5.0 (1) Amazon rating$1078.15

Our verdict

The COSMO COS-ERC304KBD is a 30-inch freestanding electric range with a 4.8 cu ft oven and radiant cooktop that covers the basics at a mid-range price of around $1,078. Review volume is too thin to draw strong reliability conclusions, but the spec set is competitive for the price.

Best for

Buyers replacing a standard 30-inch electric range who want a roomy 4.8 cu ft oven and don't need smart features or a convection fan. Works well in kitchens already wired for 240V.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other kitchen ranges, cooktops, wall ovens, range hoods and microwaves we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.

Overview

The COSMO COS-ERC304KBD slots into the standard 30-inch opening and runs on 240V, making it a direct swap for most existing electric ranges. The radiant cooktop uses four burner elements beneath a smooth glass surface, which is easy to wipe down but slower to respond than gas or induction. At 4.8 cu ft, the oven cavity is on the larger end for a 30-inch class range, giving you room for full sheet pans or a large roasting bird.

Knob controls keep the interface simple and mechanical, no touchscreen to worry about or firmware to update. The polished finish adds a cleaner look than painted alternatives, though polished surfaces do show fingerprints more readily. At 190 lb the unit is solidly built for its class.

With only a single customer rating on record, there's no meaningful buyer consensus on real-world durability or cooking performance. The specs are solid on paper, but shoppers who value a track record before committing to a $1,000+ appliance may want to wait for more reviews to accumulate.

Pros

  • Generous 4.8 cu ft oven for a 30-inch range
  • Radiant smooth-top cooktop is easy to clean
  • Simple knob controls with no software dependencies
  • Polished finish looks sharp in modern kitchens
  • Standard 30-inch freestanding fit for easy replacement

Cons

  • Only one review, reliability track record is unknown
  • Radiant heating is slower to respond than gas or induction
  • No convection or smart home features at this price
  • Polished finish shows fingerprints easily

Performance notes

Radiant cooktop with 4 elements; 4.8 cu ft oven cavity; 240V / 30-inch / 190 lb; dimensions 27 x 29.9 x 36.1 in; knob controls; polished finish; not smart home compatible.

What buyers say

With just one rating on record, there's no reliable buyer consensus. The single reviewer gave it top marks, but one data point isn't enough to read into. Buyers should approach this as a relatively unproven model and weigh that against the competitive spec sheet.

Frequently asked questions

Does the COSMO COS-ERC304KBD require a special outlet?

Yes, it runs on 240 volts, so you'll need a standard 240V/4-prong range outlet, the same type most North American kitchens already have wired for an electric range.

Does this range include a convection oven?

The listed specs do not indicate a convection fan. It's a standard bake/broil electric oven.

How wide is the COSMO COS-ERC304KBD?

It is 29.9 inches wide and designed to fit a standard 30-inch range cutout in a freestanding installation.
