PGS968 specifications

The GE PGS968 is a versatile and high-performing range that embodies advanced cooking technology and user-centric design. This model is a part of GE's Profile series, known for blending modern aesthetics with innovative features that cater to the demands of contemporary kitchens.

One of the standout features of the PGS968 is its dual-fuel capability. This means that it utilizes both gas for the cooktop and electric for the oven, providing users with the precision of gas cooking combined with the even baking of electric heat. With a total of five burners on the cooktop, the PGS968 offers flexible cooking options, including a powerful 20,000 BTU burner ideal for rapid boiling and sautéing. The inclusion of a simmer burner ensures that delicate sauces can be prepared with utmost care.

The oven is equipped with true European convection technology, which circulates hot air for even and consistent baking results. This feature helps to eliminate hot spots and guarantees that baked goods rise evenly, making it a favorite among baking enthusiasts. Furthermore, the oven offers a generous capacity, allowing users to cook large meals or multiple dishes simultaneously, which is perfect for family gatherings or entertaining guests.

Convenience is further enhanced by smart features, including Wi-Fi connectivity. This allows users to control their oven remotely through the GE Appliances app. Users can preheat their oven, monitor cooking progress, and receive notifications directly on their smartphones, making it easier to manage cooking tasks even while multitasking.

The PGS968 also contains a self-cleaning function, utilizing high temperatures to burn away food residue and grease. This feature minimizes manual cleaning efforts and ensures that the oven remains in pristine condition with minimal fuss.

Additionally, the design aspects include a sleek stainless steel finish that fits seamlessly into any modern kitchen decor. The user interface is intuitive, featuring easy-to-read control knobs and touch controls for effortless operation.

Overall, the GE PGS968 combines robust functionality with cutting-edge technology, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to elevate their cooking experience.
