Best All Ranges With Reviews

This range has everything I wanted. The tri-ring burners is great. You can go from a very high heat down to a low simmer without moving the pan. The center burner is very handy. It's nice to have a smaller burner that isn't clear in the back. Change the grate out for the griddle or grill and you have a huge, integrated cooking surface. Compared to my previous range, this area is far superior. First, that burner was only oval and couldn't be round. That stove only had a griddle that was non-stick aluminum. This range comes with a seasoned cast iron griddle/grill. I used it to make paninis. Cheese easily came off the cast iron. The edge to edge cooktop feels much larger than other 30" ranges I have used. The oven heats very fast and seems to work very well. I checked the temperature with my oven thermometer and it was spot on from 300 clear up to 550. The oven does let you put an offset to correct the calibration as well which is a nice touch. I also love the appearance of this stove. The cook top looks higher end than my previous range. The knobs are very heavy, solid stainless. The display has a nice feel as well although it attracts fingerprints. Wifi connectivity is a nice touch. It took some work to set it up but works well. You have to remember to press the remote enable button after every use to turn the oven on remotely which is for safety but is mildly annoying. The only complaints I have so far are a little nit-picky. First, the burner caps don't all match. The tri-ring burner caps are heavy cast iron where the others are all painted a dark grey and feel a little cheap by comparison. They match what is on most similarly priced ranges. I wish they were all cast iron. Also, the vent at the rear of the cooktop is painted in this same dark grey. I would prefer it to be stainless because the color slightly clashes with the cast iron cooking grates. The relays on the oven are rather loud. When in convection mode, you hear a loud click every time the fan kicks on and off. It's not terrible but definitely louder than my old range. There is a fan that blows air out of the top right side of the cooktop when baking. This is not the convection fan and appears to be used to cool components outside of the oven. The fan is louder than I would expect. Again, not terrible yet it is unexpected. My previous range did not have this. The non-stick coating on the oven and racks makes the racks not slide very well. There is an optional ball-bearing slide out rack that I may look into purchasing although it is rather expensive. GE recommends adding a small amount of oil to the side racks which helps but is not something I've ever had to do before. Lastly, at a few weeks in, there is still a bit of a new chemical smell when backing. The smell seems to be coming from outside of the oven. It's not terrible but is noticeable. I hope it will go away with time. Some additional notes: My counter opening was about 1/8" shy of 30" and the range fit snugly. My counters are about 36.375" tall although the wood counter on the one side is slightly warped and goes a little higher. Another deciding factor for this range was that it didn't overlap the counters like many other slide-in ranges. I don't think the trim kit is necessary. I thoroughly researched ranges and was between the Samsung slide-in and this one. The lack of overhang and the intergrated griddle were my deciding factors and I can say the edge to edge cook top and built in griddle are a huge upgrade over other 30" gas ranges I have used.

I bought this stove back in April 2022. It was a floor model, and all looked great until it was delivered. We did not notice that the oven door was not even. I called the appliance store and they promptly came out to check it out. The repair tech could not figure out why the door was lopsided and the oven door did not close fully due to the oven door being askew. A new oven door was ordered. We waited about 2 weeks for the new door. The repair tech came and reassembled the new door. Guess what? The door was still askew and did not fully close. The only thing we could come up with is the latches are messed up. So, a replacement stove was to be ordered. Here it is November 2022 and we are still waiting for a replacement. Other than this issue, I like the air fryer and convection cooking options. I love using the griddle. Cons are the grates are very heavy and it is a chore to clean,my mother who lives with us is in her 80's and cannot lift them.. When you have the oven on and put the timer on you can not tell what time it is. The bells for the timer are very low and you can barely hear when they go off. My mother does not care for the different sizes of the burners, it is very hard for her ot find a happy place, seems the burners are too hot or not hot enough. I find that most of my cooking is done at the 2-3 area of the knobs. Also, be careful on cleaning the surface with anything that may scratch it. The finish isn't like the older models, very cheap for a "profile" brand.

I converted it from Natural Gas to Propane, good thing I had 9/32" or 7mm sockets to change out the orifices under the burners and 1/4" nut drivers to remove the cover inside the oven. I had to find the owner's manual online to figure out how to take off the door. That instruction should come in the directions for the conversion because you really need to take the door off to get to the pressure regulator. So on the side of the hinge it says lock with no mention of UNLOCK. Push that piece up to unlock on both hinges and then barely open it 3 inches and pull the door out. Now step 3 is poorly written, it says "Turn the metal cap so the type of gas being converted to is displayed". What it should say is FLIP the cap upside down to change it to the other type of gas and when you flip it you can see the type of gas is read right side up. NG will be upside down and LP will be right side up then screw it back in and put the plastic cap back on. And leveling the range is a literal PAIN. You will need gloves or one of those rubbery jar openers because it is like they made the leveling feet out of razor blades. It isn't a nice plastic gear like most appliances. The feet are made of metal with jagged skin ripping edges. Oh and make sure you have a level on hand for the setup too.

Convection Range Review From the moment it arrived, the GE 30-inch Freestanding Gas Double Oven Convection Range has been nothing short of a revelation in my kitchen. Its sleek design and stainless steel finish immediately upgraded the look of my cooking space, merging seamlessly with my other appliances. But aesthetics aside, it’s the functionality and performance of this range that truly sets it apart. The double oven feature is a standout, offering incredible flexibility. The ability to cook dishes at different temperatures simultaneously has not only saved time but has also elevated the quality of my meals. Whether I’m hosting a large gathering or preparing a simple family dinner, the convenience of this feature cannot be overstated. The upper oven preheats quickly and is perfect for pizzas, and smaller dishes, while the lower convection oven cooks food evenly and efficiently, making it ideal for roasting and baking. The gas cooktop with its continuous grates provides a robust cooking experience. The range of burners, from the high-heat Power Boil burner to the precise simmer burner, accommodates all my cooking needs, from boiling water rapidly to gently simmering sauces. The continuous grates not only look great but also make it easy to move pots and pans around without lifting. The convection feature in the lower oven is a game-changer. It circulates heat for high-quality results and thoroughly cooked dishes. Baked goods come out evenly browned, and meats are perfectly roasted, retaining their moisture and flavor. Cleaning is a breeze, thanks to the steam clean option, which efficiently deals with spills and splatters without the need for harsh chemicals. The durable construction and high-quality materials promise longevity, ensuring that this range will be a central part of my kitchen for years to come. Lastly, the user-friendly controls and the self-explanatory user manual make operating this range straightforward. Even the most technologically averse individuals can master its features in no time. In conclusion, the GE 30-inch Freestanding Gas Double Oven Convection Range is an exceptional appliance that combines style, functionality, and performance. It has transformed my cooking routine, enabling me to explore a wider range of culinary possibilities. For anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen, this range is an investment worth making.

Bought this stove in mid August and was not delivered till mid Nov. due to the shortage of everything including Appliances replaced my 15year old GE with this new one half the burners were finally going out and the stove light quit so it was time for a replacement. this new one is nice especially the ceramic top and wife loves the burners how they come on and reach a certain temperature and go back off, this is the process it goes thru till your item is fully cooked, and the right front has the rapid boil and it is super fast heats up to boiling temp in like 4 minutes. Make sure you change out your power cord when you get a new stove.

This oven has worked well and looks very nice in our small downsizer home. I bake a lot of sourdough and so far it has risen to the challenge of high temp baking fairly often. The burners work fine, can't say I notice a difference with the fast-boil feature, but I'm not in a huge hurry and a watched pot yada yada...Black glass top is sure better to keep looking good than the prior white surface that came with the house. A couple things, we had to custom-fit the back to allow the unit to touch the wall because there was a metal cross piece right where our outlet is located. I'm not sure what has changed in construction since 1991 when the house was built but the codes are pretty stringent around here in general. Apparently "standard" 1991 height for a 220 outlet is not what GE anticipated. No big deal but not everyone has big tin snips like we do. Also the range lacks convection or proofing settings, which I admit is probably not standard features in this price range. I just miss them from my [well-known downdraft brand X ] previous model slide in range. One more thing--the location of the controls is in pass-over territory when setting down or removing anything on top, which has resulted in my scraping the knobs a bit with baking cloches, and it tends to collect spatters on the stainless and control panel. Just a learning curve. Lots of movements in cooking are habitual and you don't realize the trajectory of pots, pans and food mess until you change appliances. None of these is a deal breaker by any means. All in all I would certainly recommend this range. It is working quite well for us and we are doing more cooking than ever because we're pretty far out of town--no more "let's eat out" every few days.

After thirty years with a stove that had preset automatic oven cooking that I never used, and a self-cleaning feature that I disliked the one time I did use it (very high heat vaporizes all the gunk in the oven and the air gets pretty nasty even with the fan going), I was ready for a range that supplied cooking heat and that's it. This one fit the bill. The oven heats up quickly, and most of the exhaust heat is vented onto the cooktop. It pours out. Standing in front of the stove while the oven is heating, I suppose it's not as hot as standing there with the oven door wide open, but almost. People with a fireplace or a wood stove will know what I'm talking about. The burner grates don't noticeably heat up from the oven exhaust, but metal pots set on the rear grates definitely do, regardless of whether the burners are going. Oddly, there doesn't seem to be any insulation under the bottom of the oven; indeed, I can look into the oven and see my kitchen floor through the slots in the housing. However, I've checked while the oven was running, and the underneath (and all four sides for that matter) hardly gets warm, so I guess that free-flowing vent up top serves its purpose. Also, it's early days, but the hot oven produces noticeable off-gassing* from whatever volatile chemicals are in the oven finishes. The smell hasn't gotten into the food so far, and I hope the off-gassing will soon end. If not, that could be a dealbreaker. * most definitely not a gas leak; the smell is completely different. The burner grates are finished with a glossy coating, which is fine, except pots are more likely to slide around. Now, just stirring chopped onions around a big cast iron pan without holding onto the handle at all times makes it very likely the pan will unexpectedly slide off the stovetop onto the floor. I didn't realize how much I had come to depend on my pans being largely held in place by friction from the matte finish on the grates on my former stove. I guess I'll have to retrain my sautee technique, hopefully before a hot cast iron pan full of hot food flies across my kitchen. Otherwise, the burners are very responsive, and the three different burner sizes could be a good idea. I haven't used the broiler on the bottom yet, but I don't anticipate any problems, other than being a bit awkward. But I knew about that before I bought it. I'll see if my problems will resolve. Otherwise, it seems good appliance, looks good, easy to keep clean. If possible, I may amend this review after a few months if things change. PS - In your answer to Emily256 about drip pan liners, I notice JonathonatGEA replied "since this is a gas range we do recommend use of aluminum foil to cover the grates" -- I think you mean "do NOT recommend."

We bought this last August so I’ve had plenty of time to use and evaluate my new gas range/convection oven. May I just say how much I love it! It is beautiful, it is solid and it is well made. It is extremely easy to clean due to the quality of metals. The burners are elegant, the flame is beautiful and all things stove top cook quickly and evenly. I like the addition of the griddle burner - a great feature. The grates are solid and provide a large cooking surface. The oven is gorgeous and the shelves push/pull flawlessly. I didn’t think I’d like the convection function thinking it might be noisy but it is whisper quiet. My breads cook beautifully and evenly and in less time. The small drawer below (enough for cookies sheets or jelly roll pans) glides in and out so smoothly. Honestly, I love everything about this range - form, function, quality. It is just so well made!

Beautiful and functional gas range for the price. Purchased in Jan when it was on sale for $1400 and have been using it for about 4 months now. Stove top works great and easy to clean. Getting the oven to ignite was a bit tricky in the beginning. I had to call Wayfair customer service and they were very helpful in trouble shooting it with me. Basically I have to hold the igniter for about 10secs (letting it tik) before turning it to the lowest heat setting, letting it ignite and stay lit there on the lowest heat setting for an additional 10secs before increasing the heat. Sometimes it takes a couples attempts but that is how I get it to stay lit. The oven temp seems to get hotter than what the knobs say. There is not a heat temp sensor but no biggie I just let it heat up for about 10 minutes before use. I had an electric range before this one, gas is the way to go! All in all it's been a great range for the price. Looks beautiful in my newly renovated kitchen. This stove has that high end looks without that big name brand price.

The oven was delivered on time by friendly, helpful delivery men. Assembly was not as easy as it should've been because we needed a conversion kit ($55 from Cosmo) and we had to wait an additional week for it to come in. The conversion kit was missing a few pieces that we ended up purchasing at our local hardware store for around $35.00. The unit also did not have the anti-tip brackets with it as listed in the booklet. By the end of a long day we had two trips to the hardware store, the additional $35, lots of aggravation in looking for listed parts that were not shipped and one bloody fingertip. Everything appears to work fine with the oven. I roasted a turkey on Thanksgiving that turned out great but the rolls were dark on the back side even with the convection fans on. I'm sure I will get used to the way this oven bakes. Hopefully the hotspot corrects itself with time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I have had my oven for nearly 7 months. I didn't write a review straight away because I wanted to get used to it before I would comment on it. I agree with a few comments on heating water in a saucepan but I have found that if I place my lid on my pans (the lids are glass which is a plus) then the boiling time takes no time at all and then when the boiling process gets wild I just tilt the lid a little, leaving a slight gap and I have a constant boil. For me this is no big deal but to others it might be a pain. Loving the warming draw, never had one of these on my previous ovens. Cannot complain about the fan noise. I have had 2 convection ovens through out my life and my new gas range sounds normal to me! Now the cleaning of the cook top and grates. I will spend a good hour plus once or maybe twice a week cleaning my cook top and front. I do have slight ocd but I enjoy bringing it back to the condition it looked when it first got installed. I use everything that Bosch recommends to clean it with. I have seriously not had any problems with scratcthes or stubborn marks, grates fading. Yes it may take me a while cleaning it but for me if I am going to spend alot of money on an item I will take care of it. It's stainless steel so it is going to take a little effort cleaning it. Cannot comment on the proof function as I haven't used it for yeast recipes yet but I will do soon but I have used the pizza mode, works well. Roasting joints of meats with roast potatoes is a breeze and my yorkshire puddings are amazing coming out of the oven. I do bake cakes once a week or a pastry dessert and everything is fabulous. Well I hope my review will be of help. The 4.5 rating I have given is because of the boiling of water but that's my only slight niggle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, the stove is nice and appears to be working properly. One of the features I like is the broiler. It works really well, cooks fast and evenly. The element layout is much better on this broiler than other stoves. Things I don't like.... I miss the glass top as it is so much easier to clean and stays cleaner longer. I had a duel fuel before with a glass top. The words on the panel are too small and hard to read. The Hi/Med/Low etchings on the gas knobs are also hard to read. We have only had the stove for a few weeks, so we have not used all the features, but so far so good. I worry about the electronics. We had purchased a GE prior to this and only had it for a few months. It turned out to be a lemon. The electronics just did not match the actual temperatures in the stove. We sent it back. The big test for the Bosch is when I have to cook a large roast or a turkey.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll try and make this quick my family has been buying bosh forever and I was stupid enough to never buy a Bosch after everything I've been through with every appliance company I got to tell you it doesn't get any better than Bosch they're clean looking they're very simple which is really nice just sort of plain and Sleek looking . and their appliances are excellent ! the electric range that I bought from them several months ago is excellent in every way I picked the medium range I can imagine if you picked the highest range what it would be like! It Cooks evenly it cleans beautifully I love cooking on it I never said that about any other Appliance I ever bought I definitely recommend Bosch and here's why... to get a range when you're not buying the highest of the quality one that they carry that cooks so evenly the way this one Cooks it's hard to find I even purchased the matching refrigerator off them and it is just excellent I love it and it was the medium range one also Bosh appliances just hold up! And they do everything that boss says they do. my family's has been buying bosh for years they still have them and now I have them I'm a researcher for a law firm and I researched every Appliance in the world there was and Bosch kept coming up number one so instead of getting the rest and looking at the Rest by the best and that would be Bosch! I'm an extremely extremely picky person and the electric range and the refrigerator is just the cat's meow again... Sleek clean classy and they both just work exactly as Bosch claims excellent excellent excellent! I'm getting ready to purchase the dishwasher and their microwave now so if you're going to buy something go for Bosch you won't be sorry! And friends of mine who have never bought in Bosch before and saw how mine work so perfectly and cook so evenly and the refrigerator temperatures are great and the ice maker is fantastic they really have the ice maker down pat because that's usually the biggest problem in the refrigerator I understand that All Appliance companies have some kind of a problem we all know that but Bosch makes good for what they sell they stand by their word and they have a great customer service team and their appliances are just so every day for anybody kind of an appliance whether you are purchasing their medium grade or their highest grade I don't think it really matters I purchased their medium grade because I have a very small quaint home and the kitchen is just a nice L shape and it just seemed like a really good choice and it was and I want to say that the law firm that I work for who has sued so many Appliance companies and we are the biggest law firm in the country We Are Here There and Everywhere and I am researcher I'll tell you what when my attorneys that I work for in this large firm tell me they all have Bosch and they love them then I knew for sure it was the way to go! And boy would they write because they bought the highest end bosses and came over to my home for dinner and their wives couldn't believe how great these bosses performed the performance excellent! So I'm now a boss woman!

The range came with our new home. Two weeks after we moved in, the inner oven door glass exploded. Replacing the inner door glass was done under GE warranty. I noticed a screw lying in the door panel. It was one of the screws that hold a glass mounting bracket. The screw had never been installed. If it had been installed, there would have been even tension on the glass. Because the screw had never been installed, the aluminum mounting frame was applying uneven tension on the glass panel. In my opinion, the uneven tension caused the inner glass to explode all over our food. The technician installed the wayward screw. The new glass has even tension. I don't expect any future problems. All in all, one assembly line installer and one inspector didn't do their jobs. It's merely being human. We'll buy other GE products in the future.
