GE - 4.4 Cu. Ft. Self-Cleaning Drop-In Electric Range - Black

Drop-in ranges are hard to find, so we were so happy to find this GE model. The look is simple and sleek, the eyes are sized for convenience--one small, two large, and one you can set either way. The glass top cleans easily, and the oven is spacious. So far, we haven't encountered any problems at all. Thanks, GE!

One issue I have observed is that when you open the oven door, to remove whatever you have been baking, there is a rush of hot air and steam that comes out and blasts you in the face. You need to remember to stand to the side whenever you open the door and the oven is hot. Also, even though we are careful when we cook on it and when we clean it, the top is already becomming etched and pitted.

We bought this drop in to replace the old GE drop in. Within 11 days the glass cracked! No, I did not drop anything or slide anything across the top causing the glass to crack. The glass top is thinner than the older models and apparently inferior. I now have to wait one month for a service rep to even come and look at it. I regret purchasing this range and if I had to do it over I would have purchased something else.

Everything worked perfectly right out of the box. Like the multiple choice burner(s) although having trouble managing the heat - they seem to get too hot at a lower number. We are being VERY careful of the glass surface to avoid scratching; some extra care required - no more sliding pans around, but keeping the top looking great is worth the trouble. The cooking "heat rings" mentioned by others disappear after buffing with a soft cotton cloth, after first using the special cleaner. The nice big oven with so many rack settings is excellent. The installer told us to not cool the oven with the door partly open or it could damage the electronics in the the control panel. And the control panel is a pain because it catches "stuff". Not easy to find drop-ins these days and this one is not cheap! But it looks fab and works great and is easier than re-doing the whole kitchen.

Very attractive, but the digital oven controls are complicated, and the controller images in the User Manual don't match the oven. Oven runs hotter than stated, so it needed to be adjusted. I had to clean up some boiled-over pudding on the stove top, and it was much harder to clean than I expected. I also needed to buy an online trim kit to cover the bottom gap of this drop-in.
