how to USE all the features. For the price-- twice the cost of a stand-alone model-- there should have been a small cookbook with samples of recipes using each of hte features.
It is nice to be able to bake, and have all parts of the items cook at the same rate.
Would have prefered something other than digital controls-- the panel is very sensitive-- nice, if you are pushing buttons on purpose, but it also responds if you lean against it while reaching overhead, etc.
Pros: Convenient Features
Cons: digital panel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Remodel of our kitchen required a slide in and I had read good reviews of this model. We did have an LG that was pretty nice ... all the bells and whistles so this one was up against some high expectations. Overall it is a great range. We use the convection roast several times a week. The burners are well thought out and the power burner is terrific. Grates are really heavy iron and look great. In short ... it has the right features and performs better than any range I've owned. BEST in class digital control module - easy to use and completely logical ... we are very pleased!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A bit like switching from a Camry to a Hummer, and we do prefer the bulked-up look of the new range, even at its bulked-up price. The range is attractive and easy to clean. We found that the burners, being further from the pots, need to be turned up higher than expected. The largest burner has great control, but is only just powerful enough for wok cooking.
The oven takes forever (30 minutes?) to warm up on the bake setting: it is much quicker if set to convection bake, at least for the warm-up. One disappointment: considering the complexity of the electronic display, it's strange that the oven's actual temperature is not displayed, so when a recipe called for reducing the temperature from 425 to 325 there was no way to tell whether it had got there.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product replaced a Superba Series and delivers much higher oven performance, has higher output (BTU) burners and has an awesome simmer control burner. The oven auto ignition control is a little noisy when it cycles though the ignition sequence but the baking/broiling performance. We are daily users with diverse cooking needs so we have been very pleased.
Pros: easy to use, Performance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to use all of the features with the holiday cooking. I love the warming drawer. However, a few items that I noticed that are a bit bothersome is that everytime, we lean against the front panel of the stove, it sets off one of the buttons. The other thing I noticed is that it takes quite a while to pre-heat. However, I love the even cooking and the Convection part of the oven when I'm baking cookings. It is a great investment and I'm glad that we went with this model. I also love the look of it in my new kitchen. Love the gas versus electric also. Thanks for a great product.
Pros: Convenient Features, Performance, Design, easy to use
