Chef CFE547WA (White)

Does the job- just – This is cheapest oven on the market & it really shows.This oven takes a long time to warm up, inconsistent heat and if you’re trying to use more than two hot plates expect to lose heat (enough to ruin your cooking). That said, it’s better than lighting a fire outside or microwaving meals for life.

Value for money – Small and simple design that still cooks our meals for a family of 5. Love the griller as you can close the door. Pretty easy to clean the cook top. easy to read dials. Sturdy racks in the oven. Cooks some of the best roasts we have done in an electric oven.

It is a basic product at a basic price – It's a good price point, great for putting in rentals. Pretty much indestructible. It cooks food what else do you want apart from the name value to show off to your friends, and make them jealous of your implied success, and conversely their failure. Brands are rally a way for modern society to mark territory

glass door explodes within 4 weeks of purchase – purchased this oven for my mother four weeks ago & the internal glass pane has exploded during cooking. Hot glass fragments over the kitchen floor - was a foot away when it happened. Company representatives are all very policy line on the matter. The technician given the job of assessing the mess obviously careful of admission of liability says it could be a week before the company head office make a decision..........

Hopefully Electrolux owned businesses are endowed with a customer service centric approach, not that I'm entirely sure even a new replacement oven would inspire confidence at this point.

Will be following the customer service angle closely on this as I'm in the branded appliance industry. Love supporting companies with excellent CS though those that don't need a little reminder.
