We are having a propane range and oven installed. Do any of you have
comments (good or bad) on particular brands/models?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Jeff:

Are you replacing an existing propane stove or are you starting from
scratch?

We bought a Force 10 propane stove with a thermostat in the oven and a built
in broiler (in the top of the oven The older Force 10s didn't have the oven
thermostat which caused some people problems in baking.  When I was growing
up our gas stove at home only had low, medium and high, so I grew up with
it.  The stove is stainless steel and very easy to keep clean. Top is a
solid grate so you can drag your pans over to the side and not have them tip
over.  Grate lifts up on a hinge so you can clean the top.  The burners are
sealed.  It has one large and two small burners which were adequate for
anything we were cooking.  The oven was very adequate.  The broiler works
great .  I love the whole thing especially the ease of cleaning.

I was wondering what kind of boat you have, or is this to be installed
somewhere else?
