KitchenAid - 6.4 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Slide-In Electric Convection Range - Stainless steel

This range was the last item I needed to complete my KitchenAid kitchen. It boils water so fast, and the even heat feature is amazing. I couldn't be happier with it. The convection feature works like a champ, and is by far the nicest range I've ever owned. There really isn't anything I don't like about it except for one thing- It requires a cleaning after every use. I'm sure that every glass top range is like that so I'm not too hung up about it. I had to re-learn how to cook on it, as the temps on the burners are really hot. I never really turn it past medium low unless I'm boiling something. They heat really fast! Whenever I have company over, I get so many compliments on my kitchen, especially the range. You will not be disappointed, just be ready and willing to clean it after each use. I hope this review helps! I have the range, dishwasher, over the range microwave, and french door refrigerator, and they are all top notch quality.

Pros - Appearance and Warms/Preheats quickly Cons - There should be a hot indicator light also on the display, the warming quality feels cheap, and not as easy to clean the cooktop as expected. My biggest regret with this range is that I should have paid to have a gas line installed. I have never cooked with an electric range before so this is all new to me. We expected cleanup to be easier but the cooktop is not just as easy as a wipe up and we are terrified to scratch the surface. We do really like the overall appearance and placement of the display. I should have waited until after Thanksgiving to review, as we host every year and have only had this range less than 6 months. First, I would not recommend electric to anyone but if that was their only option, just based on appearance, I would recommend this range.

Beautiful range, BUT....a tremendous amount of heat vented out the front of the range above the oven door while baking, very little warm air came out of the vents at the back of the range. Trying to cook and bake at the same time would have been very uncomfortable. Also, the front of the stainless control panel (the 3-4inch piece above the oven) was VERY hot to the touch. I returned the Kitchen Aid to Best Buy and exchanged it for an LG. All of the vented heat comes out of the back on the LG, the front stays cool. Best Buy was great to work with!

Looks very nice in my kitchen. The stovetop works great, with many different burner choices. So far everything works as promised. The drawer below the oven is cheaply designed. It almost seems to be an afterthought. The convection oven use is a little different than my old Kitchen Aid, it just takes some getting used to. Also the oven takes quite a bit longer to preheat, but remember it is larger than most ovens. Once ready, it cooks very well. For this reason and If you mainly cook smaller portions, I would look for something smaller in the oven arena.

This range/stove is very nice. Very slick appearance. The burners are nice - get very hot and the heat is very stable. Boil a giant pot of water in just a few minutes. I have two issues with this product. The first is that the oven takes FOREVER to pre-heat. When shopping we were comparing with ovens that boasted 7 minute pre-heat. This can take 30 minutes. Very disappointing. Once it's hot, it's very consistent. The other thing is that it's missing a lot of the "fancy" features other stoves have. We opted for reliability over the bells and whistles and looks like it was a good decision.

Really love the look of the black stainless but was told by my Best Buy salesmen that the KitchenAid product was better. It’s not! It’s still just a coating and scratches like a scratch off ticket. Very disappointed since I purchased both the dishwasher and range. Also my glass top has very fine scratches already and I had a cheaper Whirlpool range for years and never had a scratch on the glass top.

I very much like my range . this is my first convection oven as well as my first ceramic stove top so a little nervous at first. However the stove gives simple easy promts to follow which has resulted in wonderful outcomes for the recipes and my workload is much less. The only downside is my range came damaged on one side and the oven lights went out within the first 24 hrs.this is the only reason I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5. But the geeksquad went to work and checked everything out replaced the lights andare continuing to work with me to make sure I am satisfied. So over all I am extremly happy with my purchase

Oven is a beauty in kitchen. So far like how it cooks a lot. It took 4 ovens though for KA to get it right. If you buy one, be sure to inspect door closely, there was always an issue with it being crooked. If you have the Geek Squad protection, which I suggest on this big of an item, they are awesome about exchanging it until it's right. Still would recommend but with above warning to get the GS protection.
