I just installed this stove last Monday and I'm quite impressed. The burners are way hotter then I've experienced in the past so there's a bit of a learning curve. The 3-in-1 burner was perfect for making Pad Thai in a Calphelon Paella pan (12" dia. bottom). Heat was even across the whole pan and it regulated well.
I'm big on using Convection Roast by readjusting the heat down and using the original cook times. It worked as expected. The convection fan is NOT noisy, but it will run at different speeds depending on the mode of convection you use as stated in the directions. It also heats up fast,...read full review »
I purchased this oven 4/2008. Preheat takes 20 min to come to 350 temp. The fan on convection oven runs slow and then fast. with a clunking noise. Repair has been out twice with no solution. Convection bake is slower than regular bake. I would not recommend this oven. I am very disappoited.
I love my new stove. We had ours installed 3 weeks ago and I have been using it a lot. Everything heats up quickly. The convection fans run quietly and food cooks evenly. We were amazed at how soft and tender the meat cooks in the oven and cookies turn out perfectly. The top heats up quickly and the rest of the glass top stays cool. I have two cats and love that I can lock the cook top so if one sneaks up there she cannot accidentally turn on the stovetop and burn her paws or the house down.
I would definitely buy this stove again.
Heats up fast. I have never cooked on a glass top, but I like it a lot better than the coil cooking. I like the fact that everything locks. the stove top controls, and the oven. Cleans up better than expected. Quick and even cooking. Ok substitute for not having gas. I love the convection. Cooks things crispy and juicy.
We Installed this Range in May 2008 and the Electrical panel has already went out of it and is going to cost us $500 to fix!! The oven takes forever to pre heat, the racks inside dont even fit corretly they are slightly narrower than the oven so they always fall down. I would Never Buy Kenmore again... We have also had bad luck with the Kenmore Front loading Washer and Elite Dishwasher ..
