Good basic stove at a good price

dawnhawk from Fairfield, IA

Spent months researching stoves and settled on this one. We were electric users for 25 years, but wanted to switch to gas because electrics put out such high levels electro magnetic radiation. Research is showing increasingly that this may be a health risk. A consumer magazine indicated that Hotpoint/GE, Frigidaire/Kenmore and Whirlpool were most reliable in that order. Didn't like the Hotpoint/GE because the burners are too big. Some of our pans are small and most of the heat would end up going around the pan instead of onto the bottom, a big waste of gas. Frigidaire/Kenmore and Whirlpool have smaller burners and we liked the simple clean styling of the Whirlpool best. Add to that the rock bottom price for a self-cleaning model and Whirlpool was the choice. So far we are happy with this stove. Seems well built and performs well. The oven is dead on for temperature. We like the simmer burner and the power burner that is still of a reasonable diameter. The universal silver color is clos … Read more

Mary Ellen from Skokie, IL

Everything I've baked in the oven has come out perfectly. I didn't have to rotate the pan of cookies or lasagna casserole to get them evenly browned. The controls are very easy to use. Love the oven temperature read on top of the range and the alert to let me know the oven has reached the temperature I want. The auto on and auto off features for the oven are good to have. I like having a work area between the burners. A lot of newer ranges have grates across the entire top of the range and they're inconvenient for laying down spoons and spatulas. This range allows me to have a spoon rest on top of the stove, which I like. I cannot rate the broiler because I use my counter top Cuisinart Convection Oven/Toaster/Broiler for broiling meat.

Fortunately, Sears had this oven on sale and I bought it online. The online purchase was a mistake since I thought I had set up the conversion to propane gas along with the delivery but I found out later there was a problem with the website in getting this handled. I had to contact my propane gas company to send someone out 4 days after the oven was delivered but everything was taken care of fairly easily and inexpensively. In th … Read more

My new gas range

Ravis from Colorado Springs, CO

I agree with the previous people who reviewed their new range. It's perfect for me and probably the nicest range I've ever owned and yet, it's the least expensive. Nice job Whirlpool, I'm not going to get into the details because they are listed and everything works perfectly well on this range. I actually enjoy cooking on it and that probably says a lot coming from a single man. Read more
