KitchenAid Architect Series II KGRS308BSS Gas Range Review

Cooking Performance

The KitchenAid Architect Series II KGRS308BSS's ability to maintain the proper temperature impressed us greatly in our tests. Besides averaging the proper temperature—treating the user's input as injunction, not suggestion—this oven's temperature didn't vary a whole lot. Even temperatures mean even cooking, so this is something that bakers should definitely think about if considering this oven.

The rangetop tested decently well in our boiling tests, although it didn't demonstrate a very wide range of temperatures for searing and simmering. The only other flaw we found was reasonably significant: a broiler that just doesn't seem to work well.
