Let's be honest, of all the appliances in your home, your oven is the last one you want malfunctioning, especially if you are an avid baker or enjoy a good roast. Of course, there are other appliances that you want to make sure are reliable. For example, you wouldn't want a washing machine brand that experts say to skip, and a faulty water heater could cause significant water damage to your home, but the potential for fire damage from an unreliable oven is a bit more concerning on most homeowners' lists. Not to mention, high-tech ovens are likely to be a trendy kitchen appliance that we'll be seeing more of in homes, but the reliability of those features is key. Over the years, Samsung has become a household name for both electronics and home appliances, but it may not be the best choice for your oven if you are looking for reliability. According to customer reviews and product testing results, GE is actually the most reliable oven brand on the market.

Not only is GE recognized as a top trusted brand by industry experts and product review reports, but it is also consistently ranked as one of the best brands by both review companies and customers. Customers seem to like GE of range ovens and cooktops because of the features, ease of use, and cooking quality. In addition, there are very few complaints in customer reviews regarding service needs or repairs, and most customers appreciate the quality and speed of the delivery and installation process.

So, what is it about GE that is making experts and customers rave about its reliability? Ultimately, it comes down to quality, ease of use, and service. When choosing the perfect range for your kitchen, you probably spend a lot of time looking at aspects like the fuel source, size, and functionality. These are all factors that contribute to whether or not an oven is compatible with your kitchen and your cooking style. But compatibility is not the only thing that is important when selecting an oven. You also want to make sure that whichever oven you choose is reliable in terms of consistent heating, easy-to-use features, durability, and customer support (in case anything does go wrong). According to customers, that is precisely what GE ovens offer.

Best Buy and Lowe's customers consistently praised GE products for their quality features, like the no-preheat air fryer and Wi-Fi connectivity, quick and consistent heating from the convection oven, quick delivery time, and quality installation. No customer reviews complain about GE ovens not lasting, and according to experts, they are designed to last 12 years or more, depending on the frequency of use. In addition, customers on forums support GE because, if you ever were to experience issues, they have quality customer care with an online service and repair tool that makes it easy to quickly find and schedule local service calls.

In order to determine the best, most reliable oven brand as of 2025, we started by identifying the best-rated brands according to industry research and product testing companies. We found that according to Lifestory Research's America's Most Trusted Kitchen Appliance Brands report for 2025, GE ranks among the top six brands. The report analyzed reviews from 24,355 surveys over a 12-month period, but it did not distinguish specific products. It did, however, mention that GE was ranked in the top brands for products, including refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves, and cooktops. Consumer Reports also ranked GE products in the top four highest-ranked ranges, with two GE models in the top four electric smooth top ranges, three GE models in the top four coil electric ranges, and two GE models in the top four gas ranges. Finally, GE was ranked as the best oven by experts like Sharon Franke, a Food Network shopping expert, the ranking team at East Coast Appliance, The New York Times, and Reviewed.com.

From there, we reviewed actual customer ratings from online retailers like Best Buy and Lowe's, and online forums like Reddit. At Best Buy, GE ovens ranked both one and two in the top-rated ovens based on customer reviews. At Lowe's, all 125 GE oven models are ranked 4 stars or higher. Reddit users consistently recommended avoiding Samsung because they do not have local service providers, whereas GE does. Meaning if something does go wrong, GE has the ability to get it fixed efficiently.
