NOTES (and am happy to answer questions):
(1) We are not able to deliver. The range is on the second floor of our house. Jonathan can help get it down the stairs, but more strong bodies will be needed.
(2) The link is NOT our range but is a very similar model. In addition to the specs listed at link, our range has self-cleaning oven (up to 4 hours), cooking timer, clock, oven temperature 170F-550F, low & high broiler settings, warm & hold setting, 2 shelves & 7 shelf positions. Dimensions: Ht 46″/Width 30″/Depth 26”
(3) Our range has some flaws: The oven door handle screws need to be tightened every couple of weeks. We don’t have a manual, but the range is very easy to use.
