David W San Ramon , CA April 02, 2015 The knobs that came with my ge cafe series stove were plastic and were complete crap! 5 out of 6 of them had split and were not turning the metal pegs inside properly I bought the replacement knobs from Appliance Parts Pros.com and they were much better knobs that what originally came with the unit. They are actually metal and the plastic posts that connect with the range are a much higher grade plastic. To be honest I think the stove works better than it did when it was new. Some of the original knobs may have been broken when we purchased the unit. Replacement took under 5 minutes for all of the knob. Oh....and by the way....they appear to be the same knobs you can purchase elsewhere but these guys sell them for about half the price!! The parts arrived in 2 days. I can't tell you how happy I am with this purchase! 53 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
