Samsung Induction Range or Kenmore Induction Range
Comments (21)After having such a horrible experience with the Kenmore electric range, I am afraid to try Kenmore again. Still have some extended warrranty left which will transfer to the Samsung. I have had great luck with my other Samsung appliances, so I hope I do with the range also. My husband laughed at me when I told him that the appearance of the Kenmore just left me cold, but when he saw it, he felt the same way. Blah. Can't put my finger on why. gscience chick, after baking I usually leave my oven door cracked open in the winter anyway for the heat boost to the kitchen. My son uses Circulon Infinite pans on his induction and really likes them. (Interesting to get cooking advice from my son!) In browsing the net, Circulon has a 25% off sale this month as well as deep discounts on the Infinite (looks like Symmetry will be replacing it). I found an 11 inch skillet for roughly $18 and a twin pack 10 and 12 skillet for $36 (Symmetry), etc. Then on the potsandpans.com website I was able to find the 3qt saucepan for a really good price. I have a few pots and pans that I can use from before (I hope). Two of them have 8 3/4" bases - hope I can use them . . . I love my Calphalon Contemporary saucepans and hate to lose them, but I see that they are coming out with a Contemporary IH line (induction friendly) - in Australia, but not here yet. Maybe soon . . .? Guess my life is kind of dull when I can get so excited about a new range! Any hints and suggestions will be appreciated!...See MoreSamsung Dual Fuel Dual Oven - any opinion or owners?
Comments (7)Winston, I realize this is late but I purchased the duo flex dual fuel slide in Samsung range in April. I'm a sucker for a gimmick. The top oven uses the broiler element to heat the cavity and only has convection bake. Never the less things still burn on top unless covered. Our bottom oven temperature is way off and isn't even off a consistent amount. We're having it serviced. Also, even though the advertising says the unused oven remains cool if using the oven with the divider in, this is not true. Using the lower oven at 400 degrees eventually heated the upper oven close to 300. The divider just doesn't insulate that well. The gas cooktop works well. The 5th burner is for a griddle that comes with the range. It takes a very long time to heat the cast iron griddle. We have not yet tried cooking two dishes simultaneously in the oven. Love the gas cooktop, the ovens not so much. Should have saved money and just gotten a single oven range. I will say it's a very good looking range and one of the reasons I got is for the kitchen remodel....See MoreGE Cafe Induction Range Questions
Comments (248)Donna I had the same issue with the range being higher than the countertop. The countertop is exactly at the proper height of 36" but the lowest you can adjust the range down to is 36-3/16. My bet is this is a carry over from the older GE frame design where the slide in range top slightly overlapped the countertop. The minimum range height was designed so you could not go any lower and put strain on the range top. The best solution I have found is to use the optional GE stainless steel trim kit. I posted a pic of it in this thread back on Aug 5 , 2018. It's getting close to 2 years since I installed mine and still loving it....See MoreAnyone have experience with the Samsung Flex Duo slide in range?
Comments (23)Since our appliances are black stainless we felt it best to get all kitchen appliances from one manufacturer. Based on reviews of Samsung appliances, dishwashers and refrigerators in particular, we decided on Whirlpool for all of our appliances. We gave up some of the bells and whistles and cool features for, hopefully, fewer problems and repairs down the road. I know there are good and bad reviews for all brands, but in the end we all have to go with our guts. I'm very happy with our new appliances....See Morejulieste
