A:AnswerWe've baked a 28 lb whole turkey plus pan and rack in the bottom oven (has pullout racks) and smaller sized birds (whole or breast) in the top oven simultaneously. This was much easier than a single drawer oven. The dual ovens allowed for separate heating/cook times more efficiently than the single drawer stoves.
A:AnswerThe only difference i see is that the LDE4415 has an infra-red broiler in the top oven that makes the food taste like it was done on an outside grill. I bought the LDE4415 and love it so far! It does take some getting used to though. I have noticed that the ovens preheat a lot faster than my last oven.
A:AnswerYou don't. Consumer Reports has tons of people complaining that it got bumped and filled their house with gas. I have the electric model and its the same, only with less deadly consequences.
A:AnswerYes, the lock controls the burners as well as the oven doors. You hold the lock button for three seconds and then everything goes into lock mode. It takes about 15-30 seconds for the oven doors to lock. The burner knobs are almost instant. At least that's how it works on the model we purchased.
A:AnswerThe size of breaker required for the LG 7.3 cu. ft. Electric Double Oven Range with ProBake Convection®, EasyClean® and Infrared Heating™ System, Model # LDE4415ST will depend on the size of the wire and the type of insulation on the wire if a new circuit breaker is to be installed for a range on an existing circuit. The range circuits in many older homes were wired with 8-gauge wire and older wiring including sheathed cable wiring was rated at 60 degrees Celsius. According to National Electrical Code (NEC) table 310-16, 8-gauge wiring rated at 60 C may carry up to 40 amperes of current. The circuit breaker for that type of wiring must not be greater than 40 amperes. Modern ranges are capable of using more than 40 amperes of current, which was the older standard for electric ovens and ranges. Most new residential house wiring uses sheathed cable with insulation rated at 90 degrees Celsius. The NEC also specifies that sheathed cable must use the 60-degree rating for wire ampacity, regardless of of the insulation rating. Since modern electric ovens and ranges can use more than 40 amperes, the next size wire must be used, which is 6-gauge wire. Six-gauge sheathed cable may carry up to 55 amperes, which dictates the maximum circuit breaker size. Since the electric oven and range don't require that much current, 50-ampere breakers are the norm. The owner's manual for the LDE4415ST states that the LDE4415ST requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208 V or 120/240 V 60 Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL - listed range cord with closed-loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned ends or similar termination. Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. A range cord rated at 40 amps with 120/208 or 120/240 minimum volt range is required. If a 50 amp range cord is used, it should be marked for use with 13/8" diameter connection openings. This appliance may be connected by means of a conduit or power cord. The range rating in watts at 208V is 11.6 kW and at 240V it is 15.5 kW so if you are using a 3-wire power supply cord, the specified rating of the power supply cord can be either 40 or 50A...^IFV
A:AnswerHonestly, I have all-stainless steel appliances now and cleaning is not that difficult. I do not use any specialized product; clean them with a damp cloth and some detergent, then simply pass a cloth SLIGHTLY oily. Any cooking oil will do, but you can also use furniture cleaning products like Orange-Glo (don't exaggerate). May seem absurd, but try it and you'll see it for yourself. Also, once treated like that the surface remains finger streak-free for 1-2 weeks.
A:AnswerThere are 9" from the heating element to the bottom rack. Note: You can put the top rack in the bottom track and get about another inch if need more space. The (normal) bottom rack has tracks so it can slide out for easier access the top rack does not giving you more room not taken up by the built in track of the bottom rack. Hope that helps.
A:AnswerWe are not clear on if the "wire size" that you are inquiring about for the LG - 7.3 Cu. Ft. Electric Self-Cleaning Freestanding Double Oven Range with ProBake Convection - Stainless Steel, Model # LDE4415ST is the wire for conduit connections or if you are referring to the power cord. This appliance must be installed and grounded on a branch circuit by a qualified technician in accordance with the National Electrical code ANSI/NFPA NO. 70 - latest edition and all wiring should conform to Local and NEC codes. This range requires a single-phase, 3 wire, A.C 120/208 V or 120/240 V 60 Hz electrical system. Use only a 3-conductor or a 4-conductor UL - listed range cord with closed-loop terminals, open-end spade lugs with upturned ends or similar termination. Do not install the power cord without a strain relief. A range cord rated at 40 amps with 120/208 or 120/240 minimum volt range is required. If a 50 amp range cord is used, it should be marked for use with 1/3/8" diameter connection openings. This appliance may be connected by means of a conduit or power cord. If a conduit is being used, if the wire in the conduit is copper it must be 8 or 10 AWG wiring. If the wire in the conduit is aluminum it must be 6 or 8 AWG wiring...^IFV
A:AnswerThe Pizza function is specially designed for cooking pizza. It heats from both the top and bottom to brown food more evenly. This system is designed to give the optimum cooking performance for pizza by automatically selecting a combination of the broil and bake heating systems. When using this function, there is no need to preheat the oven prior to cooking. ^CP
