Ariston CP059MDX

This unit has great stove and oven but its basic component is poor in quality. The oven door rubber seal doesn't last long and is not part of warranty which shows that the company doesn't believe on the quality of its own product. I have the product and just over 4 years the rubber seal is already broken.

We bought this 5 years ago, and whilst it looks nice, the door seal failed after 12 months. They were happy enough to send a replacement the first time, then it failed again after 12 months and i have just rung hoping to get another under warranty (yes it took me 3 years). After waiting on hold for half an hour, i was informed that the door seal is a 'consumable item' and is not covered by warranty. So, $65 later, I'll likely get another 12 months with a working door seal before this one fails. A family member has the same stove and exact same problem.. i guess the running cost is now $65/year for door seal replacements. I might order two next time and save on postage...

Love my Ariston 90cm oven
Cant find new racks as originals have rusted
10 yrs old going well must get all burners going on auto
Food cooks perfectly well
No problem reccomending this brand to anyone

Built a new home 6 years ago with a suite of Ariston products (Dishwasher died after 2 years, range hood now sounds like a 747 and keeps blowing globes). The biggest lemon is the stove. Numerous problems with the oven thermostat, thankfully fixed during the warranty period although begrudgingly by Ariston. Then problems with the oven door....just kept falling off. The burners just do not want to light sometimes. The oven fan sounds like a clothes dryer. I do a lot of cooking and baking and was excited about getting this stove. Unfortunately, th...

A really great oven, still going strong after 10 years, only needs replacement grill element, tightening door hinges and replace fan. Grill elements work efficiently. Cooks beautifully and evenly. Looks good in our kitchen too!

This oven has been a huge disappointment, as has the customer service. It can take several minutes to ignite the burners, just standing there pushing and turning the knobs while it ticks hoping for it to light every night- very frustrating. Then often when it finally lights it will erupt in a burst of flames and you want to be standing well back when it does. The power of the burners is irregular and you have to judge how hot it is by the size of the flames under your pot as they differ from use to use. When I had a technician come to look at i...

Bought a CP 059 MD.3 (X) F model Ariston in 2009. It's been a great appliance, cooking for a large family.
Looking to change ovens so checking what others think. This model is still around, without change, so shows how good it must be.
All the functions work well. It has stood up to 10 years of cleaning without a hitch. Only thing I replaced this year was the oven seal, which was readily available on-line and an easy job. Well done ARISTON

Bought a CP859 in 2005. Looks great and two dinner plates fit side by side in the oven. Thermostat failed when first switched oven on. Repaired under warranty but blew when the technician switched oven on. Third thermostat lasted for several years. Fan element blew as did top element. Door seals replaced three times. Stencils wear out if front of oven cleaned so fascia replaced and it no longer gets cleaned Jets on two of the burners replaced right front burner still pathetic.
Clock had to be replaced.
Thermostat has failed again. Looking to buy another brand.
Looks great but prefer a reliable oven to cook with.

We have had this oven in our home since new. It is now about 7 years old and in this time we have been through 2 oven fan elements (now on our third) at over $100 a pop plus an electrician to install. And about 2 years ago the time display started to dull and now doesn’t work at all. This was over $200 just for the part so never bothered to get it repaired.
We find the oven gets hotter than what it is set to and the trivet for the small burner is too big for our little pots. The cast iron trivets also aren’t quite right, causing pans and pots ...

Out of warranty now (9 yrs old) and the following is broken/need replacing: clock, back right burner, door seal, thermostat (not always reliable), oven door hinges, upper element (grill doesn’t work), oven door seal. I have already replaced the following: oven door glass (it just shattered while I was cooking!), oven door seal (3x). Even when it was working it had cold spots and wouldn’t bake evenly. I feel cheated. I cook a lot and endure this price of garbage every day. I’m saving for a replacement.

This is the most terrible oven/gas cooker, and I recommend you don't buy this oven. Everything that can go wrong has, and Ariston do not want a bar of you once you have gone out of your 2 year warranty. All components of the oven have broken down or do not work, from the electronic ignition for the gas burners, to the oven door not closing, to the light in the oven failing, the front light panel where you choose options for the oven also faded and does not work, to the oven door not closing, which by the way cost $675 to fix and the repair ma...

After 3 years and a couple of initial problems I would like to add to my initial rather negative review and say that I am quite happy with my Ariston stove. I love the wok-burner which provides very high heat necessary for restaurant quality Asian cooking. Also the extra frypan trivett, the small, simmer trivett (which I also use for my Bellman Espresso coffee maker). I'm enjoying the large oven space and the self-cleaning option. I do find it necessary to clean the glass door however, and for this I use a gentle non abrasive cleaning agent and soft cloth.

Great adjustable burners& amazing temp control in oven,I can make yogurt in it 37-38 degrees.Timer very easy to use.Have to use fifty words so I am now wasting space but I am very happy.The first night I cooked at 9 pm (normally 6pm) because I had to throw away the old Eurolec (thank goodness)& the 3 pizzas at once were perfectly cooked

Ariston has designed a brilliant oven here.. it comes with a 5 year warranty as well as being an Italian company .. they know food .. most importantly the oven has only around a 3° variation in temperature so is a very accurate cook due to the way they have built in the insulation.

Oven Door is almost impossible to remove for cleaning inside oven. Self cleaning does not work well.
Temperature indication is not accurate, according to oven thermometer.Otherwise cooking is reliable.
Timer is easy to set.We have not had any other problems since installation. We had to ask for the slide out trays as they were not deloivered with the oven. It turned out that was because it was a misprint in the brochure. However Ariston honoured the mistaken offer and sent the parts.
