A: Hey there, We can absolutely understand how unpleasant that new oven smell is. The smoke or odor should dissipate after the first few uses. If you want to get rid of the odor quicker, then consider the following tips: Self Clean Oven: We recommend running the Self Clean cycle for a minimum of 3 hours. Important: The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the Self Clean cycle of any oven. We recommend birds be moved to another, well-ventilated room when running the Self Clean cycle. Steam Clean or Standard Clean Oven: We recommend running the oven on Bake at 500 degrees Fahrenheit for one hour and then running the Hi Broil for 45 minutes. We hope this is helpful. Let us know if you have any other questions. Mike@Cafe
Q: Does it have a built-in exhaust vent?
A: There is an exhaust from the oven that blows from vents at the rear of the stove top. The exhaust operates automatically. See picture:
A: The glass top is black not dark grey and the top is glossy.
Q: What color are the sides? Can u use this as a stand alone range?
A: Hi Jkirk - The Matte White range has dark gray case sides, and Brushed Bronze handles and knobs. This range can be installed as a stand alone range in a standard 30" free-standing range cutout.

Q: Can I get silver handles instead of gold
A: This CES700P4MW2 model comes with a Matte White finish and Brushed Bronze hardware. However, an optional Brushed Stainless handle kit is available to be purchased separately. It is model number CXFCEHKPMSS and can be purchased on the Best Buy website, on our GE Appliances Parts website or by calling our parts team at 1-877-959-8688 M-F 9AM-7PM EST.
A: Yes there is a digital keypad for oven temps and other baking options. I’ve had this stove since March (about 7 months) and I have very few complaints about it. I struggle with eye problems so I would have liked a bigger and brighter control pad. I have never had the control pad lock up or freeze. The oven is controlled by a keypad, but the oven light is a knob. I am a gourmet cook and cook nearly every night from scratch. What I like most about the stove is the cooktop that has good, even heat for simmering sauces. I was very skeptical about the stove, but I don’t regret my purchase. I have not connected to my phone to enable special features. Not sure if I want to be bothered by another feature that may become an annoying reminder.
Q: DOES ONE HAVE TO USE THE DRAWER AS A WARMING DRAWER.? WHAT TEMP IS IT THANK YOU
A: Hello - We appreciate your interest in this beautiful range with a warming drawer. The warming drawer cannot be used for cooking. It is designed to keep your food warm. The approximate temperature range is the following: Lo 140 - 170° F; Medium (mid position on the knob) 170 - 210° F; Hi 215 - 250° F. We hope this helps. Please let us know if you have additional questions. Thanks for choosing Cafe appliances! Olga@Cafe
A: Hello - We are sorry to hear that the enamel on the bottom of the oven bubbled up and has peeled off. We recommend taking advantage of your warranty by scheduling a service appointment with an authorized GE Appliance technician by calling 1-800-432-2737. We apologize for any inconvenience it has caused. Olga@Cafe

This Café electric convection range CES700P2MS1 was a great replacement to our 15 year old GE Profile convection range. We now have the added feature of wifi connection which has worked flawlessly since setting up. First update provided controls for air frying. Love the front control, heavy feeling knobs, and everything heating up quickly. We added the optional stainless steel filler kit JXFILLR1SS to keep things from falling down the cracks and to protect the glass edge. Looking forward to using the Chef Connect feature when the Café microwave CVM521P2MS1 gets installed later this month.

Love my new oven. Heats evenly and has many settings which is easy to use. Elements on top work great and have had no issues so far. Only drawback is my belly always hits the touch screen but it's really not a big deal. I enjoy that it connects to my phone also. Its such an elegant looking piece!

I have been using my new Cafe' range for almost six weeks thus far and am very pleased. The reason for only 4 stars is the lack of instructions on using the Power Boil burner. (And contrary to GE's answer to my question about it, detailed instructions are not on page 8, or elsewhere, in the self-printed manual.) Also, it is not made clear that to access the ability to Air Fry, one must connect via WiFi for an update for that feature. Once I figured that out, I have found the Air Fry feature works well. I was fortunate to find a very good sale on this range; otherwise, I probably would not have bought such an expensive range. GE's "Guaranteed to Fit" offers to reimburse up to $300 for any modifications needed to make it fit. It was necessary to have my solid surface countertop modified. I have sent in my paperwork, but so far I have heard nothing from GE after almost six weeks.
