(More customer reviews)What a great looking unit -- too bad the sleek stainless steel outside hides a lousy inside!
My wife and I have been looking a more updated unit to replace our 15 year old electric range oven. We thought we found a unit that was both functional, sleek and useful. For the two months that the unit worked, it was actually a great range oven. We found ourselves using the upper oven (although smaller of the two) more than 95% of the time. It heated up quickly and baked evenly. The stove top is also designed thoughtfully and the control unit, while not as advanced as some other units, was very functional and surprisingly intuitive to use.
The unit broke down after just two months of use (bought on Sep 10, 2010 and broke on Nov 4, 2010). The unit shut down completely and when it re-powered, the "door locked" indicator was on. While the stove top was still functional, neither of the ovens were. The GE technician looked at the unit for about three minutes, ordered a bunch of parts and left. The follow up appointment was rescheduled by dispatch, without notification. GE Customer Service was useless (but at least they all spoke English). Now we're stuck without an oven for Thanksgiving holidays with family coming to town. Will call the store we bought the unit from and see if we can return it. Searching around there are more reports of control board circuit boards being "fried" by the oven, so this is not an isolated incident. Do not buy this unit until the problem is resolved.
