While most ovens have a heating element at the bottom, this oven has a heating element mounted at the rear that works together with a fan for true convection. This eliminates burnt bottoms when baking biscuits or cookies. Also, the convection allows you to cook meat with excellent results.

This is one of the largest single-oven consumer level ranges you can buy. It has a massive 6.3 cu.ft oven capacity and allows you to use three racks at once.

This range’s cooktop is large and versatile, with four burners of different sizes and heating capabilities. There is an oval burner in the middle that can be used with the included griddle or other types of long cookware.

The oven will let you know when it has reached the designated preheat setting, so you can place the food inside at the right moment and minimize energy waste.

This range has a timer that allows you to preset a time for cooking, so you can, for example, have hot food when you arrive home. You can also use it to schedule the self-cleaning modes.

The cooktop has an oval burner where an included griddle can be attached. It works well for cooking things like pancakes, eggs, or bacon.

The front right burner can quickly produce lots of heat, which is great for boiling water in almost no time at all.

Thanks to the continuous cast iron grates, it is very easy to move heavy cookware around the cooktop.

Since the broiler is not very hot or powerful, broiling doesn’t produce as much smoke as with some other ranges.

You can keep your already-cooked food warm while rest of the food finishes cooking.

The control panel’s display is clear and easy to understand. The responsiveness is also quite good.

The burner knobs are angled towards the user, making it easier to access them.

The range has two cleaning modes. Steam cleaning is meant for gentle cleaning that makes it easier to remove grease from the cavity. Pyrolytic cleaning, on the other hand, burns off tough stains, but this takes more time and is harsher to the oven.

Thanks to the efficient heating element and the well-insulated cavity, the oven preheats very quickly. It only takes about 8 minutes to reach 350 ºF, which is faster than other large ovens that usually need more than 10 minutes to reach the same temperature.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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