This Frigidaire Gas Range with a Self Cleaning Oven, five burners and a warmer drawer is probably my best Craigslist find EVER!  Retails for $1,600, got it from Craigslist, six months old for...drumroll please....$700.  I think it works just as great as an oven that costs twice the price.

I love to cook, I mean I really love to cook, we have a big family and I cook for my husband's fire station too at least every couple of weeks.  This oven is like a dream to work with, it cooks everything perfectly, you can increase the temp by one degree, ONE DEGREE, how fabulous is that!  The oven is self-cleaning, I wish my house was self-cleaning!

I'd never used a convection oven before and was a bit suspect, but now I love it, I can roast a chicken to perfection in under an hour!

I was a bit worried about the Stainless Steel showing marks but this is a new easy care kind, no need to purchase a special stainless steel clearner, 409 or Windex does the job.

There's a fab feature on the top, a cast iron removeable griddle, you can cook eggs, bacon, pancakes, burgers on it etc, and because it's cast iron the heat is distributed evenly.

I think my favourite feature is the warmer drawer, it keeps your plates, sauces, food, pets (just kidding!), nice and warm while everything's coming together for dinner.
