Customer Reviews for Maytag Gemini 6.7 cu. ft. Double Oven Electric Range with Self-Cleaning Convection Oven in Stainless Steel

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Other than a controller that went bad and 2 burners that burned out (I was able to repair them) it was worked like I wanted

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought 4 years ago and no issues, two ovens are so useful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have owned two of these and will be purchasing our third early next year. The bottom oven only gets used for Thanksgiving. The top oven is our little piece of heaven. We cook everything in the top over. It heats up in about 1/3 the time. It uses very little electricity compared to our old ovens. We love this guy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Among all the ovens we have tried over the years, this is the very best. The double oven concept makes it easier for us to use the smaller oven for cookies and other cooking whereas the bigger one is used for roasting turkey, beef, etc. Most convenient and user-friendly oven we have ever had.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve had this for over 6 years now and it is awesome! We live in Florida and love the top smaller oven space for quick family meals, roasting veggies, etx. It doesn’t heat up the whole house. We use both for the holidays. This is a huge space saver and removes the need for the huge wall double ovens and the counter top small taster oven! Get it you won’t be disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my new Maytag Double Oven Eletric Range. So simple to work, very quiet and the Power Boost feature is a wonderful addition - boiling water was never so quick and easy!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Happy with our choice, looked at other brands and read reviews, best choice for our budget.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this range for about a month and all features are as expected. Love the small oven! For two people this is the best feature. The oven heats up quickly and bakes/broils efficiently.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have used both top and bottom ovens at the same time two different temps. loving it You will too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very please with this stove! I bought the whole set.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not sure how I like how to set the timer and oven temperature. Maybe there is a quicker way that I haven't figured out yet but right now it is an inconvenience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought the whole appliance set since our first were maytag also and never had any issues with em.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Most of the time, it's just my husband and I. We really don't need to heat up a large oven. An added bonus - The small oven is a breeze to keep clean.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this range in Dec and did not realize how much I would use the small oven

I was lucky enough to own the double oven Gemini from 2003, I just replaced it with this version and can say they are not of the same quality. Sure missing the toasting option for the top oven. The controls are not as intuitive and the top surface not as easy to keep clean. The rolling oven rack no longer exist, sad just not the same product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this range to replace an older electric range with traditional coil type burners. We were concerned about the glass cooktop durability, and being able to prevent it from getting scratched and dirty. It is very durable and does not scratch easily. It is also very easy to clean, and even the most stubborn cooked on spills are easily removed using a cleaning kit designed for these types of surfaces; a process that takes no more than 3 minutes, once a month. The double oven is awesome. I recommend to everyone now purchasing a range with two ovens, it is hands down worth the premium.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great capacity and easy to use. Very attractive, as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my double oven. I generally use the smaller oven and save on electricity. Having two ovens came in handy over Thanksgiving. I am looking forward to having two ovens this weekend when I bake cookies for Christmas. I also love having the warming burner on top of the stove. I would highly recommend this oven.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thanksgiving everything went so smooth cooking with both ovens performing excellent and with all the features it made everything go smooth and fficient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it 7 months ago and it's working great. Matches my other appliances that I bought as replacement s

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We want the two ovens and without a large remodel this is the only way to get that done. The pros are; both ovens work well, stove top works well. All heating elements warm up very fast. The lower oven is a convention oven which does cook more even and a little faster. The cons are; the lower oven is low, it’s the nature of the beast. The timers / clocks all have to be set by the minute, when you’re cooking a 2.5 hour turkey it’s a pain. All and all the stove works well.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) The upper oven has freed up a considerable amount of counter space. I was able to remove a counter-top oven I was using almost daily; now the Maytag has taken over and is doing a great job>

I already wrote a previous review, but I left out one thing. After you set the oven temperature, and press the "Start" button, you get a message on a screen telling you to press the start button again. Very irritating. It is also irritating to have to keep pressing buttons to set the temperature in 5 degree intervals. The previous model, you could punch in the numbers for the exact temperature that you wanted.

I had an older Maytag Gemini which I really liked. So I bought this one. Bad idea. Apparently Maytag took a great oven and made it mediocre. The old model had a separate light control for each oven. This oven has only one switch for both lights. So you have an extra light on if you are only using one oven. The previous model had a two-stage telescoping oven rack, this has only has the simple racks. There is one burner that is not marked simply as "lo-med-high", rather, two cryptic notations marked as "melt", and "power boost". Read the manual to figure that one out! I haven't tried the convection oven yet, but apparently the fan is supposed to make up for the fact that there is only one heating element in each oven. The previous model had two elements in each oven. How a convection oven is supposed to cook food 30% faster with 50% of the heat is beyond my understanding. The math just doesn't add up. But apparently, convection oven is supposed to be the latest technology. We shall see. Oh, one more thing, it takes forever to boil water. I am assuming this is because the burners keep turning on and off by themselves.

Everything looks Great so far !!

Overall this is a great range, especially for the price. It looks great, even though our kitchen is white and this range is stainless & black. It is well designed and well built. A big plus for us buying this unit, is that it only needs 40 Amps of current (same as our old regular single-oven range), so I didn't have to install new wiring to make it work. This may not seem important, but it would be hundreds of $$ to have new wires pulled and a new outlet installed. This is ultimately why I chose this unit. The flat cook-top makes pan cooking - can cleanup - easy and predictable, with control knobs that feel good in the hand and burners that are powerful, well controlled, and sensibly arranged. Both ovens work as expected. They come to tempurature quickly, and have cooked everything we've tried more or less perfectly. If I had to pick something as a negative, I'd say the User Manual is somewhat vague and seems to be written to cover a whole group of models rather than the specific one we have. This, along with the below issues has created some minor confusion in our house. Even with the oddities I mention here, I'm still very happy with this range, and feel it is well worth the cost. One of the control knobs (right-front) has a setting for "Melt", and one of the burners (left-rear) is labeled "Melt", but that knob doesn't control that burner, and the manual is not very helpful in that regard, so... huh? In addition, one knob (right-front) has a setting marked "Power Boost", but I can't tell if that applies to that burner all the time, or only if the knob is pointed right at that marking. The other end of that setting span is marked "med low", but that just confuses things more. I feel that there is some logic to all of this, but that I just can't work it out. A better manual could likely clarify things quite a bit.

Delivered well wrapped. Works, looks great. No wire. So had to purchase and install wire. Why selling appliances without wire is ridiculous. You wouldn't buy a toaster or vacuum without it. Not sure if worth the extra money but convection oven is nice along with 2 separate ovens.

Sorry I purchased this only 2 weeks ago, hate the top, it shows every little mark. Also the stainless is always showing fingerprints. Wish I would have gotten smugeproof.
