Sounds great and what a buy! Wish I had room for one like yours.

I got a deal similar to yours with my very first washer/dryer. Sears
gave me a huge discount because the washer had a ding on one side.
They were going to be installed right next to each other and I'd never
see that side anyway, so my attitude was YEAH I'll take it.

I have a feeling I'll be looking for new ovens sooner than later. A
popcorn popping sound was coming from the panel that houses the dials
and clock last night when I had both ovens going. Not sure what that
was all about. It almost sounded like the fan was acting up, but I
opened the door to the oven with the convection fan and the noise
wasn't coming from there (it wasn't on convect anyway). It eventually
subsided and that's when hubby finally decided to come in to listen.
It was still making noise, but it wasn't as loud and of course he
couldn't hear it - so if he can't hear it, there's no a problem
(according to him).
