Yes, GE is a good brand of oven and is considered solid mid-tier brand offering good performance, features, and value. GE ovens including electric wall ovens like JTS5000SNSS and JT5000SNSS, gas ranges like JGBS66REKSS, and electric ranges like JB735SPSS are made by GE Appliances, a Haier company, in LaFayette, Georgia for ranges and other US plants. They consistently receive Good to Very Good ratings for baking evenness, temperature accuracy within 25 degrees, and features with first-year service call rates around 8 to 11 percent according to Yale Appliance data, which is near industry average of 10 to 15 percent and similar to Whirlpool at 8 to 11 percent and Frigidaire at 9 to 12 percent, slightly higher than Bosch at 6 to 9 percent but lower than some Samsung models at 12 to 15 percent. Key strengths that make GE a good brand of oven include large capacity at 5.0 to 5.3 cubic feet for ranges, convection fan with third heating element for even baking, self-clean with steam clean option that cleans light spills, SmartHQ app with WiFi in higher models for remote preheat and monitoring, edge-to-edge cooktop for gas ranges, and inexpensive parts like bake element at 30 to 80 dollars, igniter at 40 to 100 dollars, and temperature sensor at 20 to 40 dollars that are widely available with massive US service network. Common complaints include occasional control board failure.
