I did read quite a few reviews from owners. The only real negative I read was that the top stains easily. That part scares me.Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1140104829519813102006-02-16T10:47:00.000-05:002006-02-16T10:47:00.000-05:00Does only Maytag make these kind of stoves.

I always find that useful when I am deciding on something.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01968021817824740557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1140021416088471182006-02-15T11:36:00.000-05:002006-02-15T11:36:00.000-05:00Good idea, Kathy.

I am quite comfortable with how my oven works and understand the convection takes some getting used to.<BR/>Jenn, I am happy to hear they don't have problems with the stains, etc. That is my biggest concern right now.Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1140020750022366892006-02-15T11:25:00.000-05:002006-02-15T11:25:00.000-05:00Kathy, I am laughing reading your comment. Missio...Kathy, I am laughing reading your comment. Mission critical for feeding your small village would be oven space! *grins*<BR/><BR/>Zoey, I have friends that have that type of stove and it is fantastic for entertaining! <BR/><BR/>I have only seen the black topped ones, and they clean up okay. <BR/><BR/>And as for the initial expense - you may pay a bit more, but you will be doing your bit as a good citizen by only using the energy you actually need. This is not something that has any kind of personal payoff (you probably won't see a huge difference in your energy bill), but I like to feel I'm being virtuous!Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15597630887713954960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1140015700188138882006-02-15T10:01:00.000-05:002006-02-15T10:01:00.000-05:00Zoey, if you are worried about the size of the big...Zoey, if you are worried about the size of the bigger oven, take your turkey roasting pan to the store and just try it out. That's what I did when I needed to shop for a new range (and mine did die on me). I would have loved to have gotten a convection oven, but that put the price over my limit. We are always trying to cram too much in the oven, and I think convection would help things cook more evenly, and faster, too. I wound up getting a Maytag Gas Precision Touch Control 700 just about 2 years ago and I haven't had any problems with it.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11106962533729909868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1139999088540748212006-02-15T05:24:00.000-05:002006-02-15T05:24:00.000-05:00Hi dianne,From what people say,it's a little price...Hi dianne,<BR/>From what people say,it's a little pricey, but since I have not bought one in 27 years I don't know what the prices are these days! <BR/>If you go out and see one, let me know what you think and if the oven is indeed big enough for a turkey (they say it is).Diana LaMarrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11324428666401187803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1139981232204925462006-02-15T00:27:00.000-05:002006-02-15T00:27:00.000-05:00Actually the bisque is about $1050.Actually the bisque is about $1050.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335147609261707774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6735463.post-1139980928043449672006-02-15T00:22:00.000-05:002006-02-15T00:22:00.000-05:00I was just looking at these just now.

Personally, I like anything I can clean in one swipe of the sponge.<BR/>Hope it is big enough for a turkey and has a broiler. One thing I would love is a warming oven.Diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00335147609261707774noreply@blogger.com
