Fisher & Paykel - 30 in. Wide 4 Burner 3.6 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Freestanding Dual Fuel Convection Range - Stainless Steel/Black Glass

We needed to replace a 20-year-old dual fuel range with attached downdraft (located on island in open floor plan) and our options were extremely limited and complicated - we had to hire installation specialists for the FP Range and the separate downdraft (both purchased at Pacific Sales in Torrance CA). Well, after numerous delivery dates and cancellations, we finally received our range and downdraft around February 2021 and I can not be happier with our decision! This range is beautiful, it fits in our island (shallow depth), and it's a joy to use! I've used most of the functions (including Roast, Pizza, Aero Broil, True Aero, Self-Clean and more) and found the dials very intuitive if that makes sense. The oven heats up fast! The warming drawer is a bonus - my first one and I use it often. The gliding racks, another first for me, also make getting dishes in and out of the oven easy. There is also a clock and timer, which I discovered is not an automatic feature for some brands, but was essential for me. The gas cooktop burners are powerful and can be set to a very low flame, though at times I do miss the intermittent burners on my previous range (but I'm not taking off a star hah!). The continuous grates are very heavy/substantial and easy to clean either by hand or in the dishwasher (which I haven't tried yet). I clean the stainless steel usually with a damp microfiber cloth and a little bit of dishwashing soap, sometimes with a non-scratch sponge, and my husband uses stainless steel cleaner once in a while lol. We haven't owned it long enough to know how the stainless will hold up over time. To sum up, this is my first Fisher & Paykel appliance that I chose because of its shallow depth and beautiful design. I soon found out it's an easy-to-use hardworking range and I'm very happy with it! It has exceeded my expectations!
