Each appliance has been meticulously designed to create an atmosphere where people like to gather and love to cook. Because of its small size and narrow dimensions, standard baking dishes and sheets won't fit in the left oven cavity, so keep that in mind when planning your dinners.One look at the GE Cafe kitchen and you'll feel as if you've been transported behind the scenes of your favorite casual dining experience. However, there is a trade-off, and the smaller left oven has limited utility beyond cooking smaller dishes or warming up leftovers. The second oven has limited utilityīased on the massive right oven, it’s clear that C2Y486P3TD1 is designed with caterers-or those who entertain a lot-in mind, and we can certainly see the appeal of having a large 5.75 cubic foot oven. The oven took just under 11 minutes to reach 350☏ in the standard bake setting, while the convection setting took 13 minutes. The main oven took ages to reach the target temperature of 350☏, possibly due to the massive capacity. This model is no exception to the trend of electric ovens taking a while to preheat.Īlthough they sport superior heating evenness, electric ovens tend to take longer to preheat than gas, and the C2Y486P3TD1 continued this trend with an interminably slow preheat. The range is Wi-Fi compatible, and users can control simple oven settings like temperature and timers from their smartphone or tablet. On the other hand, the right-hand oven is massive at 5.75-cubic feet, and large enough to fit full-sized catering pans.ĭespite its pro-style trappings, the Café C2Y486P3TD1 is no slouch in the smart tech department. In fact, the smaller oven was so tiny that we couldn’t fit in our standard size baking sheets. The left-hand oven is relatively small at only 2.5-cubic feet. The grates over the spiral burner have a large gap to house a wok.īelow the rangetop are two electric ovens that both feature true convection. In addition to two standard burners, the rangetop houses two 18,000 BTU high-heat burners, a dual ring burner, and a spiral burner, which GE claims distributes heat more evenly around the bottom of pots and pans. You’ll be spoilt for choice with the C2Y486P3TD1’s versatile rangetop, which features six burners and a built-in griddle pan. All around versatilityĭecked out with tons of features, the range has so much to offer. However, the resulting cookies were almost perfectly even, and overall there was no noticeable difference between the trays. We almost always expect to see, at the very least, darker sections from the cookies baked on the lower rack. We also tested the range's multi-rack cooking by baking two batches of cookies simultaneously using the upper and lower rack. Both the standard and convection bake settings resulted in perfectly even cookies. To test the oven evenness, we baked a few batches of cookies using the standard and convection oven modes. Our tests showed impressive consistency and baking evenness when using the standard and convection settings. While there were a few minor issues with the oven (more on that later), the C2Y486P3TD1 succeeded where it counted and offered some of the best baking performance we have ever seen.
The oven offers extraordinary evenness and consistency in its bake.Ĭonsidering the gobsmacking price range, we had high expectations for the C2Y486P3TD1, particularly in the all-important area of baking evenness.
