The Frigidaire FCFE242CAS electric range is a smart choice for compact kitchens that don’t want to compromise on performance or style. Designed at a sleek 24" width, it slides easily into smaller spaces such as condos, apartments, or secondary suites, while still offering a generous 1.9 cu. ft. oven capacity that can handle everything from weeknight dinners to weekend baking projects. A standout feature of this model is its true convection cooking system, which uses a dedicated fan to circulate hot air evenly throughout the oven, helping you achieve more consistent browning, faster roasting, and multi-rack baking that many standard 24" ranges simply can’t match. The smooth glass cooktop adds to the premium feel, providing four radiant elements with flexible power options so you can gently simmer sauces or quickly bring water to a boil, all on a surface that wipes clean with minimal effort. Another advantage of the FCFE242CAS is its hidden bake element, which tucks the lower heating element beneath the oven floor; this not only creates a flatter, more usable interior but also makes cleaning spills and splatters significantly easier than in exposed-element ovens. Thoughtful details like front-mounted control knobs, an easy-to-read digital clock and timer, and indicator lights that let you know when a burner is on or the surface is still hot add everyday safety and convenience. Below the oven, a full-width storage drawer provides a practical place to keep baking sheets, pans, or extra cookware close at hand, helping you maximize every inch of kitchen space. Finished in modern stainless steel with coordinated knobs, this range is designed to blend seamlessly with a variety of décor styles, from contemporary to transitional. Whether you’re outfitting a new small-space kitchen or upgrading an older 24" stove, the Frigidaire FCFE242CAS delivers an appealing combination of compact footprint, convection performance, easy-clean features, and polished design that sets it apart from many other ranges in its class.
