Maytag CWG3100AAB 24" Gas Single Built-In Oven Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the worst oven I have ever seen, I do not know what the engineers where thinking when they built this unit. There is a small metal deflector that runs along the top of the vents above the top door and after 10-12 minutes of the oven coming to temp, the whole area above the door gets so hot, you can burn yourself. Funny thing is, the engineers obviously knew this, because after I got a blister on my finger from touching this metal band, I looked at the manual and under the section "Vents" it actually says that it could burn you!! Worst of all, Maytag was very uncooperative about exchanging the unit. I had always thought Maytag was a good company but I will never purchase another thing from them. They acted as if there was nothing wrong. A service person came to my home from PC Richards where I purchased the oven and he measured the temperature of this metal deflector once the oven reached 360 degrees on the inside. The metal strip on the outside had already reached a temperature of 220 degrees after only 12 minutes. PC Richards was great. They gladly offered an exchange and I purchased a GE instead.
My recommendation is to stay away, far away, it will burn you and then Maytag will add insult to injury and burn you again.

PB975SPSS GE Profile 30" Free-Standing Double Oven Electric Range - Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What a great looking unit -- too bad the sleek stainless steel outside hides a lousy inside!
My wife and I have been looking a more updated unit to replace our 15 year old electric range oven. We thought we found a unit that was both functional, sleek and useful. For the two months that the unit worked, it was actually a great range oven. We found ourselves using the upper oven (although smaller of the two) more than 95% of the time. It heated up quickly and baked evenly. The stove top is also designed thoughtfully and the control unit, while not as advanced as some other units, was very functional and surprisingly intuitive to use.
The unit broke down after just two months of use (bought on Sep 10, 2010 and broke on Nov 4, 2010). The unit shut down completely and when it re-powered, the "door locked" indicator was on. While the stove top was still functional, neither of the ovens were. The GE technician looked at the unit for about three minutes, ordered a bunch of parts and left. The follow up appointment was rescheduled by dispatch, without notification. GE Customer Service was useless (but at least they all spoke English). Now we're stuck without an oven for Thanksgiving holidays with family coming to town. Will call the store we bought the unit from and see if we can return it. Searching around there are more reports of control board circuit boards being "fried" by the oven, so this is not an isolated incident. Do not buy this unit until the problem is resolved.

DeLonghi EO420 4-Slice Toaster Oven, Brushed Stainless Steel Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I returned 2 of them due to defective design. The first one that arrived had a defective knob which I would have had Delonghi replace but following the enclosed instructions for making toast, the lower element did not come on until well into the cycle so the top burned while the bottom was not toasted at all. I tried wheat bread, raisin bread and frozen waffles on several darkness settings and both rack positions. Although the unit seemed flimsy for $75 for a basic toaster oven, it was one of the few 4 slice (smaller) units and it looked OK on the counter so I had Amazon replace it. The toast function on second one was identical to the first so I returned it too. Delonghi is not a cheap brand; it should do better. Amazon should not carry this model.

Alessi SG302 Mami Milk Broiler Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife has a cute habit: she likes to prepare a cup of warm milk and a cookie just before bedtime. This Milk boiler has been her favorite for years.
It has a wider base that distributes the heat widely whereas the narrower top gives you time to pull from the heat element once the boiling begins. It also makes great herbal tea!
My wife loves it.
