#Frigidaire Range & Microwave Test Drive: Week 7

So I’ve owned my Frigidaire stainless steel range (Model: FPEF3081KF) and over-the-range microwave (Model: FPBM189KF) for about 7 weeks now. There are a lot of features that I’ve buzzed about that have just completely sold me on the units, such as:

• Easy to Clean
• Lots of Room
• More Counter Space

But a huge pro about this specific range is the Power Plus Feature. Power Plus helps you get out of the kitchen faster, since it has a radiant element with a higher power level capability. That means it can bring the items you are cooking or boiling to the right cooking temperature faster. This is GREAT when you need to prepare a bigger meal. In other words, waiting for water to boil takes on a whole new meaning to Frigidaire Range owners! There are three settings that help you get your meals done in a jiffy!

PowerPlus™ Preheat: Pre-heat your oven in less than 6 minutes. Perfect when you are busy baking!

PowerPlus™ Boil: Boil water fast with a 3,100 Watt Cooking Element. A must-have for impatient, hungry kids.

PowerPlus™ Convection: Roast meat to tender, juicy perfection in less time.

I really love the PowerPlus Pre-heat, because it is so darn useful when baking brownies and cupcakes! It takes a serious amount of cooking time off, letting us all munch on ooey, gooey sweets that  much quicker. I also love the PowerPlus Boil, because it helps me get the rice and pasta cooking quicker. Plus, my kids love soup and you know how patient kids are when they want something. Ha!

The only thing you need to remember is to activate the PowerPlus Preheat from the oven control function panel. It’s located below the clock, under the bake option.  When you want to activate it for baking you just push Powerplus Preheat, press Start, press Bake, enter the desired temperature and press Start one final time.

I think it’s such a neat feature that really lets you spend more quality time with your family Just imagine if all of your appliances were time-saving Frigidaire ones! As you know, a busy mom’s time is super valuable, especially when you just want to play with your kids, not sit in the kitchen and wait for something to boil or preheat!

I wrote this review while participating in a Test Drive Campaign by Mom Central on behalf of Frigidaire and received a Frigidaire Range/Microwave to facilitate my review.
