Product review (4 stars): GE cafe electric range
I bought this stove nearly 3 years ago. So far I've been pretty pleased. It looks nice and works well for me. I bake a lot and generally just use the regular bake function. The 3 racks are very helpful. I don't have much experience with a convection oven and only use it if I need to dry something out or brown something quickly. The lower oven takes a while to heat up but is convenient if you need to keep something warm when cooking a big dinner. Or if you have a bit of time and don't really want to watch whatever's warming. I just throw whatever I want warmed up in the oven without preheating it and let it slowly warm. My biggest complaint is the metal piece above the knobs in front of the glass plate because it scratches, and also food and dirt tends to accumulate in between the metal and the glass and it's not easy to clean. Also, I'm not sure but I think the oven is getting nosier when it heats up. I can hear a fan or something going that sounds uneven. I will be phoning GE about this. All in all I am happy with the range. I would recommend the extended warranty because it is a pretty pricey item and from my research quality seems to be unreliable.
