  • Key Specs
    • Color Finish: Black stainless steel
    • Product Height: 36 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 29 7/8 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Depth: 27 3/4 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)

    • Depth With Handle: 28 inches (Measurement from the back of the product to its front (with door closed), including the handle.)
    • Range Type: Freestanding (Freestanding ranges have finished sides and a backguard where the oven controls are located; this style allows for the most versatility in placement. Slide-in ranges may have unfinished sides and are wider at the top to overlap the countertop on each side, allowing for a built-in appearance. Drop-in ranges are also known for their built-in style and are designed to fit custom cabinetry or countertops.)
    • Oven Cleaning Method: Self-cleaning high heat (There are several ways to clean the inside of your oven. Depending on the model, it might require manual cleaning or have a self-clean function. Self-clean functions use either high heat or steam to break down grease and food debris within the cooking cavity.)
    • Single/Double Oven: Single Oven
    • Cooktop Surface Type: Smoothtop (On electric cooktops, coil elements are typically more durable and tend to provide more evenly conducted heat than smoothtops. However, smoothtops may be easier to clean and have a distinctive streamlined appearance.)
    • Number of Elements: 5
    • Induction: false (Induction cooktops use magnetic currents to heat compatible cookware directly instead of warming the cooktop itself, which can allow for faster and more efficient cooking. There is also an added safety benefit because the surface begins to cool when cookware is removed.)
    • App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)

Q: How does the Closed-door broiling feature maintain the optimal broiling temperature while keeping the kitchen comfortable?

A: The Closed-door broiling feature maintains the optimal broiling temperature by managing the broiling temperature, ensuring the kitchen remains comfortable during the cooking process. It achieves this by regulating the oven's heat levels and cycling the bake and broil elements or burners on and off in intervals.

Q: How does the large oven window enhance the user experience during cooking, and what are some advantages of having a larger window?

A: The large oven window allows users to easily monitor their food while it cooks, eliminating the need to open the oven door and potentially disrupting the cooking process. This helps maintain the optimal cooking temperature and ensures consistent results. Additionally, the larger window provides a better view of the food, making it easier to check on its progress and avoid overcooking or undercooking.

Q: What is the purpose of the Keep Warm setting, and how does it help in keeping dishes warm without overcooking?

A: The Keep Warm setting in the Whirlpool 5.3 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Electric Range is designed to keep cooked dishes warm without overcooking them. It delivers low heat to the oven, maintaining a temperature of 170°F (75°C) to prevent food from getting cold. To use this feature, press the "KEEP WARM" button, and place the cooked food in the oven. The Keep Warm setting can be used for up to an hour, but it's recommended to cover the food to prevent it from drying out.

Q: How does the hidden bake element contribute to easier oven cleaning, and what are the benefits of having a hidden element?

A: The hidden bake element in the Whirlpool 5.3 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Electric Range contributes to easier oven cleaning by eliminating the need to clean around a traditional exposed element. Additionally, the hidden element helps to distribute heat more evenly, resulting in more consistent cooking.

Q: How does the adjustable self-cleaning technology work, and what are the advantages of using it over traditional cleaning methods?

A: The adjustable self-cleaning technology uses high temperatures to burn soil to a powdery ash, which can then be easily removed with a damp cloth. This method eliminates the need for harsh chemicals or special cleaners. Additionally, the self-cleaning cycle is adjustable between 2 hours 30 minutes and 4 hours 30 minutes, allowing users to customize the cleaning time based on the level of soil.

Q: What is the Control Lock mode, and how does it prevent unintended use of the range?

A: The Control Lock mode disables the control panel of the Whirlpool 5.3 Cu. Ft. Freestanding Electric Range to prevent unintended use. To activate it, press and hold the "CONTROL LOCK" button for 3 seconds. A tone will sound, and a lock icon will appear on the display. The control panel will be locked, and no keypads will function until the Control Lock mode is deactivated. To deactivate the Control Lock mode, repeat the same process of pressing and holding the "CONTROL LOCK" button for 3 seconds.

Q: What are the dimensions of this electric range (height, width, and depth), and does it fit standard kitchen counter heights?

A: The dimensions of the electric range are 36 inches in height, 29 7/8 inches in width, and 27 3/4 inches in depth. The cutout dimensions for installation are 36 inches in height, 30 inches in width, and 24 inches in depth. This range should fit standard kitchen counter heights, which are typically around 36 inches.

Q: What type of electrical outlet is required for this range, and what is the voltage it operates on?

A: This Whirlpool range requires a standard 120-volt electrical outlet.
