I can second what Cookingpassion has said about the ZET oven. I've lived with the single wall oven (ZET1) for about a year now and am completely pleased with it. Very quick preheat, quiet fan, rolling racks, large oven cavity, easy-to-use controls, very even cooking/baking/browning of food, and easy to clean up. I've run the self-clean numerous times and it does a beautiful job. It is FAR superior to the Kitchenaid Architect wall oven in our previous home. My other top contenders were Thermador and Fisher-Paykel and I'd choose the Monogram again today. We have paired it with a Wolf AG range and the Monogram wins as our go-to everyday oven because of its fast preheat and self-cleaning function. However, you can't beat the gas oven for broiling, roasting, etc.

We just had a Whirlpool glass top range put in last week -tomorrow it would be one week. I was cooking chicken noodle soup on it tonight, took the lid off to stir the soup and set it on the cooktop (I only had one burner going). When I went to pick the lid up (about 30 sec later) it was stuck/suctioned to the cooktop. I left it b/c I didn't want to scratch it. About 2 min later the whole cooktop shattered. The place under the lid was in a million pieces. The rest of it had cracks. We had a glass cooktop prior to this but it had 4 quadrants -this one is one solid piece of glass. I think the 4 quadrants help temper the heat better. Have to call Whirlpool tomorrow and see what they're going to do about it.

Model PGB995SETSS Is there anyone out there that can give me input on this puppy for everyday cooking for my son and sometimes my husband? I have searched and there is not too much info.on appliances forum for these double free standings w/small oven on tops. Some peeps in the kitchen forums liked them, as like me, they don't like to bend over all the time and like a small oven to use everyday. The subject of cooktops vs. free standing ranges came up. I'm remodeling a 12'6" x 15'9" kitchen with three doors and a 49" (38 1/2" of it actual glass, from 1939)and of course a sink w/ window over it. Wall oven and cooktop seem like they'd limit counterspace/storage. Will add island but if anything went there, I'd want it to be prep sink. Some peeps suggested induction cooktops, but I think I like to see the fire and am leery of buying new pans etc. Help?

susanuws, I'm looking at similar ranges for our future kitchen remodel. I did have an electric Maytag Gemini in my previous home that I really liked, including one rack in the main (lower) oven that had the glide feature. Very helpful since the oven was sooo low. I'm pretty sure that the lower oven will be whatever the upper oven is (thus, gas, in your case). Good luck; I'll be interested to see what others have to say. And don't forget to post back after you've had some time to use your new range!
