My last GE Profile range was still working well (white, electric) when I replaced it, and I purchased it new in 1997 when I built my home, so it was doing well for 24 years+. I had to finally replace my dishwasher, so while I was at it, I replaced all the rest of my white kitchen appliances and changed over to stainless steel.  

I was torn whether to get a gas range (which I have wanted forever) or an induction range (electric, but much cleaner than gas). After researching, I decided to go with induction since the glasstop doesn't get hot to the touch, foods heat up much quicker than gas or standard coil electric, and it looks beautiful. It 'feels' high-end, and offers customizable brass or copper handles for an elegant look. I've used the oven and stove top and both have worked well. I highly recommend!
