What's great about it: The price
You cannot put tall pots no the back burnners and the big 11" front burnner really should have a smaller burnner in it. Learning to live with it but I still say --But--

What's great about it: Easy clean up and user friendly intuitive controls
What's not so great: factory settings for beeping
So far this range has been exactly what we expected. The cooktop is easy to clean, using the recommended glass/ceramic cleaner, even after spills have been burned on. The convection feature heats food evenly, as advertised. The only real complaint so far is that when the oven reaches temperature the default setting is for it to beep loudly three times. But I think this can be adjusted with the user settings. In all, we are happy with our purchase.

What's great about it: Priced reasonably
What's not so great: It is electronically controlled, but they are of poor quality.
Seems like a nice stove for the price. However, we started to have probems 4 months after we purchased the unit. After ruining a few cakes, we figured out it was the stove. So we called LG. They sent a 3rd party over and it turned our to be the "Mother Boad". It was not controling the temp on the oven correctly. So it was replaced. A month later, the buttons on the display started to give us problems as well. Sometimes they worked correctly and other times they did not. It appeard to be the Mother board again. This time the part was on back order, which leads me to belive that they cannot keep enough of this particular part on stock. Maybe because of too many problems with the same part. However, after 6 weeks on back order, LG decided to replace the unit for the same model, and only give us 90 warranty for the new product. We told them it was Not acceptable. Especially when we have seen how flimsy the mother board appears to be. We had to fight to get our money back. Please... Bite the bullet and pay a little more for a good range.The electronics on this unit are flashy, but of poor quality.

What's great about it: Convection oven, cooktop. Stainless.
What's not so great: What's left?
We really love this range...the convection oven works well and bakes the best of any oven we have ever had. Cooktop is great too...very quick and even heating, easy to control the temps and the "warmer" burner is great too.

What's great about it: Nothing
What's not so great: Everything
After three years this stove has proved to be garbage. Some of the push buttons quit working and I can't cook anything at 400, 450 or 475. Only at 300 and 500. Worthless! Very hard to keep clean too. Actually we are very disappointed with all the LG projects we purchased when we remodeled our kitchen. Not worth the money, poor quality. Stay away from LG. You'll be sorry.

What's great about it: Instant on, instant off, one stove, no waiting!
What's not so great: You have to keep the top clean or it looks bad.
This thing heats instantly and the oven is huge. Don't be afraid to use a single-edge razor blade to clean the top surface, it's just like scraping paint off a window. Best to clean after every use, though, when things get cooked on you will NOT get it of without that razor blade. Otherwise it works perfectly and the controls are very intuitive.

What's great about it: It's look, easy to use, good deal.
What's not so great: The bottom drawer
This is a great oven. Have owned it for a month now, easy to use, easy to clean. It cooks fast and efficient. Our old oven would get very hot a heat up the house. This new oven cooks 100 times better than our old one and dose not heat up the house near as much. We love it so far. Only complaint is the bottom drawer is very cheaply made unlike the rest of the oven. Other than that it is a great oven and would recommend to others.

What's great about it: Convect options!
What's not so great: Would have liked a speckled top (to hide spills easier)
After a LOT of research we purchased this stove (and all other LG appliances to match) when it was on sale in February. We LOVE it. At first I didn't think the convect roast and bake options were feature that I needed, but now that we have it, I use it all the time, and am glad we went ahead and purchased the "upgraded" version. Absolutely NO regrets! (and if given the option to purchase new stuff again, I would pick LG appliances a second time)

What's great about it: Glass top, heats very quickly, cooks precisesly.
What's not so great: Trying to figure out how to set the timer/cook temperature for the oven..
the only thing I dont like that the "buttons" are confusing to set the timer, turn on the oven, get the temperature you want. You have to read the manual so many times then u figure it out.
other than that, its a great stove. So clean and versatile. I love it.

What's great about it: Convection
What's not so great: TIme to heat up oven
My Thanksgiving Turkey (26 pounds) was done in 3.5 hours and was so moist and delicious did a great job - I never had a convection oven before and looking forward to trying a roast. Love the the glass top and the 2 elemnt size burner and the warming burner. I have not used the self clean yet so not sure how that is but I guess my only complaint is that the oven takes a long time to heat up and you really have to push the buttons hard to get functions. I also love the look and cobalt blue interior.

I love everything about it! The Convectional Bake and Roast settings leave my meat extra tender. I also love how easy it is to have a flat stove top because it is so much easier to clean spills. Love all the bells and whistles!

What's great about it: It looks great
What's not so great: Not sure yet - too new to tell....
I really am happy with this purchase on this stove. It is very nice to look at. My only complaint is that the first time i really used it (two days after having it) the glasstop got scratched when there was nothing "sharp" on it.. if it scratches this easily this is a concern.. Otherwise it is very nice. Still getting used to using it as it is touch control and having to adjust temperatures frequently until I get used to it. I like the fifth element for heating without taking up one of your 4 elements and there is one element that can be either large or small. The inside color blue is gorgeous... The touch pad on the stove is very nice but sometimes you have to push hard to use those buttons.... I am still not used to the convection part of it - so really cannot state info for you on that. It supposedly converts temps for you so will see... Overall i would recommend this to this point.. As i said I have only had it a couple of weeks and still learning it myself....

What's great about it: Burners and oven work great. High build quality.
What's not so great: You need specialized cleaners for the stove top.
Admittedly coming from one of those "circular element" electrics, this is a huge step up. But, the burners heat up immediately, which is something I was never used to. It's easy to clean (try getting all the "food gunk" from under those circular elements or under gas jets).
The convection oven is outstanding. Baking/broiling, etc is wonderful, plus there are no "burnt spots" on one end of a casserole while the other end isn't even cooked.
Build quality and looks are great.
Best Buy had this on sale. No other range could come even remotely close to beating this one for the price. Looked at Sears....nothing close.

What's great about it: Evenly Cooks and bakes. Excellent heating elements in the cooktop.
What's not so great: Nothing! It's the perfect stove for me!
I have had this stove for a little under a year and I really enjoy using it.
The convection feature for pizza is fantastic! One of the biggest reasons I love this stove is that when I want to boil water I only have to put the burner on medium and in a couple minutes I have a nice boil that I can maintain by putting the stove temp down to low. This stove is so much better with evenly cooking and baking then my last stove.
My old stove was a builder grade electric coil nightmare that burned anything that was cooked or baked inside it. So glad to have my LG stove! Love it!
