| lionopt1's Full Review: Maytag Gemini MGR6772BDS Stainless Steel Gas Range |
We have has this Gemini gas range for a couple years and it has been excellent at most cooking tasks. The small upper oven broiler sometimes takes 10 minutes to really get lit and cooking, which can be frustrating when trying to broil a quick meal for one, and you find that after 10 minutes the food has not started to cook. Controls are easy to use, and it is very useful range for cooking for one person or a large group. Programmable oven features make it a breeze to have food ready when guests arrive. Top tends to keep food and grease from getting into burner areas and cleaning is easy
3 weeks ago, after cooking and turning the stove off to clean it, we re-lit it for tea and when the spark to light the burners started, there was smoke and fire shooting out from one burner knob area. We turned off and shut off electrical breakers etc. Problem appears to be the igniter switch on that burner knob failed and burned up the module and wires and we are waiting for repair parts. Not something that I find acceptable for this class of product.
