Hi Lisa, the Kenmore Elite range I have has controls for cooking in a
regular oven or making the same oven converts to convection baking. I could
tell you a lot about its great options, but the only thing that is kind of a
negative to it, it has no buttons or switches. I made a template from a
plastic material named Lexan gotten at Home Depot. The range has touch spots
on the back panel. I got a friend to hold up the Lexan and mark where the
touch spots are located. Then, I had a guy drill holes for each touch spot
into the Lexan. I attached the plastic template to the back panel with
Velcro. There is not one function that I cannot perform. The manual could be
read. I know this sounds like a lot of work, but the product you get to use
is superior and has so many options.
If you want to explore this option, let me know. I can walk you through the
process.
One option is that you can enter the temperature for the recipe you want to
bake, then the time to bake, then press a spot which then in turns converts
the recipe cook time and temperature which are both lower because it then
would bake with convection air being circulated around the oven. The range
has a smooth top, but that has some snazzy options for the size of burners
(I called them hot spots). You can adjust the size of the hot spot to match
your pan, 6 inches, 9 inches, or 12 inches. Another hot spot is adjustable
if you want to cook in a Dutch oven, so that is adjustable to accommodate
Dutch ovens. There are two regular hot spots. There is a warm and hold spot
on the top. You can use the bottom drawer for a bread proofing drawer. I
could go on because there's lots more niceties. The range beeps when the
oven reaches the desired temperature. The timer beeps when it is expired. On
and on!
Good luck.

hi all,
i haven't been on here in a long time and decided to come back. for those
of you who don't know me, i am lisa filroy and i live in missouri. i love
to cook and try new recipes. which brings me to a question. i am planning

the conventional oven. any suggestions or input would be appreciated.
