“Excellent-ish”
on March 1, 2021
Posted by: DJC999
from Anderson SC
We’ve owned this GE dual-fuel range for three years and it’s an excellent cooking appliance. The top gas burners are powerful yet finely adjustable down to a very low simmer. We covered the 5th middle (oblong) burner with the griddle plate, which gives us flexibility. Build quality is very solid as expected for a high end range at this price. Unfortunately, we did have recurring failures with the oven temperature probe. We don’t usually roast meat in the oven except for holiday meals (rib roast, turkey, tenderloin, etc.), so when our probe failed on two separate holiday occasions it could’ve ruined the expensive meat. After each occasion the probe was repaired under warranty. The first repair didn’t resolve the problem but we didn’t realize it wasn’t working until the next big holiday roast when the probe failed again. The second repair fixed the issue and the probe is working well. In fact, roasting with the oven probe is virtually foolproof. I think this range otherwise would deserve 5 stars, except the probe problem compels me to deduct a star. I would definitely recommend this GE range and I’d buy it again. Pro tip: Invest in the extended warranty.
I would recommend this to a friend!

high btu burner failure
on March 23, 2021
Posted by: mommak5
have had this range for almost 9 years and many family meals- have needed to replace the high btu burner assembly twice due to warping (and need to replace yet again); the igniter on that burner has failed and now need to light it manually; center burner is rarely used due to functionality; oven features are nice, warming drawer is a plus... very disappointed that at this price point there have been consistent failures. currently shopping for another range and it won't be a GE
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good, but front burner BTU issues

I saw several reports similar to below.
"have had this range for almost 9 years and many family meals- have needed to replace the high btu burner assembly twice due to warping (and need to replace yet again); the igniter on that burner has failed and now need to light it manually; center burner is rarely used due to functionality; oven features are nice, warming drawer is a plus... very disappointed that at this price point there have been consistent failures. currently shopping for another range and it won't be a GE"

We experienced the same issue and now we have to wait until JUNE until the new assembly arrives. That means working with a partial working stove for 2+ months. Not good.
I list no to recommend to a friend, but actually it is a yes, but with reservations. The burner warping seems like a manufacturing issue. Then to take 2+ months to resolve it...not great.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for being part of the GE Appliances family for all these years. We appreciate the review and feedback. It is disappointing to hear about the problem you have had with the burner and the delay on the part. We apologize for the hassle as the pandemic has caused some issues with our repair parts availability. We are working hard to fill orders and get the necessary parts out as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience.

Great features and great for a small kitchen
on December 26, 2019
Posted by: Wendo
from SLC, UT
I have a small kitchen and having the extra baking drawer is essential. I highly recommend a gas range, but having an electric oven is the best. It’s worth the money.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Mostly happy
on January 19, 2020
Posted by: ScootB
from Santa Barbara, CA
I've had this Cafe range for about 8 years, and am mostly happy with it. The only real problem has been the silicone range bumpers pop out when I clean the cooktop. My daugher broke off the lower oven control knob and rather than sell only the backing plate, you must purchase an entire knob assembly.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Classy and functional

Our GE CS980S is beautiful stainless, matching our GE Profile series fridge and dish washer. This range does everything we wanted, heats up fast, consistent temps, simple to keep clean, and it looks great. We’re big fans of GE appliances.
I would recommend this to a friend!

True Love
on May 2, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
from Raleigh, NC
I have an unhealthy affection for this appliance. Short story: it is everything I hoped for. Fabulous hot gas burners, faithful electric oven. Of course, no one is perfect. My beloved's one flaw is a somewhat significant level of uneven baking. We work with each other though, and so far have created copious amounts of delicious food for the last six years and counting. I highly recommend.
