GE 30″ Freestanding Electric Range Review

Electric Range

Sometimes there is a new electric range that really grabs my attention. There are several qualities that a range must have in order for me to get excited. Some of these qualities include having some cool features, the usability of the product and the price. I have just found a new electric range by GE that has all of these qualities and then some more. I am talking about the GE 30″ Freestanding Electric Range, Model: JBS55SKSS. This particular electric range comes with so many features that are actual usable. And, the price for this appliance is breathtaking. Expect to pay an average of around $630, however, I have seen this model on sale for as low as $598.00, definitely worth checking out.

Some of the features that this appliance offers its users includes the QuickSet III oven controls, which give you extremely simple operation as well as very accurate temperature read-outs. Another feature this oven has is the oven size. It is a total of 5.3 cubic feet, which is absolutely massive. Within the oven, there are also 2 oven racks with a total of 6 different rack positions, which provide you with more-than-enough room to cook a wide variety of meals and dishes. There is also a dual-element baking system, which uses the upper broiling element and the lower baking element to heat up your food evenly, all without overcooking your food.

The electric range comes with two 6″ 1500-watt elements, as well as two 8″ 2000-watt ribbon heating elements, which give you a constant stream of heat. Of course, this oven is a smooth top, so the heat is distributed evenly and the clean-up is extremely simple and fast. This oven also comes with a heating element-on indicator light, as well as a hot surface indicator light alert, which informs you and everyone else in the kitchen that the cook top is on and very hot. This will help ward off any instances of someone burning their hands. This is also very useful if you have children, because it will give them a visual reminder of not to touch the cook top because it is hot.

This oven also has feature that will help organize your kitchen and keep things you need readily available. There is a removable full-width storage drawer, which can extend to keep all of your cookware and bakeware within an arms reach. This also helps keep your kitchen organized and put-together. There is nothing worse than opening a cabinent and all of a sudden you are bombarded by huge pots and pans, now you won’t have to worry about this because there is now a place that can easily store them. And, there is also a large window and interior light in the oven that allows you to check in on your food without having to actually open the door. This is very important, especially if you want to have food that comes out perfectly even.

I understand the perils of having to shop for a new electric range oven. I know this because I used to work at a place where weary customers would stroll in, afraid that they weren’t going to find anything. And when I showed them this model, they were always very excited. Mainly, because they have all of the qualities that makes a perfect mid-grade electric range. If you’re in the market, do yourself a favor and go look at this range in person, you won’t be sorry you did.
