Since we needed to buy a refrigerator, we went ahead and bought a matching stove. Boy, it is nice to have such clean appliances. We bought this house with the old ones and since we bought the new ones, our kitchen is freshed up very nice!! I am still learning the tricks in using the stove, but it is nice that everything on it works!! I love to bake and my husband loves to cook, so this stove will be used a lot!!
