Westinghouse

So picked this machine, to replace our previous Westinghouse dishwasher. Controls are very touchy, funny enough our front panel has started to peel… Read more

the grey off the plastic in multiple places for some reason. Not sure why. Apparently it’s suppose to Buzz when finished the wash cycle but doesn’t.

Front vs Top loader. My old top loader Hoover finally died after 36 years.. no long under warranty :). Thought I would try a front loader and am… Read more

pleasantly surprised. It does the job well, my only complaint is that 8kg front loader does not equate to my 7kg Top loader. I think I should have bought the 10kg version front loader to get near the same capacity as a 7kg top loader. Only had this thing for a couple of days, but happy with the purchase so far. Easy menu to navigate, machine is fairly quiet. Standard wash cycles are a little longer, but short ones are available. I would recommend

valve and a noise coming from this unit that'll wake the dead. When the tech arrived error messages were showing up left, right and centre. On the first time it came back from warranty and I still haven't received a responce on what was wrong with it. Good one Electrolux, way to go guys. Two months later, the same problem. Electrolux who handle Westinghouse are as useless as and Westinghouse should reveiw thier service contract with Electrolux. A company that cannot even tell you when to expect the technician or when pick up will be. anytime within 8 hours is a poor excuse. They'll keep you waiting all day. I asked them to call an hour before pick up or before the tech arrives twice and twice, completley ignored my instructions. Going by these reveiws, I would not waste my time with Westinghouse ever again which once was a great brand / product. Electrolux, pull your heads in.

The only issues I have is not having an extra rinse cycle on the mixed load and other short cycles. Im only using about 1/3 of the recommended… Read more

washing liquid and the clothes come out with residue on them. And also for towels if you do a very small amount of washing liquid and you air dry the towels they come out hard and stiff. I believe this is because I'm either using the wrong cycle or the lack of extra rinse cycle . I would love some advice on how to rectify this . And another thing if you wash 1 or 2 bath mats they don't spin out properly and come out with alot of water still in them.

Great budget dryer I recommend doing full sun for 30-50min otherwise it could be too hot but it's a great cheap reliable piece of budget dryers ❤️

Terrible only works on Intensive any other program just throws the crumbs around and they land and dry on the dishes.

Very disappointed that Westinghouse does not have a slidout rangehood that can be rear ducted from the rangehood. Our last one which is 31 years old… Read more

and still works but dated was ducted from the rear through the wall. We wanted to replace it with a new rangehood but not one of your products has rear ducting so we went elsewhere. I think it is a missed opportunity by Westinghouse not to have tear ducted products.

My First and Last Westinghouse. I have used front loading washing machines since 1973 (obviously, I must have bought better brands these last 52… Read more

years) but have never had one as infuriating as The Westinghouse Easy Care 300. I never thought to look to see that it only takes in cold water. Who would have even thought of that? We have solar hot water but now have to pay to heat water if desired. The length of times of some of the cycles are st>pid long including rinsing with a spin dry. The only redeeming feature is the 15 minute wash that I put my bath mats in as our little dog pees on them. However the worst feature is the unpredictable, temperamental on off place. Sorry, I wrote button but it is just a marking on the front. Nothing, but nothing helps to start this useless machine. I cannot wait for the day I get rid of it but rest assured Westinghouse will not be on my shopping list. Half a star and that is for the 15 min wash.

Unprogramable and a waste of time – It looked really good in the box, I was interested because a friend had a Breville one. Unfortunately this does not live up to the quality and you… Read more

can’t program the water it Dispensers. Someone at Westinghouse has decided that all the cup or mugs Are a set size. Which means you can use the infinite dispense, but you have to stand by the machine so waste time.

*Great Quality product *Great Dark Charcoal finish *Super Quiet *Good design pull out drawer for laundry liquid dispense *Separate Power on/off Switch *Great choice of cycles *Easy to empty the water drainage below compared to other machines

We have the WWT1084C7WA, costs us $1077 and it was an absolute waste of money and we regret the purchase. The normal actual wash cycle is only 8… Read more

minutes out of its 60 minutes. It spends more time spinning and even it's wash rinse it's only 1 minute after it has fully filled up the tub with water. Such a waste. If you change the wash programs it will empty out all the water and start again, such a waste of water. I have no idea why anyone would give this washing machine over a 1 star, it's terrible, especially paying over $1k for it.

Summary Normal Wash

10mins - Filling up tub with water

8mins - Washing

14mins - Drain and Spin

8mins - Filling rinse water to top of tub

1min - Rinse washing agitation with full water in tub (yes one minute of rinse water agitation before it just drains the water, absolute waste)

19mins Drain and Spin Dry

Its an OK dishwasher. Lots of settings, but its not the largest and made especially useless with the middle shelf height adjustments being too high… Read more

or too low to be useful. On the low setting, we cannot fit standard plates. On the height setting we cannot fit our cheap wine glasses or many other things we would want to put on that shelf. The level of tetris requited on this DW is much heigher than any we have ever owned.

I have read of others removing the cutlery draw to get more height.

Come sun used condition with dings, dents and scratches and breaks down straight away. This is my third replacement in a few months. Don’t waste your time

Purchased a month ago. This fridge makes a low hum constantly, but it is not annoying unless you are easily agitated. Seems to work well otherwise… Read more

with regards to interior lighting and temperature consistency. An issue is that the top mount door needs to be manually closed on occassion because it doesn't like to self close unless from a fully open postion (we don't like it slamming shut all the time as it is heavy enough that it tends to pop open the freezer door momentarliy (which is stated as normal in the intruction manual)). Freezer compartment is well designed. Controls are straightfoward and you don't need any online or AI gimmicks to get it working as per your own preferences (which are basic). Is OK on power as we have not seen any power spikes after changeover from previous fridge.

Affordable induction cooktop I've been quite happy with this portable induction cooktop. As someone who has cooked on gas for many years, I found… Read more

this a great introduction to induction cooking and a bit of an eye-opener. It excels at dishes that require a long, slow, even simmer, such as jams, stewed fruit, and meat stews. The heat control is responsive and it holds a gentle simmer very well. The unit is also compact, lightweight, and easy to store when not in use. The smooth glass surface makes cleaning quick and simple, which is a definite advantage over a traditional gas cooktop. The only downside I've noticed is that it cycles on and off at some power settings. While this appears to be normal for this type of appliance, it can take a little getting used to if you're accustomed to cooking on gas. Overall, it's a practical, easy-to-use cooktop that offers many of the benefits of induction cooking at an affordable price.

condenser causing the thermostat and circulation fan to sieze up. It is a common fault well known by repair technicians .Food in the freezer and fridge was ruined.Repair took 30 days to get done with 2 visists and then it failed again 2 weeks later with same problem. Local repair agent and customer support in Perth WA is terrible. Westinghouse uses only one single repairer for all warranty jobs in Perth WA. The replacement policy is it has to fail a THIRD time before westinghouse will consider a new fridge. I didn't wait for that and simply purchased another brand (a reliable brand)

It dries quickly but the cycles don’t make sense though so a bit disappointing

Poor quality of product. ‘Overheats’ with error E5 on left hob constantly at even 800w and the ceramic plate itself is nowhere near hot. Using all… Read more

good quality induction cookware. Must be an overly sensitive safety cutoff. Contacted Westinghouse who seemed disinterested. Returned to store for a refund.

Purchased an ikea portable hob and have had no issues which confirmed for me that it wasn’t anything I was doing wrong.

Also, despite the brand name being Westinghouse, this is imported by a distribution company and is not all that closely related to Australian made Westinghouse products. It’s basically a rebranded generic product which is reflected in its poor quality and performance.

We decided to change our old Ariston gas/electric stove for the Westinghouse. Firstly we had to have a gas fitter/plumber come to seal off the gas… Read more

supply; then our electrician had to put in a new more powerful fuse box (for the induction hob). The cooker was delivered exactly when Harvey Norman told us it would, and our electrician set it up. I have to say it looks very nice, and the induction hob just has a flat glass surface to clean - not as easy as I thought, because a wipe-over just smears it. I had to use white vinegar to get rid of grease. However, it’s very easy to use and overall, I’m pleased with it - so far!

We’ve had our Westinghouse refrigerator for perhaps 10 years now and granted it still goes but I can’t wait for it to finally stop working so I can… Read more

get rid of it. The freezer draws have completely disintegrated and constantly drop everything on the floor every time It’s opened. Perhaps an example of the lowest cost cheap plastic materials and fittings that seem to be used throughout. I’m really not the type of person to make a report like this on anything but given a fridge is meant to be long lasting, reliable and durable given its use profile and given this one has really annoyed me from so early on I feel it’s worth letting people know my experience so they don’t make the same mistake

I bought this fridge a couple of months ago. We chose this one as it included a filtered water and ice dispenser, and we had a Westinghouse fridge… Read more

before that we were happy with that was also a French Door design. I really like the middle draw, which can be used as a fridge or freezer. I've use it once to change from fridge temp to a freezer temp when entertaining, was easy to do and worked really well. Love there are no door handles that stick out in this model, the doors are handleless and instead built in to the door. This gives the fridge a modern minimalistic appearance. Very happy with it so far.

After a lot of investigating we purchased the Westinghouse model WVE6516SD. I did the installation, my electrician connected and issued a compliance… Read more

certificate for warranty requirements. Albeit the height and level adjustments were a bit finicky I achieved a perfect fit into the cabinet using spacers from Bunnings. The Westinghouse instructions were exceptionally good and overall, installation was easy. The two Westinghouse mounting screws are 20mm long and way too short for chipboard cabinets, with added stress due opening and closing the oven door. Westinghouse, this is penny pinching - the length of these screws should be 30mm.

The oven is exceptionally well insulated and there is no notable rise in room temperature with the oven on. No odd odours or any issues. Build quality is also good - in fact, better than many premium opposition brands.

Unfortunately, there is one huge downside. This oven does not display the current temperature at all. It operates totally blind. Unlike many ovens, this one is all about trust, and little else. We made the fatal mistake by assuming that this basic feature would be standard. We now have to rely on the accuracy of the oven thermostat, and an almost unnoticeable tiny green light that goes off when the set temperature is reached. Sometimes, after baking one may want to put the food back into the oven either to cook more or to reheat. Not knowing what the temperature is, the oven may either be too hot or too cold. So one would have to start all over by resetting the required temperature and wait for the green light to go out. It's the most ridiculous and stupid scenario. Also, one has to stand far back to see the green indicator light. Our perception went from disappointed, to flabbergasted and then disgusted.

Called Westinghouse customer care. Their response was that the "missing" feature was only on their premium models with all the bells and whistles. Well we looked at those and were put off as most of these added "premium " options were nothing but slick marketing. Gimmicky features like a self-cleaning ovens and more. And no difference as far as build quality goes. We have learnt from experience that more often than not, more means less and more for maintenance and replacement costs.

Westinghouse service was really good. Initially, the assistant listened intently and was thorough throughout the conversation, taking notes and a promise of a callback. They did call back and again, the assistant was exceptionally pleasant to deal with. She concurred with my sentiments but couldn't offer any recourse but an apology. Even after I had pointed out that had we known, we would never have purchased this oven. In my opinion, a temperature indicator gauge should be a standard feature, on all ovens - full stop.

Ratings. For customer service: 5 Star. For build quality, reliability and installation instructions: 5 Stars minus 3 Stars for the inadequate fixing screws and the missing temperature indicator gauge.

The cooking is great. The hob2hood function is the dumbest idea ever. This turns on/off and adjusts speed of the matching rangehood exhaust fan based… Read more

on the temp of the cooktop. According to the manual:

"compatible rangehoods work seamlessly with your induction or ceramic cooktop to clear your kitchen of cooking smells and steam. As you start cooking, the rangehood will automatically turn on then intuitively adjust the fan speed and airflow to match your cooking. How's that for hands-free convenience?"

How is it? Horrible. Constantly changing fan speed when not required. You can empty your pots after finishing cooking, turn rangehood off, put pots back, and it turns fan on again because it's still hot on the cooktop. No steam or fumes anymore, but Westinghouse knows best.

Recommend not getting a matching rangehood.

Very impressed with these ovens. Controls clear, nice feature is the temperature graph showing progress of heat up and cool down, and dual displays… Read more

of either time and temperature or target and actual temperature. Air frier works brilliantly at first attempt with zero learning curve.

To respond to the comments in a negative review below...

1) yes you grill with the door closed... just like every oven i have used for the last 25 years. And??? So you can't use a non oven safe frypan in the oven... this seems like common sense, and if anything a negative comment to make about one's choice of frypan... it is hardly the oven's fault that it gets hot; that's what ovens are supposed to do. If you want a frypan that works in an oven, buy one.

2) it is completely false to say nothing browns in this oven... it's an oven. Food browns if you set it correctly. And there's zero evidence of it being inaccurate in its temperature settings. It works as i expect at temperatures that i have previously used in other ovens. Based on the criticism below, i got out my calibrated thermocouple and checked it... as per the photo below, it is within 3 degrees C of set- point, in less time than the instructions say should be allowed for preheating. This is within 1.5%, which is very, VERY good for a commercial, non-scientific product. In my experience as an engineer buying accurate equipment, things start getting extremely expensive if you want better than the normal commercial level of 2% accuracy. And this is a modestly priced consumer product that's accurate to around 1%. So if a user has a problem with THIS oven performing to their expectations, it is the expectations that are wrong, not the oven.

3) And yes it defaults to a different temperature in different modes, OF COURSE. Thats because you need a higher temperature to do air frying than normal roasting (for example) so it defaults to what's probably going to be a good choice for that mode, and then you adjust from there if you feel it appropriate for what you're cooking. This is intelligent and thoughtful design, not a fault. ...if THAT's the biggest problem, you don't have much to complain about.

I also like that the baking tray does double duty as a drip tray under the air frier shelf. This has the hidden benefit that it isn't costing you storage space in your cupboard when you aren't using it.

Would give Following the demise of the oven in our rental premises, and a replacement with a WESTINGHOUSE WVE 6314SD/DD model, it soon became… Read more

evident that the oven seems more like an 'air fryer' than an oven. Having had Westinghouse ovens over many years I was pleased to hear they were being producing ovens again in Australia. However not so sure as I soon discovered that the Fan forced cannot be turned off so s to operate just as an oven for baking a roast. As a result it dries the food out if cooking a roast or any dish removing most moisture or liquid, such as or a dish which contains liquid of any kind whether meat or chicken topped with potatoes which requires open top so as to lightly brown layered potato or a cauliflower dish such as au gratin such as with cheese topping.

Another issue is the shelving which is NOT flat but curved at both front and back and so dishes cannot be slid out of the oven but LIFTed over the raised lip without catching the bottom of dish on the edge of the shelf? For decades I have cooked in ovens and NEVER had to be concerned about removing pans from oven. So which deisn guru decided this was a great moderation to existing ovens which have worked... for decades?

Finally, on the temperature dial / knobs, the temperature knob readings are unevenly spaced making it difficult to align knob and temperature as stated, and to differentiate between precise degrees 150, 160, or 160 / 170, 180 , 200 degrees etc as all being listed very close together as to where the marker on the dial aligns with the true temperature? Rather than marked as 100 at 1'oclock, 120 at 2 oclock as used to be the NORM , and 180 an 6 oclock 200 degrees at 8 oclock etc. evenly spaced, There is no digital readout for exact temperature. Why is keep warm situated at 90 degrees from the topand the temperatures all squeezed in close together? ?? How does one know what exact temperature is set at when trying to align a mark on a knom with a bent like on the wall of the dashboard? If I had the choice I would NOT have purchased this oven. If it ain't broke why do companies insist on messing with what has worked for years?? As to how satisfied with features and design .. am not in any way enamoured. . The way food is cooked... am also not.Just seems like a cheap oven and cannot understand why it has been given 5 stars on many commercial review sites.

I love this washing machine! It cleans my clothes so well it’s so quiet I barely hear it and super easy to clean the filters!
