Have you tried googling? I thought you could access this without a paid account? I could be wrong. I know my mom use to look at it.

Depends on what you are wanting to do with it and how much you want to spend.  I bought the cheap (in price) stove at Lowe's for around $300 and I have used it several years and it works great.

I bough my stove at a  local  store and have had it 12 years and it is still working great. It is an Estate. an off brand but  great. It is electric with a  glass top and self cleaning.  In fact my dad  loved it and  a few months ago he went and bought him one. Loves it because it is so easy to keep clean.  So far he has  had to use the self cleaning part. But when he does need it done I will go do it for him.  He has trouble seeing  the  small white on white  writing.

I didn't know you had to pay to see it.  I thought there was a way to see it for free.  And I don't know much about gas stoves.  I rented a place that had gas once.  I didn't like it at all.

I wish somebody would do that for me. I have a self cleaning stove but I am afraid to do it by myself.

I've never used the self-cleaning feature either. I have used white vinegar & baking soda to clean and it does a pretty good job.

I may try that.  I am just afraid to do it.  People say the oven gets really hot even to the point of it being scary. So I am just thinking the oven ain't that dirty. lol

I have a self cleaning oven and do use it, but, you are correct, it gets extremely hot.  I place a dish towel on top of it to remind everyone not to touch it because, to me, it feels hot enough to burn.  It also had a bad smell to it.  I only use the self cleaning feature once or twice a year, usually after the holidays when I've done a lot of baking.

I've always been scared to death to use the self cleaning feature.

lol.  I know.  I am afraid I will burn my house down.  Everybody says oh be careful.  What does that mean.  You turn it on and then you cannot stop it so I guess you just pray and hope for the best. haha
