The product, in the report: White magic chef electric slide in range. It is white. There is no drawer underneath. It is mounted on a cabinet. Stove and oven in one.
The magic chef electric slide in range has knobs on the stove that turn on too easily. If you brush them when walking by, they can turn on without being noticed. On multiple occasions, we have burnt various items. Luckily, no one has been hurt yet.
