Product review (2 stars): GE CAFE SERIES RANGE PROBLEMS
Looks are not everything.  Thank God we don't cook on this thing daily..... (Replacement knobs get expensive)

The next time we go looking for a range, believe me I'm taking the time to investigate every review out  there..... Sorry GE this range is not so "hot".
The Oven Temperature is off by about 20 degrees.... Sure easy enough call a service guy !!..... Really ?

Next thing we know the Burner Control Knobs start breaking (GE # 222D1387) Cheaply made ABS Plastic that has been Chrome plated & burnished to look like Brushed Stainless Steel.
These Knobs have the usual "D" in them and the stress point is right where the flat intersects the radius. They crack here and soon become unserviceable.
I have put a couple of pieces of Heat shrink tubing over this "stress spot" and it seems to hold together OK.
Since we are not cooking daily on this thing a patch should suffice (long enough to sell the range along with the house).

Maybe GE has addressed this problem, maybe not...So If you are out there looking at Ranges,  Read the Reviews, and TRY THE KNOBS  !! .....Go ahead .... Try to break one in the show room.... (If it is one of these ranges it won't be hard to do)
You could be doing yourself and someone else a favor by exposing this fault.

You have to believe that GE could come up with a Knob that works for an appliances "life time" (they used to and that often was the customers life time as well).  GE.... Bring back the quality....
Come on GE we really want you to be better than this...

Disappointed Customer / Stockholder / American.
