Additionally, the continuous grates provide a seamless cooking surface that accommodates pots and pans of various sizes, making it easy to transition from one burner to another without lifting heavy cookware.

Additional features may include a built-in Wi-Fi connectivity option, enabling remote control and monitoring via smartphone apps. This technology allows users to receive notifications, preheat the oven remotely, and explore recipes, enhancing the cooking experience.

Safety is paramount in kitchen appliances, and the GE JGP985 does not compromise in this area. It is equipped with features like automatic shut-off and a safety valve that prevents gas leaks, ensuring peace of mind while cooking.
