The LG LRG3095ST gets high marks from both professional testers and users for its baking, broiling and simmering performance. Its high heat setting, however, appears to be a bit underpowered; it takes longer than some ranges to bring water to a boil. Its self-cleaning cycle is also a bit weak compared to those on most electric ranges. The oven is spacious -- 5.4 cubic feet -- and has a convection feature, and the cooktop has sealed burners with a range of power settings. The LG LRG3095ST has a stainless-steel finish, but black and white versions are available for about $50 less. User reviews for this range are overwhelmingly positive, but we did see a few scattered complaints about durability. Most of these are about the plastic control knobs, which have been replaced with metal knobs on the current version of the stove, but we also saw a few reports of flaking enamel and easily stained burner heads. If the LG's four-figure price tag is a problem for you, the Galaxy 60712 (*Est. $250) is a budget range that gets good marks from users, but this bare-bones model has no extra features and hasn't been included in any professional tests.

The LG LRG3095ST is included in range tests at ConsumerReports.org. It also receives about 140 comments from users at HomeDepot.com, Sears.com and AJMadison.com, with overall ratings between 4.5 and 5 stars out of a possible 5. We also consulted the annual appliance survey from J.D. Power and Associates for information about the LG brand as a whole.
