Whirlpool : WFE381LVS 30 Freestanding Electric Range Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my first foray into a convection oven & a glass top, I'm hooked.
This is a nice looking oven/stove. While it's somewhat easy to clean there are trade offs from the old burner style. The glass top & stainless steel need to be wiped off regularly as they show any goofs readily. The old porcelain ranges & old style burners hid smudges & messes well but when it did come time to clean it was a big job.
The glass top will scratch if you're not careful. If you use cast iron a lot you might not want the glass top. I have a large cast frying pan that I use carefully but I've still managed to scratch the top. I assume it's from my cast iron cookware even though I've checked everything for burrs on the bottom & haven't found anything that I think would scratch glass....?
The dual zone burners are great for sizing to the pan/pot. The largest is 11" & heats my 12" cast pan great!
In my opinion the oven heats a tad slow and boiling water on the top could also be quicker but maybe I'm expecting too much.
The electronic timer doesn't turn off the oven like & hoped. You can accomplish the auto off but it takes more programming.
The storage drawer is a joke. It closes crooked & jams unless you use two hands to keep it perfectly straight. The drawer is not as deep as it could be & things will fall out of the back of it easily which means you'll be on your hands & knees fishing baking sheets out from under your oven. It's very cheaply made. I don't understand why they cut some very serious corners here.

GE : JSP39SNSS 30 Slide-in Electric Range, Self-Clean Oven - Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've owned the stainless steel GE JSP39SNSS slide-in electric coil range for 2 weeks. We were hesitant to buy it because we couldn't find any reviews and no stores around us carried an actual model. We also thought the transition between the control panel and the range top looked a little ugly in the photo. But because we cook with cast iron, we decided to go with it instead of a glass top radiant range. So far, we are VERY happy we did.
In the last few weeks, I've baked several batches of perfect cookies. When I say perfect, I mean that the tops, bottoms and edges are all the same color despite being baked on old dark pans on different levels in the oven. They actually look like they came from a package. And yes, I forgot to switch the cookie sheets around in the middle of baking. I've also baked french bread on a pizza stone and hamburger buns in bun pans in the middle of the oven. They, too, have come out perfect. No, this is not a convection oven. I can't get over the results.
The coils on top heat up faster than any other electric range I've ever used. And far from being ugly, I think the coils look like architectural elements. In fact, this is the only electric coil range I've ever seen that I would classify as 'pretty'. I think it's better looking than many radiant ranges and gas ovens. The photos definitely do not do it justice. The drawer is wider and deeper than our old one. It is actually possible to put two stacks of cookie sheets inside rather than just one. My only complaint is that the fan which cools the computer can continue running long after the baking is done. I think this is because the oven is extremely well insulated -- it's barely warm when we touch the outside during the baking cycle. We've solved this problem by leaving the oven cracked for a few minutes when we're done baking. It's a small price to pay.
