“Excellent Wall Oven”

Whirlpool 24" Electric Self-Clean Wall Oven RBS245PR — 

After my home's original wall oven went kaput (installed in 1970!) I wanted this wall oven in my kitchen. Whirlpool makes very good appliances, and I didn't hesitate to purchase this one. Installation went very smoothly -- the installation manual was clear and easy to follow. Some adjustments had to be made to the wall cabinet opening, but nothing major. Wiring it in was simple. The preheat countdown is very handy. With no more guessing when the oven will be preheated, getting the food prepped and ready is simpler. The clock display is large and clear, making it easy to read from anywhere in my kitchen (12'x18'). Setting the cook timer for specific start/stop times is a snap. There's even a separate timer to use if I don't want the oven to auto shut off. With AccuBake, everything I've baked so far has cooked evenly and turned out just right. My old oven had just one light bulb -- this one has two, one in each back corner, making it even easier to see when something is close to being done. I also like the large window in the oven door, making it easy to see inside. The stainless steel exterior finish is easy to keep clean. I would recommend this wall oven to anyone. When my husband and I build our vacation home in a few years, we'll build a wall oven cabinet to hold the 27" model.

No. The do not make very good appliances according to all consumers who have purchased them.

I am very leary of purchasing Whirlpool products after a very defective stovetop purchase. Luckily, I paid for a 3-year extended warranty for 120 dollars. I had the repair people out here on numerous occasions for a failed ignition switch, and for replacement beauty rings, grids and flame covers due to the constant porcelain literally poping off these items in slivers. I was told by more than one repairmen that Whirlpool should just replace this stovetop, because it was an obvious defect, but to no avail on Whirpool's end. I then realized that Whirlpool does not stand behind their products, nor support the inconvenienced consumer.
I went on Planet Feedback's site to read the many complaints with this company, and can say I was not surprised that I was not the only one to have these problems with Whirlpool.
They have taken over Maytag, Jenn-aire and numerous other brands, so it may become difficult to buy any decent appliances.
I will make it a point to do a lot of research to find a company that stands behind their products. We consumers should not have to buy warranties for products. These products should be made well enough to stand the test of time like our parents had. Some of those appliances are still in good working condition as of today. I am sure they were manufactured in the United States and not Mexico or some other foreign country.
