Review: If you're like me&frequently cook meals for your family&enjoy hosting large dinner parties -- but lack the budget or inclination for buying one of those complicated&expensive gourmet ranges, you'll be happy with your GE HotPoint.

Pros: A Nice Feature Package At This Price
Cons: Costly Parts Are Akwardly Mounted. Cooking Stains Between Oven Window Glass.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: The 1st inevitable"parts failure"occurred at 26 months, rather early to my mind. The"Bake"Igniter [replacing the old pilot light] simply ceased functioning and close examination revealed no possable reasion [spills, etc.] why this should have... Read Full Review by j3f3r, Apr 29, 2008
Hotpoint RGB745--My take on this
Author's Rating:
Pros: I really like this range despite negative reviews by other people that I read.
Cons: The negative reviews by others made me think twice. It is NOT a Professional range.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: I've had this for 3 months now. I waited till now to have time to test it well. So far, I like it. I do a reasonable amount of cooking&baking. I bought the one with the black top, which I really like. I can take off the burner pans&pop them into the... Read Full Review by thinki, Feb 4, 2008
Author's Rating:
Pros: Burners on top excellent.
Cons: Uneven cooking. Inaccurate temp.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: Everything up top works fine, but the oven bakes very uneven. One half of your pie will be burnt, the other 1/2 warm. Also, the temp is about 25 degrees off. Should have paid more for... Read Full Review by ldc50, Jan 2, 2007
Don't bother with this one !!!!
Author's Rating:
Pros: Pros well that is a hard one...... It cooks that it.
Cons: You name it, there is an issue with everything.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: The grates are grey and chip easy. They get very dirty in the creases and unable to be cleaned. The grey shows all the cooked on dirt. The cook top gets very hot so you cannot allow any children near the stove or they will burn their sensitive skin. The... Read Full Review by giftofwisdom, Sep 19, 2006
Author's Rating:
Pros: ECONOMICAL GAS RANGE THAT DOES SERVE ITS PURPOSE.
Cons: BURNER COVER DOES CHIP. THE SELF-CLEAN FOR HEAVY SPILLS, YOU MUST ASSIST (ok).
The Bottom Line: null
Review: THE IGNITOR! THESE COMPANIES CERTAINLY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING WHEN THEY ELIMINATED THE PILOT LIGHT. APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS AFTER PURCHASE, YOU WILL NEED TO REPLACE YOUR IGNITOR. BETWEEN THE PARTS AND INDEPENDENT... Read Full Review by economical1, Jul 12, 2006
Good, solid workhorse stove with a bad oven vent
Author's Rating:
Pros: Simple, accurate cooking and baking/ broiling.
Cons: A dangerously hot oven vent exhausting onto the stovetop. Short-lived oven igniter.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: I bought this stove/ oven after a lot of price/features comparison. The stove and oven cook well, with accurate temperature. Easy to use, simple controls, timer. The only serious problem with this stove is the intensely hot oven vent that exhausts... Read Full Review by peter100, Jun 10, 2006
Author's Rating:
Pros: Trays under burners, easy cleaning.
Cons: Excessive Range top heat.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: I thought I bought the stove of my dreams, I was wrong. This stove is dangerous. First when using the burners the range top becomes extremely HOT, a child could burn their hand on it. Next the vent for the oven is on top of the stove (under the clock)... Read Full Review by yenta, Dec 30, 2005
Author's Rating:
Pros: Easy to adjust, easy to control and easy to clean... that says it all!
Cons: Well, the pot supports stain easily and aren't easy to clean. Hmmm...
The Bottom Line: This is a good stove for a reasonable price.
Review: It started as a boneheaded mixup. My wife and I came home and immediately smelled gas from the vicinity of our stove. It was a drop-in model with a broken timer, something that we had considered replacing for some time. Without any further examination of... Read Full Review by pvreditor, Apr 27, 2005
Author's Rating:
Pros: Cooks food
Cons: Bad quality enamel finish that chips easily. Self-cleaning does not do a good job.
The Bottom Line: null
Review: Even after the 4hours 20 minutes self-cleaning, the oven is still dirty. Sponging off the ashes is the easy part, then I have to clean off all the grease on the door and corners that the self-cleaning did not get. The white enamel finish on top of the...

Sorry to say, I'm Disappointed
Author's Rating:
Pros: Digital Display, easy to use up/down keypad controls, excellent broiling
Cons: Mediocre self cleaning, uneven baking/roasting results.
The Bottom Line: A basic range with an excellent cooktop and broiler but mediocre self cleaning and uneven baking/roasting performance.
Review: I bought this range to replace a Caloric Self Cleaning Range that required repairs to the electronic igniters on a regular basis. I selected this range due to its high rating by a leading consumer magazine. Positives The unit, though basic, has... Read Full Review by jgoldenboy, Mar 27, 2005
UPDATE: All you want and all you really need for a song.
Author's Rating:
Pros: Fine performance and the most desirable features at an exceptional price.
Cons: The first self-clean cycle can be a smelly experience.
The Bottom Line: A perennial Consumer Reports"Best Buy", the Hotpoint RGB745 gas range cooks like a"pro"range while roasting the competition. The price is a steal.
Review: Heat is heat and metal is metal. In a double-blind taste test, you probably wouldn’t be able to discern between an egg fried in the most expensive French-sounding cookware on a $4,000“epicurean” gas range and one cooked in a Farberware... Read Full Review by JoeEkaitis, Jul 1, 2008
Appliance Manager picks the best!!
Author's Rating:
Pros: High output and simmer burner, self cleaning.
Cons: none
The Bottom Line: null
Review: A leading consumer organization picked this as the best value under $600, and I agree. This range has 2 9500 btu burners, a 12000 btu high output burner, and a 5500 btu simmer burner. Most ranges have 4 burners of around 9000 btu output. The... Read Full Review by spacecenter, Jan 6, 2001
