I purchased this oven for my first home and it fits right in. Easy to use and the baking is good. I was skeptical being as though its electric but it gets the job done!

So far it is exactly what I expected. As others have mentioned the glass top is hard to clean, but I can live with that. Good capacity, I enjoy tje quick bake feature, cooks evenly. Burners heat up quickly. Good looking range, love the big window.

I love the way this stove looks! It even cooks great! I like the 5th burner to keep pots warm and have used the quick boil feature. HOWEVER if you are a heavy duty chef, you will be disappointed with this smooth top. You can't slide or drag or anything with this glass top. Because this top is all black, you see everything. Every mark, every metal residue from pots and pans, every food drip, water drop, etc. The top is like a finish on a black car, you see everything! The regular cleaner for the smooth top doesn't work or take the metal marks off. The best thing that works for me is the Magic Erase pads. I'm not sure how or why but they do the best. There's already very fine scratches on the top and it's only 2 months old. I cook maybe once per day, but if you cook every meal and use heavy duty pans this isn't the right stove for you. Maybe the gas version would be better. Also, if you drop salt or any course seasoning, you have to be extra careful because that will scratch too. As I mentioned, I like the stove and it's look, and don't mind cleaning the top every day and being careful when I cook. I had a MagicChef for 22 years and never had this problem but the stove had a gray design pattern on the top so any marks wouldn't be seen. I believe that the same manufacturer makes all the smooth tops, just look at the different patterns before you choose a new stop. I hope this helps folks, I wish someone had mentioned it when I was looking at the online. I also purchase the regular microwave, not the gallery version of this line. Love the smudge proof feature on the stainless. The stove and microwave were an excellent price before the holidays sales came out and I still haven't seen the prices I paid, so I'm okay with keeping the stove.

The stainless steel not only looks great, but the range performs beautifully! I love the option of baking with the convection oven for even heating and quicker bake times. At first I was worried about keeping the cooktop clean, but I find it has gotten easier to clean it after the first few times. I use Cerama Bryte for the cooktop. I have also used Ecosentual cooktop cleaner, but it doesn't budge anything that's burnt on.

Great range. The cook top is easy to clean and maintain. The stove works wonderfully. What else is there to say? It is freestanding range. Well worth the money. We're not crazy about the storage drawer at the bottom. Like other brands, they should have offered this with two oven doors - a top and a bottom - instead of the flimsy drawer. Really, the bottom drawer should be better quality for this price range! Hey, it matched our other Frigidaire Gallery pieces and we are satisfied with all of our Frigidaire products so far (We have been Frigidaire Gallery product owners for about 5 years now).

The product works as expected....one kind warning tho- my wife thought she was protecting our unused stove and put tin foil on the bottom... Don't ever do this in a modern oven! She preheated the oven and the foil literally melted to the bottom pan of our brand new oven. It is impossible to remove. This lower panel is sold separately for $130 and is held in with 2 screws The manufacturer says this happens all the time. It does mention this if you read the manual. Don't do it!

I have always heard that convection is great. I am still in the learning curve of how to use it right. I actually made dinner last night in about 20 minutes so it is definitely a time saver. I will have to reteach the kids how to use it properly since the 1st time I used it I couldn't get it to work and thought it was broken. That was just user error...lol. The only downside is the drawer on the bottom is smaller than my old one.

We've had our new stove for around a month and use it daily -- all day long, really. We wanted a new stove for under $1000, but with several features, including a fast boil range burner. I researched brands and features before selecting this brand and model. The brand has worked to improve its reliability, so much so that Consumer Reports ranked this model as one of the best available in the price range. The oven interior is bigger than we had on a stove with the same external measurements. The cooktop is no more prone to scratching or staining than our previous cooktop -- it still looks new and is easy to care for. The fast boil range does boil water more quickly than our old stove, which I love. The controls are easy to use. Both the range and the oven heat quickly and evenly. The unit looks great in our kitchen, which has other stainless steel appliances. I would definitely buy this stove again.

I LOVE IT!!!! This is my first time ever buying such an important appliance. I am a professional baker and also love cooking to entertain. This is the best purchase I have ever made. It has been easy determining the convection settings and to use convection or regular oven. I have made a few errors but as with anything you have to learn how to adjust and make changes. Please read the manual when purchasing it. You have to take care of this product for it to last you years to come. I have cleaned out the cabinets and any pots or pans that can not be used on the top are gone. Clean it often to avoid build up and keep it looking new. Mine looks the same as it did the day they delivered it.

Convection Oven cooks better than regular baking

The cook top surface cooks well so far. Only had it for 3 weeks. The cooktop surface is hard to get cooked on stains cleaned off of it and scratches easily. I use the cook top cleaner (like a car wax) for "cooked on" messes and just for smudges, and day to day NOT "cooked on" messes, I use glass cleaner (windex like cleaner) The regular oven mode burns everything on the bottom that I bake, but when I use convection, it cooks evenly and does not burn on the bottom. And yes, I do preheat oven as per instructions before every use! A flaw that Frigidaire needs to fix.

I am so glad I did my homework on this purchase. I was replacing an old Roper stove and did an extraordinary amount of investigation before purchasing this and my Gallery refrigerator, both at Best Buy. This range is awesome, the two front burners have the ability to act in quick boil mode with quick boil being on the right side of the dial and "regular" stovetop mode on the left side of the dial. the oven is really large and convection mode cooks as promised. The only downside is the glass top needs attention after almost every use but really, use a great glass top cleaner (cerama brite from Amazon with scrubber and scrapper for $8.99) and it looks brand new! I LOVE this and so happy with my purchase.

It has a lot of great features with warming burner and the convection oven. It's easy to keep clean with the glass top and the stainless steel that doesn't show fingure prints easyly.

Seems to be working as advertised, although we have only used it less than one month. We opted for this model based on positive reviews and features vs. cost. We have one complaint, however. There are some specs inside the glass window to the oven. At first, I thought it was a smudge of some kind or dirt. However, wiping both the outside glass and inside revealed the specs were inside the glass. Not good. It is not a deal breaker, per se, so we will keep the unit. We do plan on pursuing this issue with Frigidaire.

Never having a smooth cook top before it works great. The cook top needs to be kept very clean so no debris gets cooked into the ceramic glass top.
The oven is great and quick bake chocolate chip cookies are fabulous!

I shopped around for a new range for quite a while. Big stores, smaller local market stores, they all had pretty much the same thing. This had everything I needed plus convection. I'm not much of a baker but a friend of mine is and told me to get it and she'll bake stuff for me. No brainer. I was told by every salesperson that convection is better for overall cooking (like a turkey) so again, I chose this one. I'm sure I'll be happy with my choice.
