Samsung NE59J7850WS

Top Pro

Very good for multitasking

The 5.9 cu-ft. oven can be transformed into two separate ovens (a large one and a small one) just by sliding in a partition. This allows you to broil and bake different things at the same time. You can safely cook meat in one part while baking cookies in the second one, without worrying that the smells and flavors will mix. Same goes for the door, you can either open the whole door or just the top part of it. See More

Top Con

Badly designed controls

The knob for the tri-ring burner has too many positions, making it confusing to use. See More

Specs

Top Pro

Uses convection

There are two convection fans in the oven, one for each of the separable zones. However, only the lower fan has a heating element. See More

Top Pro

Flexible cooktop

The electric cooktop has five burners: a tri-ring burner, three standard burners, and a warming zone. Two of the standard burners can be bridged for large items. The tri-ring burner includes a rapid boiling feature. See More

Top Pro

Can clean itself

It has two cleaning modes: steam clean for gentle cleaning, and pyrolytic clean for deep cleaning. See More

Top Pro

Can keep your food warm

There is a warming drawer below the oven, something rare for a double-oven range. See More

Top Pro

Can be used for some extra cooking tasks

This unit is prepared to be used for some extra cooking tasks, such as bread proofing, dehydrating, or slow cooking. See More

Kenmore 95073

Top Pro

Automatically converts cooking temperatures

The range automatically lowers the cooking temperatures when convection heating is used. See More

Top Con

You can't control the warming drawer's temperature

The warming drawers temperature can’t be changed nor can it be turned off. See More

Specs

Top Pro

Elegant handy LCD displays

Instead of marked levels around the control knob, this unit has LCDs on top of the knobs. This is a more elegant and convenient way to display the power levels. See More

Top Con

No steam cleaning

This range only has a pyrolytic self-cleaning option. While pyrolytic cleaning is very effective, it isn’t recommended to use it too often, as it is harsh to the range itself. See More

Top Pro

You can keep your food warm using the warming drawer

You can keep your already cooked food warm by storing it in the oven's warming drawer, while rest of the food finishes cooking. See More

Top Con

Hard to find the right cookware position

It’s hard to line up cookware on the cooktop, since what marks the area where they should go are gray ‘X’ marks, which aren’t convenient at all. See More

Top Pro

Has true convection

The convection fan has a heating element that provides more even temperatures and more efficient cooking compared to convection units that don't have such an element. See More

Top Con

Not compatible with all cookware

Induction technology will not work with all cookware. You may have to change some of your pans and pots. See More

Top Pro

Broiler distributes heat evenly

Since it provides a uniform heat distribution, when cooking with the broiler you can be sure that you will not end up with half of your food overcooked and the other half undercooked. See More

Top Con

Uneven baking performance

The oven provides mixed results when baking. While it can bake large items, such as cakes, almost perfectly, it tends to burn thin items. When baking cookies, they come out uneven, indicating that heat isn’t distributed evenly. See More

Top Pro

Rapid preheating

The oven and broiler preheat very quickly. For convection roasting, it doesn’t even need any preheating. Just put the meat in, and you are ready to go. See More

Top Con

Broiling is slow

The broiler gives very good results, but the process is too time-consuming. See More

Top Pro

Can store frequently used settings

The range has an option to save commonly used temperature and time settings, so you don’t need to set them up all the time. See More

Top Con

Controls are awkwardly placed

The control panel and knobs are located at the back of the cooktop, so you have to reach your hands over pans and pots when you want to access them. See More

Top Pro

Can temporarily boost heating power

If you need to get something hot quickly, there is a boost function that provides extra power for 10 minutes. See More

Top Pro

No direct heating of the cooktop surface

The cooktop of this range uses induction heating technology. The inductive coils heat up cookware without providing direct heat to the surface. After removing a pot or a pan, the surface will be warm due to the contact with hot cookware, but it will cool down quickly. See More

Top Pro

Indicates hot surfaces

Each induction heater has an indicator that informs you whether the heating surface is hot or not. See More

Top Pro

Has a Sabbath mode

The range has a built-in Sabbath mode that allows it to be used during the Sabbath and Jewish holidays without breaking the traditions. See More

Top Pro

Super-fast boiling

The two front elements can boil water faster than practically any electric or gas cooktop. They can boil 1.5 liters of water in only three minutes, which makes this range perfect for cooking pasta or blanching vegetables quickly. See More
