works great, looks nice!
We've been without an oven for 9 months, so it's great to have one back again! My only requirement was that it had a storage drawer and NOT a broiler drawer. But this one had so many other pluses; it's a 5.0 capacity, dishwasher-safe grates!!!, power and simmer burner, sealed burners, self-cleaning, and did i mention a storage drawer-(yay more space!) With all that it was stainless steel AND at a price cheaper than ******** with free delivery..we could not pass it up. It looks beautiful! The delivery people installed and hauled our old one away, and made sure i had time to clean up underneth before they put it into place. Checked it over and showed me how everything works! We've had it for about a month now and are not disappointed with our pick! The burners work fantastically!!! The power burner cuts my boil time in half :) The simmer is great for my soups, and the other 2 burners cook WAY better than my old cooktop. And the oven is outstanding!!! The outside barley feels warm, we have little kids(2,4 and 6 years old) and they are always wanting to help out in the kitchen, so this is great for little hands that don't know any better...esp the door lock feature, great peace of mind!!!

Design Flaw
Originally loved this oven for the beautiful look. Although the oven function is not an issue, the oven vent "location" is a major design flaw. The first time I used the oven for a major meal, I received a third degree burn on my right hand, just from shutting the oven off! I later discovered that the the major oven vent is located directly under the oven control panel. I called Sears as I figured this just could not be right, only to find out that this is the design of the oven. The repair serviceman was wonderful, but as it was part of the "design", there was nothing he could do. Now I must risk (another) burn each time I utilize the oven and (for safety concerns) restrict my teenages to stovetop only so that the control panel is not an issue. I just don't understand why they could not have placed the vent, or the control panel to one side so that they did not overlap.....Wish I had known this before making the purchase.

Kenmore range

Burners,oven & broiler all work beautifully as a new range should. Outside shows every crumb & speck of dust & streaks if not dried after cleaning but that's a small complaint as it works so well.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Okay range with useless door lock

It is a simple and easy to use gas oven range except for door lock function. You can lock the door only when the oven is not in use. Duh? Door lock function and Stop are on the same button. Here is works. 1. Preheat 2. Put food in the oven 3. Push door lock button(=stop button) and hold it for 3 minutes, it shuts off oven and then door is locked. 4. Try to turn on the oven again but the control panel is already locked as the door is locked. Am I missing something? Why would you lock oven door when is not in use? Is it supposedly be used as a safety box maybe?

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Gas Range

The Gas Range has a great look and ease of use. I would prefer if the knobs were placed where a small child would not have the opportunity or chance to turn on the burners.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

I knew buying a Kenmore would be a mistake

Sears used to sell quality, but over the years they have majorly declined. I should have known better, but decided to give this model a shot. There were just so many good reviews that I thought maybe they got one right (a broken clock is right twice a day, right?) 5 months later and it's already broken and in need of repair. My previous oven was over 30 years old and no breakdowns (not a Sears product) They're coming next week to (hopefully) fix it, but until then, I can't use it. I'm just glad it's still under warranty. I wish this oven didn't have the digital programming for the oven temp control. It seems all ovens have that feature now instead of turning the **** for the temperature. If something goes wrong with the electronic component for the digital readout, then the oven won't work. Do a google search on 'kenmore oven digital readout doesn't work' and you'll see how many hits you get.

Flimsy

I like the range, But have a couple complaints. I got a good deal when I bought the range on sale. But then found out Sears wanted another $310 to deliver, convert to LP, and install. That would have almost doubled what I paid for it. Why can't Sears offer a gas range than is already set up to use LP gas? I have installed other major appliances, so I did this one myself too and saved all that money. It really wasn't that hard and for sure not worth $310 labor. I noticed it was built flimsy compared to my old range. After it was installed, I noticed it rattled, a lot. Every time you walked across the kitchen floor or a truck went past, the range would rattle in the area of the clock. I took it all apart and had to put spacers between the flimsy tin to keep it from rattling.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
