Not sure how I feel about this

I went to the pre-settlement demonstration meeting today. Alone, since my husband was out of town for work, & it was a total brain overload. If there was ever a meeting that I wish I didn't have to be "responsible" for remembering all of this stuff, it was this one!

One of the things that came up was our range. I was just notified at the meeting that the range that we special requested was not manufactured and they substituted it for (a higher valued) version. This shouldn't be a problem, but I spent a lot of time researching & selecting our appliances and I'm a little upset that they swapped it for something else without even mentioning it before it was installed. While I shouldn't be complaining since the "upgraded" range cost more, it gets less favorable reviews. Hmph.

  1. What are the reviews saying in comparison to the one you chose? It looks great but will it do the job you were anticipating?

    1. The complaints seem to be poor quality, that the door sags & doesn't seem well constructed, that the metal on the top oven door expanded when used and they couldn't even close the door. Some major flaws, it seems :(.

  2. Is that a G.E. Profile double range? We specially requested a certain model also, I am hoping we get it now!

    1. It is. The one we requested was the GE JGB870SETSS & what we ended up with was the GE PGB995SETSS.

  3. Its not right for them to determine what range to put in your house, they should have given you the courtesy to make that decision. I hope its not as bad as the reviews.

  7. It is a beautiful range, but if it is not what you wanted I would definitely speak to them about that before settlement.
