Frigidaire Gallery 30" Self-Cleaning Freestanding Electric Convection Induction Range: Take control of your cooking surfaces and treat your family to home-cooked meals. The 5-element induction cooktop gives you more room to boil, simmer and fry while making cleanup easier by heating only the cookware, not the cooktop, eliminating burnt-on spills. The convection oven lets you cook foods evenly on multiple racks while gauging and maintaining your desired food temperature. This smart, powerful functionality comes in a stainless steel package that complements the modern kitchen with elegant style.

love the induction, but.....

We have had the stove about a month now. Very minor adjustment to the AWESOME speed that this range heats up. Very controllable heat. The convection oven is fantastic! Even cooking and fast.
The hardest thing to get used to is how fast you can boil water and heat food. It's thrown me off a few times trying plan everything to be done at once but, I'm getting better with it .
You do need high end cookware with an induction range, the heavier the better. We had to trash all of our Revere Ware since it does not work on induction and replaced it with "stupid expensive" All-Clad 5 ply.
My only complaint with the stove, and the reason I didn't give 5 stars, is that the cooktop is very easily scratched. My last stove was near 20 years old and was starting to show its age but, it took a long time to get there. This cooktop is so smooth and shinny that it shows every little mark. It is not realistic to think to think you would never move a pan while its on the stove. We keep the cooktop very clean and use appropriate cleaning products yet, we have small scratches already.. This one will never make the 10 year mark looking good.
Other than that: this is a great stove.
My buying experience with Best Buy was the worst I ever had with any retailer. I wish I gave my money to another store with better service.
Overall I recommend the stove but not the retailer.

I would recommend this to a friend!
