Product review (1 stars): Unreliable, dangerous
I bought this range less than three years ago after reading several reviews to find the best range in my price range. (It replaced a Kenmore that worked well for over 30 years but was not good at simmering on low heat.) The range has been a disappointment. The burners are slow to light and they constantly need adjusting. The oven (which I rarely use) is the worst disappointment. A month ago, the oven igniter went out; that cost $200 to repair. A few nights ago, I turned on the broiler for the first time ever,  and after a minute or so, something popped--enough to force the oven door open several inches--with me standing right in front of it. Tonight, I tried to start the oven; this time the popping seemed to come from the panel. It popped again, and the readout panel went dark. I reset the house circuit breaker, but the stove would not come on. None of the electrics now work, including, of course, the igniters. I will not repair this range. I will replace it, but not with a Hotpoint and not with a GE.
