It's pretty good.
By Bodycount
Pros: Stylish looks. Easy to control lockout feature for children. Stove top heats up really fast.
Cons: Preheat doesn't get to desired temp after alarm goes off. Can't have timer and clock on at same time. Exhaust fan is right where you stand so you're constantly getting air blown on you.
I like this stove. It's not worth the price the big store chains are selling it for ($2000+) but for the price I got it at, it's worth it. I really like the lockout feature so my children can't accidentially turn it on without me knowing. The top burners heat up super fast but the glass stays really hot for an extended period of time after they are off. Way too long for my standards. The exhaust blowing is directly where you stand making it so if you're cooking at the stove, you constantly getting blasted with air right in your face. If you're cooking a pizza or something else that has strong odors, you're going to get that odor on your clothes. Whoever thought this would be a good place to vent should be fired. Also the preheat feature doesn't go to your desired temp when the alarm goes off. I preheated the oven to 425F and the alarm went off at 225F. So I had to set it on bake to 425F to get it the rest of the way. The fans stay on the entire time it's cooking and for about an hour after the stove is turned off. It's not very loud but if you're in the kitchen you will hear it. Overall I have some good points and some bad points. I would be very mad right now if I bought this at Lowes or Best Buy for full retail price but I didn't.. got it much much cheaper at a smaller chain store. So overall I'm happy with it. I just wish that exhaust blower was in a different place. It would be almost perfect if it was.

poor design, shorter cooks beware
By Michael
Whenever oven or any of the surface elements is on, internal fan turns on and blows air at the cook. My wife is 5'1" and she feels it on her face which is very unpleasant.
I contacted the manufacturer (Electrolux). They call it a feature (that keeps internal parts cool). I would call it quick fix of some design flaw done at the expense of user comfort and product reliability (fan is moving part that is likely to fail some time down the road, probably after the warranty expires).
I would not recommend this product.

By Ronald M. Bowren
I purchased this range (from another source at a much lower price) last May, it was to replace an older model of the same range...but this unit had a few issues of great concern for me.
After I prepped the slide-in slot for the new (and a little wider) range, I had a problem hooking up the new pigtail. It all looked correct (according to the instructions), but something just seemed wrong? I finally called a contractor to come over and take a look, and at first he thought it all looked correct also.
So to be safe we removed all of the metal coverings and connectors on the back of the range (where you attach the three pigtail connectors) to see how it was set up, and to our surprise all three connector sites connected directly into the metal frame of the range.
This would mean that the metal frame of the range would be directly hooked up to the 220 volt power cable in such a way as to give anyone a great electric shock if it was touched once it was connected and plugged in.
We corrected the problem, and hooked it up without a problem after that.
Now here is the scary part. The next day as I was cleaning up the pieces of the cardboard box the range came in, and all of the many pieces of paper and plastic that came with it...I came across a small plastic bag with some paperwork in it, and three connectors.
In the bag was an Alert to open the connector box on the back of the range, and connect the pigtail using the connectors provided in the bag (as illustrated). Doing so would prevent the pigtail from being connected directly to the metal frame of the range. I immediately called Frigidaire to urge them to add this Alert to all of the installation paperwork that comes with the range before someone gets electrocuted. But they did not seem to be as concerned as I was.
My next issue was with the four top burner knobs. While they look great, it is much too easy to accidentally turn a burner on just by bumping or brushing against them. Since May I have had at least 12 fires related to this problem (do to a dishtowel, paper towel, or paper or plastic bag, etc., laid on the range top while working in the kitchen near the range). Frigidaire was not much help with this issue either.
I first thought about adding childproof knob covers, but after reading reviews of others with this same concern...the best idea was to just remove the knobs until I needed to turn a burner on, so that was my solution for that problem.
Other than the above, it is a great range...but wish I had converted to gas like I had considered before ordering this range. I do most of my cooking on one of my woks (using a butane gas stove), or one of the many electric pans, grills, etc., so don't use the range that much more anyway. So for me removing the knobs was not that inconvenient (and much safer).
Hope my comments are of help if you are considering this range, or having any problems with one you already own.
