                                Ranges test program at
                                Consumer Reports.  In our lab tests, Gas Ranges
                                models like the GGF600AVSS are rated on multiple criteria, such as those
                                listed below.
                            
                                                        
                                Cooktop high:
                                This reflects how quickly the most powerful burner could raise a large pot of water from room temperature to a near boil.
                            
                                                        
                                Cooktop low:
                                This how well the lowest-powered element or burner kept a low temperature as for melting chocolate. We also set the most powerful burner to its lowest flame to test its ability to hold a large pot of tomato sauce below a boil.
                            
                                                        
                                Baking:
                                This reflects the evenness of cookies and cakes in multi-rack baking tests.
