Avanti Elite : DG241BS 24in Freestanding Gas Range with 4 Sealed Burners - Stainles Steel Review

I bought mine several years ago, and I hope its reliability has improved. Although the fit and finish have held up we had problems early on. The electrical system is very sensitive and sometimes the ignighterswant to keep going after the gas has been lit. The oven can unpredictably shut off especially when lowering the temperature for some cooking reason.

There is one large burner, two medium burners and a small one. This is convenient if the style of your cooking allows moving pots around for the heat intensity desired. If you want three of four uniform burners, this isn't for you.

Also, the SIZE is NOMINALLY 24" but it is actually 23 3/8", at least that's what mine measures. This is important if you are replacing a 24" range in an installed counter opening like I was. You will have a gap to fill or accept it with this range.

Warranty repair service was very good in my area...3 times. Essentially the electrical system was replaced and I still have the unexpected shut off from time to time. You can relight the open by pushing the starter. But if you don't catch the shutdown quickly, it could mess up a recipe.

I don't use the broiler. When I broil meats, I use the barby outside. It may be ok for browning or quick heat, but I don't know.

I paid half the price for mine, picked up from a local appliance dealer. In 24" you don't have too many choices, but Sears and Home Depot have one each with electrical igniters, including Tappan and Hotpoint. Neither has the stainless steel or the sealed burners.

I recommend contacting BuildersDepot.com on line or by phone before you buy for their opinion of the recent unit. I have found them to be responsive about other products. They are the supplier of this item for Amazon and you can also by direct from them. Compare prices. Maybe Amazon will beat the price with free shipping. My problems with older range may have been addressed in the years since I bought it.

Disclosure statement: I own Amazon stock and hope the Amazon does well.
