Product review (2 stars): Has issues
Some things are great, that 400-18,000 btu burner is brilliant, no more burned sauces. However, installation is a nightmare. We did it ourselves and that was a big mistake.
1)You are not supposed to lift it by the cook top but there is NO other place to grab it. The instructions say to take the door off and lift it from the inside of the oven but how can you lift a HEAVY stove that way? Whoever designed this has never done an installation.
2)We have a standard cabinet depth and counter top. The stove hits the gas line which is coming up through the floor about 1/2 inch away from the wall and so it doesn't quite slide in all the way. What were the engineers thinking? They couldn't have left 1 inch of space? Half-way up the stove it is 3+ inches away from the wall. Similarly, because is goes back so far on the bottom end, there is not enough room for the corrugated gas tube to fold up. Again very, very poor design with no idea of reality. Every stove has 3+ feet of this flexible tube that needs to go somewhere when the stove slides in.
Next: try to adjust the front feet. Again with a standard height counter top, there is not enough room to get a wrench or even needle nose pliers in there. You have to slide out the stove, lift it up by the front (it is HEAVY) and turn the feet, then slide it back in (this is because it is a slide-in stove, if you lift it up the back of the top plate will rest on the counter top and it bends or damage the countertop).
The unit looks OK from the front but on the sides where it sticks out from the cabinets, it doesn't look good at all, lots of holes, seams, a flimsy metal piece, just not looking good.
It does function well so far (2 months), oven features are great, top grate is excellent, it is easy to clean (unlike the Kenmore slide-ins, those only look good in the store. Go to a scratch-and-dent place and look at a used one, you'll know what I'm talking about).
For sure, have it installed when you buy it and do not give up until everything is perfect. Tip the installers well because they are not going to be happy with this thing.
