Thank you for the review. I just purchased this unit for my new house. There was not a display model on the floor; so, I had to rely on reviews. I do believe I will be amazed by it. Thank you for your time putting this review together.

[@michaelbezos2969]

So after 2 years I finally figured where they "Decor Guard" goes on my gas version of your electric stove looking at your video. Nothing in manual at all as to its placement. Thank you for taking the time explaining your stove. Haven't slept in two years thinking about that sucker (not really). Be safe and thanks again.

[@kpv123]

Thank you, great review! You're right, there aren't very many reviews that show how to use it, only comparison reviews with other models. good job with all the features. I learned more practical data from your video than all the others combined

[@masculinepalmtree]

Great review! Thanks for mentioning that the knobs are easily removed for cleaning

[@andybub45]

We just bought the gas version online. We bought an LG microwave when our 10 year old GE went out and we are really impressed, so we decided to go LG again.

[@mybobbleheads]

how are you enjoying your gas version?

[@pavelow235]

Looks great, I got the gas version, hope it works well for me as much as it has for you.

I picked up the dual oven version yesterday. Got it from Best Buy as an open box, originally priced at 2400, on sale for 1900, walked out paying 890$, plus 159$ for 5 year extended warranty. I freaking love this oven!!

[@mookie840]

Curious if you still feel the same about it? We're picking up our double oven open box from best buy this weekend. I was shocked at how cheap it was!

[@rileycrain5784]

Nicole Paling we still love it. There are a few things worth bringing up. The temps needed to be adjusted, the bottom oven was about 15 degrees hotter, I searched on KZbin and found how to adjust the heat. Also, the beautified glass top changes after a few times cooking, hard to explain but it never looks like it did brand new. Lastly we have a small chip in the “stainless steel” paint right in front. If you are getting this oven at a fraction of the price it is a no brainer. Both ovens during thanksgiving and Christmas crushed it! It is beautiful to look at as well. Congrats on the purchase.

[@spmissick]

Thanks for the review. Do I need to use induction pots for this stove?

[@lapagemakeup]

How do we use the downdraft in the back when cooking on the stove? Moved into a house with this stove last year and still can’t figure it out.

[@mybobbleheads]

As far as I know this stove model does not have a down draft vent. The vent at the top back is for venting the oven into the airspace above. I use a regular vent fan above the stove. A downdraft would have to be vented below and to the outdoors

[@brettroberts567]

Is the filler plate removable so it can be cleaned? I'm trying not I clean the grease and some crumbs that have gotten in there.

[@mybobbleheads]

I assume that you are talking about the vent at the back. You have to slide the stove out far enough to access with a screwdriver, approx 8-10 inches.. You need to remove the spacer plate if you installed it and then there are two more screws, top left and right that will allow the vent cover to be removed.

[@helbertaguas2465]

Your LG is impressive, but when u use frying pans on top of the stove, do the vents against the wall directly behind the burners get greasy, how do u clean those open vents, all the stores I went to had no answer. Thanks n enjoy your new LG

[@mybobbleheads]

I may not fry food as much as others and when I do I use the front burners so it hasn't been an issue however there is some stuff in there right now..I only notice if I lean over and look and that's after 3.5 years..I will likely use a rag with some dish soap and wrap it around a stick or pencil...kind of frustrating for sure. kind of like trying to clean car vents

I will never buy another LG appliance as long as I live, and whenever I am at Home Depot, I make a POINT of engaging customers looking at LG appliances to let them know to steer far clear of that brand.

Is the top scratched in your video? I saw reviews saying it scratches easily, is that true for you?

[@mybobbleheads]

There may be some very small scratches but depending on your lighting situation you may not notice them. after you get used to how to clean a glass top it's not too bad. We do boil stuff over more than on our old school burners but we are getting better and it easier than cleaning the old style where you need to remove the element and drip pan.

[@mommom92478]

Lots of scratches for 2 weeks of use. I have had a smooth top cheap GE that is 16 years old that has less scratches. Looks like LG scratches quickly and easily.

[@kpv123]

I'm also wondering if that larger mark on the right front burner was a scratch or baked on dirt. I think the latter is the case especially in view of his comment

Hey Bob, I just had a problem with my Oven knob. It appears as if all the stove knobs have metal shafts but the oven knob has a plastic shaft for some reason. This shaft broke, and I am looking for a way to repair it.

[@mybobbleheads]

Sorry to hear that. I am not a parts or repair guy. I would start with a local appliance parts shop. I just checked mine and they are all silver except the oven which is black but when I take a magnet to any of them they are not magnetic so none of them are steel. They may be a type of aluminum or composite material. Often when electrical connections are behind a switch then for safety the components will not be steel to prevent shock. Whishing you luck on your part search and hoping it is not like a washing machine switch which can cost hundreds

@@mybobbleheads I thought that it was weird that the only plastic (Black) stem was the one connected to the oven. The rest are all hard non conductive metal.

We are calling an electrician to add a new outlet but saw you had a piece that matches on the back that closes the gap? Where did you get that? TYIA!

I just bought this and waiting for delivery. Does this oven have any kind of exhaust ? My old oven had an exhaust that funnels out to bottom of floor underneath similar to a dryer. Or is just connecting the power supply and pushing it in?

all depends on your local building code. I have a hood fan above my stove that vents to the outdoors as it is code here. The oven has a vent to allow air to escape but the exhausted air stays in the room

[@mybobbleheads]

They kind of hide it in the cardboard/Styrofoam packaging. it's kind of thin and would bend or scratch easy if it wasn't packaged well.. They should make note of it in the instruction for unpacking however most people have it delivered and the drivers take the packaging with them

I am about to get one of these ,do you recommend it.? Have you had any trouble with yours?

[@mybobbleheads]

Haven't had any troubles however it is quite the learning curve from an element style stove. My wife has things boil over a lot and can't seem to figure out how to get the heat low enough. The element cycles on and off to protect the glass from damage so it gets hot then cool/repeat. Quite challenging to maintain a simmer.

[@lynlalalala]

Turn the oven knob off before the oven lock will work.

[@averdibello]

FYI - If you use a Silpat, or something like it, between your pan and the glass, you won't have to clean the stovetop. They are unaffected by the induction elements. Wish.com, has larger silicone mats that will cover the entire top.

That's too bad but obvious to me yours is a different model. My numbers on the dial are all black and easy too see just like the font on the screen I am reading while typing this reply. I do however find that boiling takes long unless using the front left burner ( I now heat water in my kettle to speed the process) . The oven preheat is very similar to my old stove and unless baking I only wait 5 minutes and then adjust cook times as needed.

[@joseedumont3231]

I hate mine, had a burnt mark on the glass, scrub too much ( never had this prob before) it left a white mark on the stove 😡, the stainless marks too easy and using the oven for multiples batches is a nightmare….soo, I don’t recommend it at all.

[@mybobbleheads]

Appreciate the honesty. Like I said in previous comments my wife doesn't like it much either but I do most of the cooking ad she likes to cook from the other room. She is getting better at using this stove though now that I got rid of her favorite(crap) pots and thin baking sheets.. Definitely are better options but they can be pricey and they also may have flaws.. Still using mine daily and It must be 4 years now and barely any marks. The stainless looks brand new however like our other stainless it requires weekly cleaning especially with oil splatters

[@marisamarandola1182]

It’s actually dangerous actually you don’t have lean into. Even if you brush against it can turn on. Not safe feature for kids. That one thing I dislike and not having a bottom element is a disadvantage not a great way to clean the oven. I had a jennair this is nowhere the quality.

They offer an extra 3 years for $170 giving me a total of 5 years. I have another 60 days to decide but seeing that it has a touch screen control and a unique back element I will likely bite the bullet and get it. I have dealt with LG before on another appliance and the local repair outlet was great. from experience almost half of appliances with fancy electronics these days fail within the first 2 years and if they make it that long they are usually good to go for a lot longer. fingers crossed.
