GE Appliances JB258DMBB 30 Inch Electric Freestanding Range Black

I bought this about six weeks ago. It cooks fine, but needs improvement in several areas, I feel. Inconvenience Number 1: Setting the temperature for baking is a problem. I should be able to enter the temp I want, and it automatically heats up to that temp. With this oven, I enter the temperature, and then the display tells me to 'push on'. There are two problems with this: the first is, I shouldn't have to push any more buttons, beyond what I want the temp to be. The second problem is, when I do push the 'on' button, it turns out to be for the timer, not the temperature. The display needs to be changed to say to 'push start', not 'push on'. Inconvenience Number 2: Having to push the button for the oven light to see the contents of the oven when I open the door. All other ovens I've ever used, the light comes on automatically when I open the door, and goes off automatically when the door is closed. If I want the light on when the door is closed, then I push the button for the light to come on. Inconvenience Number 3: Having to push 'on' after setting how many minutes I want on the timer. I should just be able to enter the minutes, and that should be it. With this oven, you need to push 'on' before the timer starts. Inconvenience Number 4: The drip pans. There are two problems with these. The pans are made so the burner needs to be unplugged before the drip pan can be removed to be cleaned. That makes cleaning them difficult, as unplugging each burner, to remove the pan, is a step that shouldn't have to be made. Also, by unplugging or plugging in the burner so often, it weakens the plug, making the burner loose, and eventually breaking at the plug. If the drip pans were easy to remove, without having to unplug the burner, it would be much easier to clean, and the plugs wouldn't weaken and break. The second problem with the drip pans is the material they are made from. They stain easily. They should be made of stainless steel, so cleaning them is easy. I bought this oven so my daughter could further her cooking experiences. She did very well on a similar electric coil Kenmore, but this oven has confused ME, not to mention her.

This stove is by far the worst stove ever in existence you can't even keep water boiling because it constantly cools down it's terrible waste of money do not fall for the scam of the good reviews because there is nothing good about this stove other than the oven the stove top is complete garbage
