Had a new Jenn-Aire and hated it. The lighting behind the push buttons went haywire, black, and it wouldn't get hot enough for stir fry.
Make sure one of the burners is a power burner so this doesn’t happen.👍

When swapping from nat gas to LP the burners aren't as hot, so I can't get the big griddle in the middle to get hot enough. The rest of the burners are great though, plenty hot and that left front is almost too hot. I would get the turbo burner option for sure (two rings of flame on same burner) I cook with a 14inch lodge cast iron on that right front burner and it's great I love it. The oven is awesome too, love the probe options :tup:
This is the one I got, the griddle never gets used because L.P isn't hot enough.

Their dishwashers are the best over just about every other company (Consumer Reports also backs this up). Their hoods are amazing. Build in microwaves also great, warmers, fridge. so on and so forth. My entire kitchen is Bosch and I cook constantly, literally everyday. And I'm not gentle on anything. Never an issue.
Their ranges/ovens are great too. Yes, fine you might hear rumblings that they have an issue here and there. But totally worth it for its performance.
It's like comparing a Ford Focus to a Ferrari.
The Ferrari might have issues at times, but it's amazing and looks great.
Yes the Ford Focus lasts forever, but in the end, you're still driving a Ford Focus.
I could make the same argument for stainless steel chefs knives vs carbon steel chefs knives.
But i'll stop before I get all sorts of irritated. Ha.

Off grid decided to go with the least amount of electricity. 90 % of the ranges have to have 120 volts and a circuit board. I repair machines for a living so when I retire I want it no frills. Looked at reviews and talked to a dealer that said he has not has any repairs returns on this product where he has on other brands. He said this us the route to go.even has battery operated igniters. After 4 hrs of reviews and searching I'm getting BURNED out LOL. $1200 or the range and itsmade in USA thanks for all the replies so far

got one myself (Samsung) year or so ago, easy to convert.

You should check the incoming pressure to the appliance. LP's btu content isn't much lower than NG, negligible in almost all instances, but the pressure is 2-3 times higher. Too low of pressure will cause a cold flame. Is the flame yellow, or yellow tipped? It should be around 10" of water, minimum. Your LP supplier can will check it for you for free, or they should.
Also make sure that the regulator on the appliance (some have them some don't) was converted or replaced with an LP, Blue=Lp Red=NG. This is a common mistake made by delivery guys, they don't even know they are there.
If all that checks out, you can swap out the orifice and get better performance as well. The factory will have some insight into this.
