« Last post by K Frame on Today at 08:11:18 AM »You want a NEW gas stove?
EARTH RAPIST!
Self-cleaning ovens get a lot hotter than 600 deg. Normally they run upwards 800 to 900 degrees.
And yeah, the insulation tends to be a lot better on self-cleaning stoves.
I have an earlier electric GE (2016 model) that is comparable to the one you're looking at. Mine is solid surface (glass top).
I like it quite a bit.
It also has the steam clean (for light duty cleaning in between full cleaning cycles) but I've never used that, and I think I've only used the regular cleaning cycle once, as I really don't use my oven all that often.
Hint... Don't leave your oven racks in the oven when you do the cleaning cycle. It won't harm them, but it does something to the chrome finish and makes them... coarse. They're no longer slick.

IIRC he was pretty badly injured and died in hospital.
Coroner (I knew, and was friendly with him) said it was a simple case of the farmer getting careless around what can be a VERY dangerous animal.

Did the DA cherry pick the jury to try to get the political result he wanted?

One twitter user said instead of trying, and failing, to buy a Senate seat he could have bought nearly 6 million bottles of one of the wines that he sells in his stores.
Another said that had he divided the amount he spent on his campaign he could have instead given every citizen in Maryland (nearly 6.2 million) $9 and change.

Farmer asks if he has a warrant, so the Ag Department inspector pulls out a badge and says "You're producing FOODSTUFFS, so this BADGE is all the authorization I need!"
Farmer says "OK, just stay away from the cattle in the back 40 and their bull."
Ag inspector's eyes light up. "Why that's EXACTLY where I'm doing my inspection!"
Couple of minutes later the farmer hears screams coming from the back 40, where the Ag inspector is being chased by the bull - who's obviously going to catch the Ag inspector before he can reach & hop over the fence. "HELP! HELP!" screams the Ag inspector. "THAT BULL IS GOING TO KILL ME!"
Farmer yells "YOUR BADGE! SHOW HIM YOUR BADGE!"

On the hoses: They are hard to get for indoor appliances in the big box (idoit frequented) stores because of liability. If Cletus blows up his trailer, cousin Darla is going to sue Home Depot that sold him the gas l8ne. I've had issues finding lines like that for Army equipment because Noone wants to risk it. If you have a commercial restaurant supply house, or a business that makes (like still cuts hoses and crimps fittings on site) in your town, they can get you what you need without needing extra fittings and connections.
