New lease of life for my Ilve Cooktop – My very expensive 90cm free standing Ilve cooktop / oven has been great for almost 20 years. Being a handyman, I've replaced fan forced element,… Read more

Thermostat, Top element, hinges (twice), oven lights twice, including those ridiculously expensive glass covers. Lately, though, my large "triple ring" wok burner gas hob, has been flaming from under the hob......This was caused by the warping of the aluminium hob, not sitting on the stainless steel outlet flatly. A replacement unit was $252, + postage......that's crazy!! I could almost buy a new cooktop for that price. A much more palatable alternative, was to just buy the aluminium base at $88....still pricey, but affordable (just). It took patience and about 45min but the results were perfect.

When going to WWA they are send us to General White Goods for Repair or Eurolink. As a customer I am not supposed to know all this ILVE is not taking any responsibility. AS a result I am disappointed with this product which cost more than AUD $4000 from Hervey Norman. Please think twice before you buy ILVE product in Australia. Thanks
