I have always been impressed with LG appliances and have used them for many years. These appliances include Dishwasher, Refrigerator, Electric Smooth Top Range and few televisions. The LG Range that I purchased, replaced the older LG Range. From the standpoint of technology, I like the advanced features; however, the smooth top surface of this new range leaves spots that are harder to clean. This design needs to be improved for future models.
