Hi, I'm Steve. This is Fran. Today,
we're gonna rate front control gas ranges. Those,
those will have the controls in the front little better.
You can see the backsplash for a little better renovation.
Let's get started. What do you think? Alright. Sounds good.
So we're gonna jump right into it.
We're gonna start with Cafe and For this,
we're gonna talk about model CGS
seven fifty p four m w two.
First thing, you get colors.
On this,
there's only a few on this list that can actually get
everybody's still in that it's stainless or nothing mode or black stainless,
which you shouldn't buy because it's a coating that's gonna
peel off. But I like this because you get white, black.
Yeah. And those are two really popular trendy colors,
and you get like six different handle styles.
You get You know,
you had the three plus they've got two more matte and
everything else. So you can really make something unique.
You know, white, black or black. I like the black copper.
As far as the burners, you have two power burners, you've got the,
center as a lot of them do in the upscale burners.
I like that.
Two two of it, which can either be really good or really bad.
If you're if you're cooking,
you know, mostly small items,
you can use that smaller oven to not bend.
But if you cook a lot of turkeys and other stuff,
you're bending all the way down to the floor because there's no
storage draw that's becoming of an up top. So,
I really like this range, certainly from its uniqueness,
you know,
it gives you more oven capacity whether you're you like that on
a capacity, not to another story.
Yeah. If you like that true double oven.
This is definitely kind of one of the better ones that's out
there where it's truly a double oven there. But again,
like you said, you're bending down really low.
You're not getting storage drawer because of that double
oven. Six burners on this one, which is kinda unique too on,
six burners, right, twenty one thousand BTUs. Love the color.
It's definitely a unique option.
That's and pop in the kitchen,
whether it's just the range or imagine some other products
there. Yeah. So you get that griddle,
but that's get nineteen thousand btus underneath it.
So really getting three power burners.
Thanks for the correction. That's it. Yeah.
It's I I really like the range.
It it really depends whether you want a double oven or
Right. If you don't wanna double oven or not, it's
probably a c, but if for everything else, it's an s.
So I'd call it an a. Yeah.
Let's go.
And they do have options that will say out there that is just
a single regular Yeah. They love it.
Similar with the single love and I get it.
Alright. So next, let's talk LG Studio,
and we're gonna go the LSGS
six three three eight f. I like this range. Yeah.
A lot. You
get twenty two and a twenty thousand VT burner, which is
that's heavier. That's that's more output than most pro ranges. Yeah.
Pretty impressive. You get a six point three cubic foot oven,
which is bigger than every thirty six inch wrench you can
buy, non including pros. You have the Instaview.
You've got the, pure convection from the back.
The only things are missing is, warming drawers.
This storage drawer. Correct. Yeah. But for everything else,
it's a very reliable product.
Most people don't use the warming drawers, which is kinda sad.
And, you know, this is the top line.
When you when you go down line and and in anything,
whether you go from Samsung or LG, you get less BTs, no convection,
less less features. That way, I I really like this range.
I think for what people use it for, it's either an AR and S.
Yeah. Definitely at least an a for me too. I mean,
great Really good value too.
It's a two year parts and labor warranty air fry mode,
which you're starting to see kind of in there, which, you
know, doesn't work.
That works. It doesn't work. The use of these really cool.
Point three cubic foot. That's the biggest.
Capacity. Really large.
And you can you can it's got the camera,
so you can see your you can see your food on an app too.
It's not just basic.
Yeah. Basic smart.
So it's got really good and smart smart functionality.
I know I Love that two year warranty.
I'm not sure if I said that already.
I think what are we doing? Let's go with an s.
Just because we haven't even wanted to go like three episodes. Yep.
That's fast. There we go. We did it. Alright. Next,
we're gonna go with Samsung,
and we're gonna talk about the n x sixty t eight seven
five one s s.
This is the split one. Right? Correct. Smart divider? Yeah.
They're flex duo. Yep.
I I think Samsung has the right approach of actually innovating
whatever they can.
I mean,
they can't make a dishwasher like everybody else has got the water wall.
Is same thing same thing here is that you have two ovens
that you could take the smart divider out and make one larger
oven. And it's it's, I think, it's six point three same as,
LG. The only problem with that is, is you can't
do all the temperatures in both. Correct.
So if you like cooking and you gotta check,
you gotta check the, the, the, the,
the handbook that comes with it.
To say what you can and cannot do.
So it's not like the cafe where you can have two separate
ovens. It's two separate ovens depending on how you use it.
Right?
I love the style of the product.
I like the look of the product. I like the look of the product.
I like the function of the product.
Depending on you cook, this this for me is a,
at least a strong beef, not an a. Yeah.
So two convection fans in this one,
twenty three thousand burner.
So get definitely really powerful burner as well.
Yeah. It's a strong b, you know, definitely a strong b
there. I like it too. You know, I the split of,
and I think there is you know,
kind of like you said with water.
Yeah.
So I'm not sure how well that works and how much temperature
really transfers from one to the other. Like you said,
if you're doing two really different temperatures.
So I think that can be tough,
but I would definitely go with a strong day.
Yeah. Depending how services in your area, it might be an and
that's been the achilles heel because they're so popular and
can't get service guys, so it's tough. Alright. Alright.
So next, we're gonna talk about GE profile.
And it's gonna be model p g s nine thirty y p
f s. It's kinda like, to me, a little it's it's it's a
less expensive cafe without the double oven.
You don't get as bigger burner outputs.
You still get the five burners,
but I think it's what ten in the middle now. Yeah. And then
it, yeah, and tops out at a twenty one thousand ATU burner. Convection.
It's, oh, the oven's about average at four,
five point three cubic feet. Yep.
Priced or what? What's it priced at? I don't even know.
From mid two thousands.
I I think it's a, again, g has their own service,
which is something you guys you consider if you're buying
without a a store without service,
which ninety five percent of them are.
I would say this is another strong beef, not in a woody.
For sure, I'd probably go be, you know,
one cool thing that they have on the GES is that middle
griddle burner. It's kind of more of an insect griddle.
So as opposed to kinda like separate accessory that sits on top.
It truly is kind of one of the,
just kind of sits in there.
So it's flat with the with the rest of the burners.
And it's kinda cool there too.
It's almost more of like a built in griddle.
So I think that's a some something different there that
if you use the outside, go the strong b. Yeah.
Alright. Next, we're gonna go to Kitchenade,
and that's gonna be model K SGB
nine hundred ESS. Okay.
Way expensive Yes. For what it is.
You can buy the cat fave pretty much the same price. Now,
they have a double oven only the larger oven is
up top and the smaller oven is in down below.
Yeah. Like the drawer. So as opposed to a warming drawer,
it's a baking drawer. Yeah.
It's thirty six hundred. You get a what? And,
you get the nine you get the enhanced burn of nineteen and
seventeen. Yep.
I don't like this range for the price.
I think you step down to the seven hundred series.
You don't get as hot a burners.
You still get two power burners, right?
Lose the baking drawer,
you get storage up at a thousand dollars a lot. Yeah.
That one I like, this one,
you know, not because it's terrible. You can't get see.
I'd say it's a it's a weak B for the price. Yeah.
I think it's not a valuable
it's not a good value. Yeah.
Wireless temperature probe a little bit different.
One thing to note too with kitchenade,
range here is if you do use the traditional self clean,
they don't really have that in this range.
They use what they call an aqua lift,
which is really the steam clean. Yeah.
So, you know,
get could could be debated with definitely could be better for
the oven overall, but, you know,
very different cleaning ability.
So if you're used to using that traditional self clean,
Keep in mind that this range does not have that.
So seven hundred is good.
Nine hundred is just it's a it's a weak B.
So we'll go with a B though. Just for the price. Again,
you get good oven size, you know. So So let's go with Bosch,
and we're gonna talk about their eight hundred series HGI
eight zero five six UC.
Good style.
You have a warming drawer underneath.
I don't know why people don't love warming drawers. Yeah. You know,
they gotta pay twelve hundred dollars to get a sample when
you get one in this range.
So the warm draw allows you to keep food warm up to three
hours without it turning to mush. You know,
without dehydrating it like a microwave. I really like that.
I've been sizes a little small for me at four four. Yeah.
And tops out at about an eighteen thousand Btu burners.
Big an eighteen and a fifteen.
Eighteen still the same burn as a thermal pro,
but you only get one of them. Correct.
You get a fifteen thousand, which is the same as a Wolf
pro, beyond your one of those.
But if then it really drops down, you get two five thousand.
Yeah. You're If you're simmering a lot,
this is a good range for you, but most people don't.
You're getting two five thousand B2s similar.
So really you only get two burners up top.
I like the warming drawer. I like to style.
It's only twenty five hundred dollars, but still,
I I'd see it's a big Yeah.
And this one's a little unique also on how it installs.
You know,
they are kinda almost the last of the true slide in ranges
where it overlaps the counters as well.
So some people do really like that. Really kind of last one.
Only one on this list that we're talking about today that
really has that has.
Don't. Samsung has a few miles. I like slide. I yeah.
You're making up a point.
Sliden fits over. So, you know,
your left food doesn't get him that seam,
which you could never claim because you gotta pull your
oven out, which I've never done. Yeah.
So this range is definitely kind of a little bit more basic and features.
And this is, you know, sometimes we talk benchmark
series, you definitely pay more. But on that one,
you do get a stronger burner with a twenty thousand twenty
thousand to you dual stack funny. Yeah. Temperature probe.
So better telescoping racks and things like that.
So depending on features, you could look at that,
but you're definitely paying more for it. Eight hundred
series, I'd go with a B.
I don't mention probe zoom.
I think everyone should buy a meter, you know, with those
Yeah. Three point. Those meters. The wireless I'm
unbelievable. Wireless goes right to your phone.
Go on. Alright. So next one,
we're gonna talk about Frigidaire Pro here,
and we're gonna talk model PCFG
three zero seven eight a f. I I actually I actually like this.
Yes. It's it's what? Fifteen, sixteen hundred dollars. Mhmm.
Decent So you've got, you know,
the griddle's got better BTUs in all of them except for Cafe.
You've got two power burners in addition.
I really like the range.
I I don't know anything about it because we haven't carried
it so long, but this is another strong lease shade. Yeah.
Five point six cubic feet is the story during the in the
bottom. Good looking range deal with that kind of pro style.
I feel like that look. Yeah.
For sure. But it's got the manual knobs. Yeah.
I like the electronics every once as well.
If electronics break, when was the last time a microwave
broke, I mean, Yeah.
So And they've all kinda going that way anyways at this point.
I I'd give it a strong b, if not in it. Yeah.
What do you think? Let's go big. Okay. So next,
we're gonna talk about, again, their sister brand,
kind of the higher end version here is the electrolux,
which is the ECFG
three zero six eight.
Yes.
A little different. It's a little different. You know,
it's you're you're looking at still smaller capacity in the
oven like a Bosch. So I think it's what four.
Four and a half cubic feet. Four and a half cubic feet.
Really small. Yep.
Well, compared to an LG at six point three, but, you know,
the LG is two thousand six hundred.
This is three thousand six hundred dollars.
It does give you two eighteen thousand Btu burners.
A couple twelves and a ten.
Storage run beneath thirty six hundred dollars.
I don't know why it's I think it's a decent range,
but for thirty six hundred dollars,
you can buy almost a cafe for that. So I think for features,
it's decent to be, but but for the price, I can't fathom why
anybody would spend that kind of money for this range. I'd go see.
I don't really see the value when it tops out at eighteen
thousand. Like you said, smaller oven capacity.
I mean, if it was two thousand five hundred dollars,
it should be. For sure. But but thirty six hundred dollars, it's Yeah.
Alright. Next one, we're gonna talk Becco,
and it's gonna be the model s l g r three zero
five three two s s.
Got a lot of oven modes,
five point seven cubic foot to capacity with some price now on
this because I know they dropped.
So they are kind of a little bit in transition,
but this was twenty two ninety nine with a rebate as well.
Okay. So it's like nineteen. Yeah. Seventeen.
It's got what does it have for output? It's eighteen thousand.
Eighteen thousand. Eighteen thousand.
We have a metal burner in the middle. Pearl burner.
A lot of modes got a pizza mode, pastry mode,
drawing the bottom. Mormon drawing. Mormon drawing the
bottom. You pay a thousand dollars for that.
I think I I think for the features and everything else
and people don't know Becco, I I think this is very strongly.
Absolutely. Two year, parts and labor warranty as well.
So they kinda stand behind their product.
I would definitely go solid be there.
And final one on the list is a birdazone eight,
and it's gonna be model m a s t three zero
five g a SXE.
One nineteen thousand BT burner, ten, and then two
Summer Yeah. Really.
Broilers have the capacity of the other ones.
Beautiful style. Like, this is a range of buying red.
And yellow and don't use. Right?
You know,
I just we've had experience selling Italian products in
past. And that beautiful style, I love the knobs,
the little knobs.
But, it all goes down for me when you start using it.
So I would say this is a a merciful c. Yeah. It's
definitely a look. Four point seven cubic foot.
Yeah. Sis kinda more. In line with your counters. Pro style
has six burners, but again,
those burners are really not powerful at all.
So I agree. We're gonna go with the c there.
That's it. That's all. Hey, listen, if you We gave an s.
We gave ANS. Yep.
We got an s. Alright.
We're gonna do more of the use if you like.
