| masons's Full Review: Maytag Gemini MGR6772BDS Stainless Steel Gas Range |
I thought this was the smartest gas appliance out there and could not wait to have it in my home and start using it. It is in many ways the best use of space I have seen and people with variable needs will find choosing between the small oven and the large over an advantage.
It has a fatal flaw. The broiler takes between 15 and 22 minutes to ignite. The top oven chamber must be preheated to 400-450 degrees before the broiler igniter will go onto light the gas element.
No one should have to wait 20 minutes for a broiler, most charcoal fires take less time than that.
If you don't broil ever, it could be a perfect appliance. If you broil and choose gas for speed, this in not the appliance to look at.
Its sister appliances by Jennaire and soon Amana have the self same system.
