The gas ranges were sold in stores and online from November 2020 through March 2026 for between $280 and $1,470. They have model numbers NS-RGFGSS1 and NS-RGFCGS2 and are stainless steel with five front-knobs on the oven with the “Insignia” label on the bottom of the oven door. A label with the model number can be found on the inside of the range’s bottom drawer.

At this time, there has been one report of the knobs being activated by accidental contact, but there have been no confirmed injuries.
