This is a great range. What makes it even better is that it come from ABT. All of the appliances and electronics in our home come from ABT.

Sales people are very easy to deal with and they are not high pressure.

The selection is great. If Abt doesn't have it it's not made!

Check out the watch store. It is a great extra.

I have owned this oven for 8 months, and I would not recommend it. Both ovens are very aggressive - they run hot and cook too fast. I am constantly having to adjust the temp down and leave everything in for less time. Cookies that should take 20 start to burn in 12! I bake regularly and even after 8 months of trying I still end up burning the first batch of EVERYTHING. I know a convection oven requires adjustment, but this is ridiculous. It's nice to have two ovens but not when you can't use them correctly. I really regret this purchase. I wish I could send it back.

While I can understand that the other one star review was based on a faulty unit, we have been nothing but extremely happy with our stove. We love it so much, we wanted to take it to our new home but was unable to - and are now going to buy another one.

It's well made, solid, and looks great. It's also very intuitive and easy to use. What we like most about it, besides the look is that it's a great unit to use for everyday use as well as entertaining. We typically use the small oven for our day to day uses since it's smaller and more efficient and then use the bigger unit when entertaining - turkey in the bigger oven and rolls and potatoes in the smaller oven. Cobalt blue interior of the oven does look sweet.

Lots of options on the cook top and the one burner brings water to a boil quickly as stated. While I agree is doesn't have as much room on the cook top as other units, it's really not an issue to us.

Overall, I like the looks, build and functionality of this unit for the size and price. Would recommend.

I think the double oven feature is great. I love the Cobalt Blue interior. But not worth giving up 8 inches of cooking space on top.

I have had nothing but problems with this range for these 4 months I have owned it. The first range that was delivered had a faulty lower over door, that didn't seal properly. That range was replaced, and now I have come to discover the hard way that the upper oven in my new range is off by 50 deg. Not good when you are trying to bake that perfect cake – Ok that can be fixed, but what really makes me unhappy with this range is that the cook top space is tiny and the proportion is HORRIBLE. The design of this range has the knobs on an angle that consume about 6 inches of cook top space, plus the grills also start on an angle, removing about another 2 inches, so the depth of your cook top area is reduced by about 8 inches. It is hard to have two pans going at the same time on the same side, one they don't fit, and if they do, one will be close to tipping over because the grills end on an angle. If I am able to miraculously find two pans that will fit on the same side they are not centrally placed over the flame, because the design of the angled grates don't allow that. It is hard to just get on pan placed centrally over the flame without your pan tipping over and possibly causing a bad accident. WHAT A HORRIBLE DESIGN.

I am a busy mother of two, I don't spend all day in the kitchen, but when I do I want to have enough space to cook my pasta, my chicken breast, and sauce at the same time, but I can't, pans don't fit properly.

I am so disappointed, I was much happier with my old GE.
