Minimize
Pros: Attractive appearance Front panel burner knobs Many oven features Good baking performance Cons: Hidden element reduces crisping (pizza) Fan is noisy when baking Panel fails oven if water enters BottomLine: Attractive but flawed execution and premature failure. Get the extended warranty, wait for water to boil and your pizza will have soft crust. Not acceptable for this price level.
Pros: Beautiful design, great features and easy to use. Cons: Expensive and the control panel can't seem to survive the heat of the self-clean cycle. BottomLine:
Ditto on the noisy! Black cook top scratches easy! Extra sensitive touch pad
Pros: Look, style Cons: EXTREMELY noisy fan, black cook top shows scratches, extremely sensitive touch keypad at front. BottomLine: Too bad about the noise, the look is really nice.
Pros: Beauty, quality construction, and the cooktop (simmer function on all burners) Cons: Unbearable constant cooling fan noise when oven is on. BottomLine: Buy it only if you are deaf or never plan to use the oven. I hope Kitchen Aid fixes the noise for future models.
A Stylish and Very Functional Electric Stainless Steel Oven
Pros: A sleek, stylish stove and oven with many features that cooks like a charm. Cons: The fan makes a bit more noise than I would like. BottomLine: One of the most stylish, stainless steel stoves. It looks like a professional gas stove and cooks almost as well. Kitchenaid also makes matching stylish and functional refrigerators and dishwashers.
