GE Range - Gas PGS968TEMWW/ PGS968BEMBB / PGS968KEMCC — 

GE Range - Gas on Glass Slide-in white  PGS968TEMWW
I am so disappointed with the range and feel stuck with a poorly designed and dangerous product.
The cook-top was described as 1 piece glass, easy to clean. In fact it is 2 pieces with impossible to clean crevices. 
The surface becomes dangerously hot after only few minutes of use.
The unit releases so much hot air that it is uncomfortable to stand by when in use and literally heats my entire house.
The surface and vent are not easy to clean. They must be allowed to cool and the debris hardens.
The broiler spews an unbelievable amount of grease over the top of the range. (As yet I have only used it for 15 mins. I would not dare roast a turkey)
Last, but certainly not least, while  cleaning the glass cook-top last night my finger was slashed on the hidden, sharp bottom edge of the round burner cover. 
All of these things are not anything I could possibly know before use.
I purchased this range to replace a 19 year old Magic Chef which had the same features and control pad including the top vent. These problems were never an issue.
