Kenmore  30'' Freestanding Gas Range

Bought this stove online and was pleased with the price, however the grates are steel with porcelain coating. The problem is that pots or pans can slide off the grate if you bump the handles which can lead to someone getting burned like a small child or,your legs. . The grates are too slippery! You cannot stir with one hand without the pot spinning. I returned this stove and bought another kenmore with cast iron grates.

had this stove for four month and the oven not working the timer not on no more.

wonderful stove reasonable prices

The only thing that isn't great about this stive are the burner grates, they are very cheap and I don't like the look of them being raised so high. It was hard to see this online when I ordered it may have persuaded me not to.

I really love this stove my previous stove was a 24 inch one, I have more space to cook and bake. But what is really helpful is the controls on this unit. The oven you touch bake and touch the arrow up and it go to 350. As some one who is vision impared it give you the freedom of cooking and not having to ask what temp do I have this. what a joy.

oven stops working after 2 years like clock work do not buy

I purchased this for my summer house 15 months ago and have only used the stove for about 6 months. Just found out that the safety valve is defective and is leaking gas into the house. Since I bought it 15 months ago it isn't under warranty. The replacement part is $180 not including labor to install.

I bought this stove, its the only one i could afford at the time. because we were and still are redoing the kitchen , the stove is not upagainst a wall on eitherside. well much to my surprize when my grandson (age 3) zoomed by on his scooter the pot of food flew off the stove. It has happened a few more times since. yes probably the stove needs to be more leveled, but the burner grates are too high. without the sides being highter there is some danger there. will not buy this type of design again

Cheap & stainless, the two usually don't go well together in the appliance world. Thankfully, this range is an exception. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality construction of the range. It has galvanized metal under the lift up range top, ensuring rust resistance. The oven door has a solid feel to it, and the burner controls all operate smoothly. This range has open burners, something that has all but disappeared from ranges today. Put some aluminum foil under the lift up top and forget about spills. Many people prefer sealed burners for ease of cleanup, I simply throw the foil away when too much **** piles up and put new foil down; easy, simple, and hardly inconvenient. The oven keeps an accurate temperature, and the broil drawer is simple to use, even with casserole dishes. Other reviewers have commented on the lack of oven insulation, it does not bother me, and is typical of any non self-cleaning oven. Simply put, this was the perfect range for my limited budget.

My old stove was gradually breaking and I needed a new one soon. Plus I was on a major budget due to other bills. I was not expecting the cadillac of stoves. It took me alot of shopping around and I scored a great buy for a quality stove.
