The oven of the GE JP989SKSS features a generous capacity that allows users to cook multiple dishes at once without sacrificing quality. It employs advanced convection technology, which circulates hot air throughout the oven for faster and more even cooking results. This capability is particularly advantageous for baking, ensuring that pastries rise beautifully and roasts cook thoroughly.

Another notable technology in this range is the edge-to-edge cooktop design. This feature provides a seamless surface, allowing for easy movement of pots and pans across the entire cooktop. Moreover, the surface is made from easy-to-clean stainless steel, making maintenance a breeze.

The GE JP989SKSS also offers smart features, allowing users to control their oven remotely through a smartphone app. This technology enables cooks to preheat the oven, set timers, and receive alerts, providing greater flexibility in managing meal preparation.

Safety is a priority with features like the auto shut-off capability, which automatically turns off the oven after a set period, preventing any potential hazards. The range also includes a self-cleaning function, simplifying the process of maintaining a spotless oven.
