FAQs
How long do GE gas ranges last?
On average, GE ranges last around 15 years, which is standard in the kitchen appliance industry. Your range might last longer if you care for it and address any necessary repairs as soon as they arise.
How do I know when my gas stove needs replacing?
There are a few warning signs that your gas stove is wearing out. If you have a hard time igniting it, if the flame is red or yellow instead of blue, and if the burners shut off unexpectedly, then it might be time for a new stove. You should also replace your range if your oven is unreliable and burns part of your meal while leaving the other half raw.
Which stove lasts the longest?
Gas ranges often last the longest because they have fewer components than electrical units. They are simpler, which means there are several opportunities for them to break. Simpler stoves are also usually easier to fix.
