The Electrolux EW30GF65GS is rated highly by pros and users alike for its simmering, broiling and baking functions, though it's slower than some other ranges at bringing water to a boil. One expert reviewer praises this range highly for its quality and attention to details, such as the Luxury-Glide racks that slide smoothly on ball bearings and the Luxury-Hold oven door that stays put in any position. Users also praise this range, especially the full-cooktop grate (which makes it easier to move pans between burners) and the customizable cooking settings. Their main complaint: The stainless-steel finish discolors and scratches easily. Although this Electrolux range is an excellent performer, the LG LRG3095ST (*Est. $1,175) gets equally good ratings and costs significantly less.
The Electrolux EW30GF65GS is included in the latest round of range tests at ConsumerReports.org and is named a best buy at ConsumerGuide.com. We also found about 30 comments on the manufacturer's website. The J.D. Power and Associates' 2010 Home Appliance Study is useful for evaluating the performance of the Electrolux brand as a whole, though this specific model is not rated.
