Asked 4 years ago by Bourbs.

Q: QuestionHow wide deep and tall is this unit

Asked 5 years ago by Victor.

• A:Answer Top Oven (1 rack) - interior 24.5"wide x 15"deep x 5"tall (center) or 7"tall (on sides)....due to broiler unit in middle of gas oven. Gas unit is on bottom of oven. Bottom Oven (2 racks, 1 with sliding mechanics...very nice feature) - 24.5"wide x 15"deep x 12" tall....if you change out the sliding rack from the bottom, you can probably get another 1" in height. Convection is in bottom oven on back wall of oven. Gas unit is on bottom of oven. Fits 30" opening in counter, no storage drawer. Since our gas line come out of the floor, our range doesn't sit flush against the wall...this is due to having a double oven. We will need to have our gas line moved to come out of the wall to resolve this issue. I assume this is a non-issue for an electric range. We have only had our range 1 week, still getting used to all the features. More space & different temps are great features!! WE ALL LOVE IT!!

Q: QuestionCan you fit a cookie sheet length wise under the broiler (to maximize broiling area)?

Asked 5 years ago by Anna.

• A:Answer No you cannot. The door won’t fully close. I love this range, but my only negative is the broiler that goes from the front to the back. I wish it was side to side like most ranges for easier broiling. With this oven you have to shift the pan several times during broiling.

Q: QuestionWe owned one of these at a previous house, and it had a burner that was hard to start and clicked while it tried to start. When it finally started it would roar up. We never were able to fix it. Is that a common problem?

Asked 6 years ago by Mark.

• A:Answer Hi Mark, it sounds like the old unit needed a service call for the ignition system, what you describe is not normal and you should not see any problems like it with any of our Ranges or Cooktops.
