Love the style
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the color and style of all of my new kitchen appliances. This one looks really sleek. The only drawback are the 2 heavy top grills. I wish it was a 3 section grill top so they were not so heavy.

    Excellent for baking
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to be a professional baker, and so my oven is a very important part of my kitchen. We chose the Kitchen Aid because we loved the way it looked and it had promising reviews. I love the convection baking feature, and have been so pleased by the way it works. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that the range top is hard to clean and scratches easily.

      Nice Design
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This range was on the floor because it was dented, but I knew I could hide it with magnets. After looking a long time I bought this because it would be the same depth as the cabinets and is flat on the top, which is hard to find. Overall, I am very satisfied. The two large burners are in the front and I can't simmer with them so I move the pan to the small back burner to simmer.

        Worked ok, until it didn't.
        Bought this range in April 2019. Front left burner wouldn't light regularly. Called repairman. Looked at it and told us to screw the burner caps down tight to get the gas to circulate properly, that this was a design flaw. Still only works intermittently. Have to use a lighter to ignite it. In November 2020, hinge on oven door started popping. Door wouldn't close properly. Oven wouldn't maintain heat and knobs getting extra hot (even more than they already did). Called repairman again. Told us we would need new hinges, seal around door, knobs and knob backsplash, (because heat had warped and wrinkled them). Waited for weeks. No parts available. Called store where we bought range. No parts available. No replacement available, either. Now, three months later, 4 of the 5 knobs have basically melted and warped so badly they fell off and are unusable. Temperature of the front of the range when we use the oven is 200F! Have to keep our grandkids out of the kitchen when we cook, so they don't get burned. Can't bake more than a frozen pizza because oven door doesn't close tightly, and the heat isn't consistent. Very disappointed! When it worked, it worked pretty well. Now we're stuck!

          EVEN COOKING!
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My new KitchenAid Gas Convection Range was the ONLY range that fit my needs as I love to cook and this range had all the features I was looking for. It has three "sturdy" grates, a middle burner for making a quick grilled sandwich, eggs, etc. The knobs are not "sticking out" to make it uncomfortable when passing by and so easy to turn on. It was well designed and I know I will have many years of enjoyment cooking on my new KitchenAid Range!

              Excellent Appliance
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product to replace my 2006 Kitchen Aid stove that had been the best stove I have ever own. There will never be but a Kitchen Aid in my kitchen. The features of the new stove are amazing and I’m sure will give us many years of service as the previous one.

                    Schick looking range albeit tad expensive
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the range for over 1month now and love it for its looks and performance. Like the design and the square cut/clean edges, looks very contemporary. The design is well thought as the 5th burner which I had in my previous range but was mostly unused because one couldn’t fit utensils on all the burners. Here, the designers have done a great job In spacing the burners apart. So that all the burners especially the 5th one is usable. One of the front burners is 18K BTU , which is awesome of that extra heat and quicker cooking. Like the all stainless steel look as well. It is priced a bit on the higher side though as in the end it is a functional cooking range.

                      Love my Gas Stove
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this in April and was delivered on the 22nd. I’m still waiting on the gas hookup connections- luckily our person who installed our stove already had the connectors. I love everything about this stove and would definitely recommend!!!

                        Nice stove but beware, cheap dials
                        Nice range even heat and quality cooktop grate. But the dials are garbage. The heat from the oven loosens the glue and they are falling apart after only a few months. Disappointing since the other hardware is solid.

                          Waited a long time and got my dream stove.
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love it. I’ve been wanting to get a new stove fit two years. I hated the black stove I had. It was impossible to keep it shiny. It was always streaky after cleaning.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works great easy to install the front of the over gets a little bit hot but its not a problem so far and a fan kicks on and blows hot air out the front under control panel when the broiler is on sill not a problem so far we love it

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Can’t really explain how I feel about my new range. The oven is what sold me. With three racks, I can now bake a whole batch of cookies at one time. And no more burnt ones.

                                    All Scratched Up!
                                    I got this stove Nov 2018 and noticed a few scratches with I decided to just put up with. But now, every time you take the grading off to clean it it get more and more scratched up. It looks awful. I am so careful removing and taking off the grading too. This is a real bad design and it aggravates me off that such a beautiful stove can be so poorly designed. Im embarrassed to have people over to see this.

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't know that shopping for a new range was going to be so much research. Things have changed since the last one we purchased. I wanted gas, white, needed a drawer for storage and absolutely had to have a time cook option. Most all ranges now have the five burners and grates across the top so I had to find the one that I thought was the best. This range has a huge oven, awesome BTUs, the top is white like the rest of the range, has the option to switch bake or convection, has the time cook option, a timer, and I just love everything about it.

                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was installed about a month ago to replace our electric. The wife and I both grew up with gas stoves and we wanted to get back to that. Our appliance store recommended this model with the stainless top and we couldn't be happier. Easy to use and clean with the Aqua Lift. Love the Convection. The 5 top burners give you a variety of options when cooking. Simply looks and works great!

Clean up is easy when using affresh stainless steel cleaner. To clean under the top grates you do have to wait for everything to cool completely.

                                                Works decently. Knobs are junk.
                                                I've had this for a couple of years. It gets pretty heavy, daily use with a family of 8 homeschooling 6 children. I agree with other reviewers that the self cleaning option is a laugh. We found the stainless top really easy to scratch, even when being meticulous. It's impossible for the grate to not eventually scratch it. Still, we like it. Our major beef is with the knobs. They are NOT metal. I thought they were originally. Alas, they are plastic coated with a combination of metallic looking paint (which is now bubbling on the knob and the cover underneath it) and a STICKER!!. The sticker is peeling off of all of the knobs. There is nothing wrong functionally but the sticker is what has the markings on it. It's a terribly cheap design. I'd rather have a cheap plastic knob that lasts then one that looks good for a year and then comes apart.

                                                    Cooks great, looks great!
                                                    We replaced all of our major appliances with Kitchenaid. The range was the appliance for me that sealed the deal. I love the cooktop and the large oven is performing far better than our previous Whirlpool oven ever did. My biggest gripes with the old range was that the burners never got hot enough, the top was rather hard to clean and the grates over the burners were next to impossible to keep clean without a wire brush and hours of elbow grease. And, the oven temperature was always at least 25°F cooler than the set temperature. I had to use an oven thermometer and adjust accordingly. The new range burners get plenty hot for me to use my wok again and so far, the top it a breeze to keep shiny. The oven -- i'm slow-roasting some pork ribs right now -- is dead on with the temperature. And it seems to preheat in half the time as the old one. This is a big step up for us. Pros: Just look at it, it's gorgeous! Flat cooking surface, 5 burners, convection oven. What's not to like? Cons: Okay, the storage drawer underneath is surprisingly 'rattly' and the control pad requires a good push to get them to register. Oh, and a word to the engineers the "Preheat Done, Insert Food" message is cute the first couple of times, but that's going to get old very fast.
