“Style is important and electric ranges are more attractive.”

The ceramic top range looks beautiful in the kitchen. It's a snap to clean because there are no burners or drip pans to deal with.

“Electric All The Way”

The difference is that electric heats up QUICKER and reaches HIGHER temperatures. They look better too.

“Excellent service always”

After purchasing a new Kenmore Elite range this year, we have been extremely happy with our decision.  This has been by far the easiest range we have ever purchased to operate and clean. I highly recommend Kenmore.

“Gas ovens cook more evenly, in my opinion!”

I grew up using gas ovens/stoves. During my young adulthood I was forced to use Electric ranges/ovens and it as difficult to get the food to cook evenly. I now own my own home and purchased a gas oven/stove and it works great. No burnt bottom of food while still frozen in middle.

“Like dual fuel, gas top and electric oven”

Reference: GE Profile Double Oven-Duel Fuel Convection. Model J2B918SEK1SS.

When it came time to replace our electric stand alone oven with cook top, duel fuel was the choice.  I can say with assurance that  I have not been disappointed. It is definitely the way to go.

Instant gas BTU cooking surfaces is good, and a convectioin oven is great in use.  Unit has been reliable with no issue to date. 

Cook surface, as with all gas tops, requires regular cleaning to maintain neat look. Grates are easily moved and replaced for cleaning. 

I would recommend.
