Bakes, broils and cooks as good as it looks
I decided to replace my double oven for a single oven. This new Frigidaire range has a convection oven for fast cooking when needed as well as a broiler with HI-LOW settings. The oven temperature control is very easy to use and accurate. Almost eliminates hot spots.
The real wonder is the cook top. Large super fast water boiling from the extra large 17,000 BTU burner. Perfect when I can jams and jellies or other food items. Great for cooking pasta.
The smallest 5,000 BTU burner makes sauces and simmering a breeze. Then you still have two (2) mid-size burners for most other cooking.
Lastly, there is a oval griddle (included or look for the new copper version grate by others) which can be flipped over for searing meats and fish. Really handy.
I read others cooks had concerns with the burner knobs getting too hot to touch. I cooked a thanksgiving turkey at 325-degrees for 4-1/2 hours and only noticed they get warm to the touch. (just my findings)
The oven self cleans, and after a month I see no build up to concern about. Love the Stainless Steel Gallery look to match and compliment my other kitchen appliances. Built in timer, and chime signals the oven has warmed up to cooking temperature.

Multi-BTU cooktop w/convection oven
Frigidaire Gallery convection oven matches my Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator. I spotted the cooktop in Best Buy and saw how the extra large BTU burner could be great for boiling water during my canning operations. In addition to two (2) regular BTU burners, it has a smaller one for simmering. My stove came with a griddle that fits in place of the middle grate perfect for use with the fifth oval burner.
The oven is easy to use. The oven controls are on the top of the oven, with a digital timer too. Once the oven reaches temperature (pre-warm indicator) it gently chimes the oven is ready to bake. I used my pizza stone which produced a perfect, ( and not burnt) crust.
The broiler is inside the oven, and is separate from the baking burner for easy broiling.. I noticed it has multi settings for HI, MEDIUM and LOW broiling.
I will need to learn how to use the convection feature. This is totally new to me. The oven features a self cleaning mode, which has been around for over 40-years. Love that.

Replaced older model. I hope this review helps.
I must say, this is a very nice Frigidaire Range.
My household used to own a similar model from about 2 years ago. The "display" on this model is much better. The fonts are larger and it's nice, because you can notice the time or temps from far away if need be. I also noticed that when this item was shipped, they didn't use industrial tape to hold down each burner - meaning = The burners on the 2015 model were not in a separate box and the tape used to hold down the burners, left "residue" that you could not clean; no matter how hard you tried. The oven's window is nicer, is very "see thru". The older models had a tint which made it hard to see inside the oven unless the light was on. The switches on this are thicker and seem more sturdy versus the older 1. But 1 thing did annoy me. The oven's inside used to have 2 grills from what I can remember. This new 1, has only 1 grill. I don't know if that's a huge issue for some, but I re-used mines from the older 1 to compensate. Very very nice range, if you're not going to spend a ton for the industrial chef models.
