I bought this KitchenAid stove as a partner to my KitchenAid refrigerator & dishwasher to complete a beautiful set. I thought the KitchenAid product should be the best, non-commercial brand there is, but unfortunately there are some short comings.
First, they piece is beautiful!! 5-burners, 2 ovens, stainless beauty! I was is kitchen heaven. Until I tried to clean the stove. The stainless scratches so easily, and no matter how careful I am, it is constantly being scratched. The grates are so heavy, and due to the way they lock together on the range, they scratch the top of the stove every single time I take them off & on, and believe me -- I am ridiculously careful. Burned food does not come off of the top, and burn marks have remained on my stove since day one.
The top oven is too shallow for any kind of roasting pan. Also, when you slide out the shelf in the top oven, it lays on the door, and slides/scratches the oven door.
The broiler is ONLY in the top oven, so you can NEVER broil a large pot or pan. This is very impractical.
The lower over is very very low. You need to bend, and picking up any heavy pot from the lower oven is difficult as it is a deep bend to the floor.
The stovetop burners are not large enough for large pots. If there is a large pot on one burner, you can't use the other burner. And the pots do not sit centered on the burner...especially the back burners. They sit too closely to the back of the range.
All in all, this is a poorly designed range/oven, and very very impractical for someone who loves to cook, bake, and spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I would never recommend this oven to anyone!! And I would look for a different brand, as I am not impressed. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
