Rian says "extremly nice unit & easy to install" about Kenmore Elite 27 in. Electric Self-Clean Single Wall Oven

Rian — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 15:33:59 GMT

This is a follow up of my original revew. Only cooked one batch of cookies, and these took 14 min. to cook instead of 12 min. The oven elements did not cycle on as many times as are old oven. This oven must be insulated extremly well. There was a lot less heat being blown out of the upper vent on the front of the unit. I may need to incress the preset temperature, but will wait untill I check the temp. again when cooking the cake. We realy like the large window on this unit. We could easly see both trays of cookies, and the additional light were great. We are going to try a cake next. Rian

cloverbell says "Elite 27" single oven w/convection is good..doesn't clean well" about Kenmore Elite 27 in. Electric Self-Clean Single Wall Oven

cloverbell — Wed, 28 Dec 2011 22:36:14 GMT

This oven takes 10 minutes to heat to desired temp. Oven heats food well. The self-cleaning function is marginal. You have to clean the oven after you clean the oven. The stainless exterior must be cleaned after each oven use. Oven only 6 months old.

kaliwags says "Kenmore Elite Wall Oven Toast after 18 Months" about Kenmore 27 in. Electric Single Wall Oven

kaliwags — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 18:49:14 GMT

Do not buy this oven.

I am not much of a cook so my oven has not been used much. After 18 months of minimal usage I started receiving an F95 error code and the oven would stop working. I am told the repair costs will be approximately $530 for essentially a new oven. Of course I passed on the extended warranty as they are prohibitively expensive. All the reviews from **************** etc rave about this oven so I deemed myself safe (not).

Of course Sears can not/will not do anything for me. In renovating my kitchen I bought the entire Elite line of appliances along with a stand alone freezer. Wouldn't you think Sears would deem me a good customer? I'm done with them forever!

From the start it ran 25 degrees off the desired temperature but that I could deal with.

Owl2 says "Kenmore Elite Oven, do not buy" about Kenmore Elite 30 in. Electric Self-Clean Single Wall Oven

Owl2 — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 23:47:32 GMT

We purchased this oven in May 2010. In 2011 I used the self cleaning for the first time. The oven does not heat up now. I found out through the Internet that this oven is known to break after using the self cleaning. I have made several calls to Sears and have just got the run around. They expect us to pay a min of $130 to fix the oven for a known problem, that should be recalled and fixed for free. I for one will not be buying Kenmore products in the future. Or buying from Sears since their customer support has purposely given us the run around and not telling us the truth on the first telephone call.

mljwolinsky says "Good Oven, looks nice" about Kenmore 27 in. Electric Single Wall Oven

mljwolinsky — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 01:57:40 GMT

When we first got it, the fan was too noisy. It was about as loud as the microwave or exhaust fan above the stove. The installation tech said "that's not right, it's defective, call Sears and get another one". We did what he said and the new one is perfect. There is a bit of fan noise but it's not loud at all. Before I could hear the fan from just about anywhere in the house, now I have to stand right in front of the oven to hear it. The first one smelled bad too. This one has a little brand new smell but it's not bad at all. It works great and it looks nice too. The inside is larger than our previous Kenmore 27". A cookie sheet that I crimped the down the sides to make it fit in the old one slides in fine with about 2" to spare in width. Hopefully this oven will last a long time. My wife does a lot of cooking and baking so it will get a workout.

RickAnacortes says "Jenn-Air 27 - A Real Lemon" about Jenn-Air 27 in. Electric Double Self-Clean Wall Oven w/ Smart Touch Electronic Controls

RickAnacortes — Tue, 04 Oct 2011 18:28:48 GMT

I purchased this oven several years ago. When it works it works well. The problem has been very low reliability. After a few months of use the doors go ajar when the oven started to pre-heat. This caused the oven to stop preheating. I've had to have this repaired multiple times. The next problem was the controls. The oven would show the oven has reached temperature when it was around 100 degrees off (too cold). It then would show a fault after more use. I had this repaired a few weeks ago and it's starting to show the same symptoms again.

Then oven has a lot of bells and whistles, but is useless if it can't do the basics like reach a temperature and actually bake.

Linne says "Highly rated by ****************!" about Kenmore Elite 30 in. Electric Self-Clean Double Wall Oven

Linne — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 19:15:02 GMT

When we began our kitchen remodel, there was no question about the appliances that would be installed. I wanted only restaurant quality, high end appliances, until our *************** magazine came in and stated that what I wanted could be problematic and that Kenmore was rated #1 almost across the board! We saved a bundle, purchased local, upgraded to the best that Sears/Kenmore had to offer and couldn't be happier. I am having a small issue a year later, but Sears has ordered the part, (the element went out on the top oven), and scheduled a service call and was more than accommodating. We couldn't be happier with Kenmore or Sears....

AngelaPierson says "Not pleased that it didn't work." about Kenmore oven - Elite Slide in - 46619

AngelaPierson — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 02:40:51 GMT

Received the Kenmore Elite slide-in range for a Christmas present. Once installed the first thing I see: "F62 ERR" Replace the EOC. Now cannot fix Christmas dinner for my family. Pay this kind of money for a stove, it should work. Thanks Kenmore for making an inferior product and ruining Christmas.

Longspeak says "Oven stops working after self-cleaning" about Kenmore Elite 27 in. Electric Self-Clean Single Wall Oven

Longspeak — Wed, 01 Dec 2010 19:48:50 GMT

We purchased this oven nearly a year ago based upon favorable reviews in consumer magazines. When we ran the self-clean cycle for the first time a week before Thanksgiving, the thermostat was tripped to shut the oven off because of the high heat and the oven wouldn't come back on.

After waiting a week to get a service person to repair the oven (we had to use a neighbor's oven to cook our turkey), a service person came to our home and said this was a common problem for these ovens which are actually manufactured by Electrolux. He had to remove the built-in oven, unscrew the back and replace/reset the thermostat switch. He said there isn't a higher-rated thermostat replacement available so this same problem would most likely occur the next time we ran the self-clean cycle.

Luckily, the oven still had two weeks remaining on the warranty so the repair didn't cost anything except the aggravation of not having a workable oven over Thanksgiving. Otherwise, it would have been a $180...

ChefAng says "Don't purchase this product-$400. repair for manufacturer defect" about Whirlpool 30 in. Electric Double Wall Oven w/Self-Clean Upper Oven

ChefAng — Thu, 04 Nov 2010 20:32:13 GMT

I purchased this oven about 5 years ago- top of the line Whirlpool. After the first time I used the self- cleaning feature the display pad kept showing an error code. I can use the oven still, but at times it will go black and not work at all. I found out that the keypad needs replaced to the tune of $400! This may not even fix the problem and it will be more money to replace the control pad. I also read other reviews about it failing again after the costly repairs. I called Whirlpool and basically was told- "too bad."
