hey there folks i'm megan fullerton here with the samsung gas range with true convection that's model number nx5 8f 5700 so this gas range costs one thousand six hundred and ninety nine dollars that fits squarely in the mid price range you can definitely find gas ranges for under six hundred bucks and you can find others that are over three thousand and what i've found in this price range so far is somewhat disappointing design but when you take a look at this one it actually looks like a much more premium model take the display panel here a lot of them have sort of a plastic sort of cheap looking touchpad but this one actually has a nice sort of silvery panel that kind of blends in with the stainless steel finish around it I really like that I also think these larger burner controls are a nice touch they have a sort of professional industrial almost chef quality to them moving past design I also really liked some of the additional features that this range offers for instance it has a bread proof dehydrate and defrost mode it comes with a wok insert that you can stick on the cooktop and also a griddle for frying up your favorite breakfast treats and it has a 5.8 cubic foot oven capacity which is way bigger than the Electrolux e30 gf3 5j s that I reviewed recently this range also performed quite well I roasted a whole chicken I made hamburgers and I baked a ton of biscuits and everything came out pretty well the only real issue with it was its speed it wasn't the fastest performer out of some of the other models specifically it ranked in the middle in terms of boiling water and broiling hamburgers so it wasn't exactly a disappointment but it didn't exceed expectations either it performed well it looks more expensive than it is and it has the features match thanks for watching this review of the Samsung gas range with true convection model number nx5 8f 5700 be sure to check out the rest of our large appliance coverage on CNN com I'm Megan Willerton for seenot appliances
