This is a great range with a lot of nice features. Here is why I didn't give it a 5. First, they call it a slide in but it's really a free standing range, because there is no lip that covers the surrounding counter top and gives a true built-in look. Luckily I knew that from reading other reviews and was OK with it but if you expecting the same look as a true slide in, it would be a disappointment. On the plus side, the trim for the back is included, many ranges sell the trim for several hundred dollars. I bought this range because I wanted the knobs in the front and I love the big professional look knobs.
The other downside to this range is the second oven. I would have been happy with a warming drawer, but couldn't find all the other features I wanted in a range with a WD so I settled for this "baking drawer." I've only used it once so far, but it took forever to heat up and forever to bake two potatoes. LG tells you not to put stuff directly on the floor, to use the rack so that kind of limits it use as a warming drawer as it's pretty shallow but I think I'll still experiment with how well it will work for that.
Last issue is the cooling fan. When you use the oven the cooling fan blows out the front onto where you are standing. I think it's supposed to keep the electronics cool but as noted in other reviews, it continues to run for a long time after you turn the oven off. It's not super loud but you can hear it from another room, which is annoying. My husband discovered that if you crack the oven door and allow it to cool, it will shut off much sooner.
Aside from those things, I love it! Racks are beautiful and easy to operate, they were one of the big attractants for me. Burners are great, very fast. One of the really nice things about the cook top is that it is not a smooth glossy black. Everyone I know who has that, hates it because it never looks clean. This one has some tiny grayish speckles that break up the gloss and make it a lot easier to keep looking good.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Banana Great electric range.
We bought this LG range along with 2 other LG appliances so all would match. So far we are very satisfied with this range. The multiple oven racks come in very handy - I especially like the glide-out rack for ease of putting heavy pans in and taking them out. Baking on 3 racks at a time worked good. I love the triple burner - finally a large burner that fits our large frypans and kettles! There are a few negatives: 1. The timer/alarm volume is too low - very hard to hear. 2. When we slid this range into the space from our last "slide-in" range, there is a gap on both sides and back. Is there a "trim kit" available? 3. The oven fan stays on "cooling" the oven for too long after the oven is turned off. The noise is rather annoying. Other than these complaints, the oven and burners work great. Very happy with performance.

Rated 4 out of 5 by mylien714 I love it!
Owned since Nov 2012.One of the things I love about my kitchen. Great looking professional knobs, adjustable burners, great looking appliance.I believe I have used every function from convection bake, broil, warming drawer everything works great.-what I don't understand is why 5th warming burner has multiple settings on dial, but only functions as on or off. Also it's a shame they do not offer a trim kit. Which is why I did not give it a 5

Rated 4 out of 5 by Don B Nice looking stove but....
Very nice, professional-looking stove.
Two annoying problems with this unit. First, the oven fan stays on for 45-60 minutes to "cool" the unit after you are finished with the oven. Even when you did not use the excellent convection mode. If your kitchen opens up into the family room like ours, the noise of the oven fan is VERY annoying. Way too loud. Totally unacceptable. We bought a very quiet LG dishwasher to have peace after dinner is done. The dishwasher is excellent, quietest I have ever owned. Too bad the oven fan is so loud and cannot be turned off.
Second, it is a real stretch to call this a "two oven" stove. The lower oven is more like a warming rack. It takes half an hour to warm up to a temperature most foods need for baking. No broiling. My previous dual oven stove was from another manufacturer. The smaller upper oven heated up very fast and had broiler capability too. Having two ovens was a key feature we were looking for in a new stove. Definitely fails on that one.
The LG oven's owners manual does identify the heating times for the lower oven. Unfortunately, one does not normally read the owners manual of every product they are considering. When you buy a "four door" car, you expect that all four doors are equally functional.
