I owned this stove. While I had it, it was good. It heated quickly and well. The oven worked without any issues and was accurate. However, I have a horror story in regards to this oven and GE:

At 6 months into owning this stove the top glass broke. I've kept the top clean and even pristine. It came with a small bottle of Weimem glass top stove cleaner, which I used and bought another bottle when it ran out.

It broke after I heated up some water to make noodles. No splash or splatter from the water or noodles touched the glass. There wasn't a mess to clean up, so I sat down to eat. Half way through I heard the glass crack. It was loud and cracked from the back to the front, completely.

I called GE to inquire about the warranty. They asked the usual questions, including if I left melted sugar to dry on it. I mentioned I cleaned it with the stove top cleaner *they included with the stove* and GE's representative informed me that it isn't a recommended cleaner and it voided my warranty. They would not replace the stove top.

A replacement for the stove top was $850. I paid $650 for the stove. It only lasted 6 months and couldn't be used with the full thickness crack from front to back. I would avoid GE glass top stoves.
Good price. But notice, this is a non-convection oven. Also, the bottom element is exposed (not hidden like on other models), so any spillovers will end up on it and burn.

Solid price but I think at this point it's time to go Induction stove top

I would advise against this idea. It is cheaper to buy a new oven than to retain a lawyer and pay the legal fees which would cost more than a new oven. You're looking at $300 hr and 1 hr to just to draft a letter to GE. This is a budget/value range oven not a high-end oven so it's not even worth the hassle if time is important to you
Agreed. A better move would be to find the email addresses of several executives, explain the situation, demand a refund/replacement and put all the email addresses in the to field. Another option is to reach out via X/Twitter or other social media platforms. Most people would be surprised how effective this tactic can be.

Does anyone know if extended warrantys like squaretrade would cover a cracked cooktop if that were to happen?

What would you recommend for someone on a budget?
An Air fryer! I know it's not the same, but an air fryer will run you around $80, until you can save up for an oven you want...if you still want one after using the air fryer.

We use the air fryer 10 times more than the oven, very rarely use the oven now. We even use the air fryer more than our microwave. You can cook everything from frozen food to reheating fries that you would otherwise throw away, the air fryer has been fantastic. I'd give that a try while you save up. Smilie

It needs 240V.
Thanks for the info. Read the user guide. It says 120v/240v. Perhaps both voltages fine.

Not really. The heating elements need 240V while the controller needs 120V. So, if you do not have a 240V outlet in the kitchen, this range will not work.

If you really want to go through the courts, just take it to small claims court. No lawyer needed. If GE doesn't send a representative, you win. If you explain that you used the included cleaner, and they told you it voided the warranty, you'll probably win.

While I had looked at glass top ovens before, I think I will be staying away from them. I've had heating elements go bad before, but they are cheap and easy to replace.

Jesus Christ, that sounds a damn trap if they include a cleaner that voids the warranty as part of the sale

Quote from DaddyMoreBucks :
Not to thread jack or anything and YMMV Greatly but I found both HD and LWS to have model number JGB735SPSS on sale for less than 600 since they are discontinuing this model. It's both convection and self cleaning but alas it is gas. So if that is an issue than no go for you.
I picked one up this weekend for less than $5.
There were 9 in stock when I last checked the tri county area. Good luck.

Search of the model you are referring to is showing over $1,000 at both HD and Lowes. Do you have a link for the JGB735SPSS at less than $600??

The deals are in store only since this a discontinued model. All the links show online pricing $1000+ but in store they are $599 and below. Again, YMMV and I believe they are all display clearances. I picked mine up for $450.

so, i will be honest --- the power boilers they put on these ovens (mine has one) they are odd


it does bring stuff to a boil quickly, but mine after a year of use i avoid using this one for boiling anything.... the issue comes down to when it gets hot even if i lower it for whatever reason it keeps going at same intervals/keeps running the heating element, the only way to fix it is by turning the burner completely off and then on...

essentially the powerboiler element likes to try and cause pasta to boil over the pot regardless of size of pot i use (normally my largest which is just a tiny bit smaller than my stock pot for canning)

the other burners no issues
