GE Consumer Products conducts product testing on all appliances we manufacture.

The country of origin is shown on the Model/Serial rating plate as well as the packaging. We can tell you that this is manufactured globally. We do have this available in Stainless Steel as well as Fingerprint Resistant Stainless. This model does come with a center grate and integrated grill/griddle. We hope this is helpful.

A:AnswerHello- Thanks so much for checking with us. We are happy to help! A backsplash is not offered for model PGS930. Optional JXFILLR1SS is available and only necessary if you want to cover the small gap on the sides or if you have a rough countertop cut you would like to cover. The front control design allows you to showcase a solid backsplash visual without being broken up by a control panel. Tile and glass art backsplashes are prevalent in every style of design, from subway tile to ornate glass mosaics. In addition, this design is ideal for consumers with a range located in an island. If you have any questions in the future, please let us know. We are happy to help! Joyce@GEA
A:AnswerThe representative is correct. It is a regular oven that is used for baking and broiling, and it is used for steam cleaning. NOTE: There is a mode button on the stove that you press to do these functions including steam cleaning. Follow instructions in the manual to put water in the oven to steam clean it. Again, the same oven area is used for baking, broiling, and steam cleaning. The bottom drawer is for storage. I was surprised also :)
A:AnswerThe range offers both options. The steam clean can be used for minor clean up, the high heat for tough dirt. We really enjoy this range, it has a lot of great features and the stainless steel top is also easier to keep clean than the black enamel our prior range had. Great purchase, even better with the microwave that allows you to use the chef connect feature.
A:AnswerYou can use your range without Wi-Fi. You won't be able to remotely control you unit, but you can still use the features. If you're using the Wi-Fi features and the Wi-Fi goes out, the oven will turn off. This is for safety, so the oven doesn't continue working remotely.
A:AnswerGo to GE appliances site and download the install detail for the unit. Also, if you are going to get it, download the user's manual - the unit doesn't come with one.
