A:AnswerHi - Great question! This range's overall depth, 29 1/4", includes the handles. The depth without the handles is 26 3/4". The depth with the doors opened is 43 1/2". We hope that this helps. Let us know if any other questions come up. Thanks so much for considering GE Appliances. -Mikayla@GEA
A:AnswerHey there, thanks for reaching out to us. The lower oven will hold a turkey that is about 20 pounds. If you need anything else from us, we're always here to help. - Guy@GEA
A:AnswerHey there- great question! These cooktop grates can be cleaned one of two ways - either in the dishwasher, or on the bottom of a self-clean oven. Wash the griddle with dish soap and hot water. We hope that this helps. Let us know if any other questions come up. -Mikayla@GEA
A:AnswerHi - The upper oven heats using a gas bake burner which is positioned below the floor of the upper oven. It also offers a low wattage heating element to aid in top browning. We appreciate your interest in this beautiful feature-packed range! Vikki@GEA
A:AnswerHi there, and thanks for taking the time to reach out to us about this double-oven range. We certainly appreciate your interest. The Broil feature is available in the lower oven. Both Hi and Lo options are available for that mode, and further details on the Broil feature are available on page 14 of the manual. We regret any inconvenience caused by the upper oven not having this feature; we will certainly send feedback to our Cooking Products Design team. If you have any other questions or concerns, we're always glad to help. Wishing you all the best! -Sarah@GEA
A:AnswerHello CAE,
Great question! We appreciate your interest in GE Appliances, and we'd be happy to assist you with this range. We do apologize for this detail not being included in features. We know how stressful it can be browsing appliances and not knowing every feature. We found that this oven does not come equipped with a temperature probe. There is not a probe manufactured specifically for this model either. This allows the owner to purchase a thermometer or probe of their choice.
We thank you again for your interest in GE Appliances, and we hope this is helpful. If any more questions should arise, please contact us through our website or social media.
Take care!

A:AnswerHi - Thanks for considering GE Model JGBS86SPSS! The Steam cycle helps hydrate food soils so that they are easier to wipe away. To remove any remaining stubborn, baked-on stains, apply a non-abrasive cleaner such as Bar Keepers Friend using a sponge or clean cloth. You can also use a mild soak and water or vinegar and water. Do not use oven cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, or scouring pads on the interior of the oven. Here's the link to the Use and Care Guide for complete details: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-2000715-1.pdf - If you have any additional questions, do not hesitate to ask, we are also happy to help at GEAppliances.com!

A:AnswerYes, this manual is available online. Please see page 11 to review calibration information in the manual for this model by visiting the product page, clicking on the “Features” tab and navigating to the “Manuals & Guides” section.
A:AnswerNo, there are two separate grills that cover the front and back burners on each side, with a separate griddle in the center. - Julia@GEAppliances
A:AnswerWe're glad you reached out. Please PM/DM us on Facebook/Instagram/X with a copy of your review, any service confirmation/case numbers you may have, and the complete model/serial numbers of your range so we can further investigate. -Don@GEAppliances
A:AnswerUsed the connector hose that came that said for dryer on it since it had the 1/2 inch fittings. Had PGE come and check everything and they said all is well. Dryer hose connector is not an issue. They tested gas pressure along with kicking on water heater at same time. All good.
A:AnswerWe encourage you to locate the Installation Instructions or the Specifications sheet that can be found under the Features tab to view the product diagram which shows the shaded area. This information is essential as the shaded area represents the location where the gas and electrical connection must be made to ensure proper operation and installation of this range. - Vikki@GEAppliances
A:AnswerThe griddle that comes with this range is a non-stick aluminum griddle. We also offer a reversible cast iron grill/griddle accessory - JXGRILL1 that is compatible with this model range. The other reversible grill/griddle accessory we offer is the JXGRILL2. It is not compatible with this model range. -Vikki@GEAppliances
A:AnswerThis JGBS86SPSS model is only available in a traditional stainless steel finish. We recommend checking out model GGF600AVWW, which comes in a white finish and can be found on the Best Buy website. Lauren@GEAppliances
A:AnswerI haven't used it yet, but according to the directions you pour water in an indention on the bottom. It heats up and steams the inside. Theoretically it should work.
