What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is inconsistent about the surface material and dimensions. The title says black glass-ceramic and feature text describes black tempered glass, while specifications list stainless steel. Dimensions are given as 21"D x 30"W x 4.45"H, but another installation passage says 29.92 in. W x 20.08 in. D x 2.4 in. H. That passage gives a cutout of 28.58 in. W x 18.54 in. D. Confirm the correct surface, unit dimensions and cutout requirements for this model before purchase or installation. The listing says it is factory-set for natural gas and requires qualified installation for propane conversion. Check appliance clearances and below-counter oven compatibility in both installation manuals.
