Everdure UFEE51

Good luck cooking – Worst oven ever. 3 years old and rusty, enamel peeling, and hotplates are so rusted and damaged with everyday careful use. In 3 years, we have basically wasted so much food due to the extreme heat this produces. It doesn't heat evenly and will either burn, or undercook food, with seemingly no in between. The glass gets a smoky look over time and will not clean off. The numbers faded within a year. Show details

Everdure UFEE511 Stove – I purchased this stove at Bunnings at Bundaberg at the end of 2015 (who incidentally no longer sell the product, I wonder why??????) The stove body, including the oven doors started to show signs of rust at about 18 months. The rust has now, after two and a half years, got to the point where I can scrape the so called enamel off with my finger… Read more

nail. The enamel is so thin that it just peels off. It's not just that the surface is rusting, the metal underneath is breaking away, it looks to me like the metal used in manufacturing this stove must have rusty to start with. I am currently sitting about 3 metres away from the stove and I can clearly see the enamel? bubbling all around the glass panels and handles on the oven doors. The solid elements have also rusted considerably. Just as a side issue the numbers on the facia and the dials are now virtually unreadable. When I contacted the company who make/import the product (after I had sent them 20 odd photos of the rust areas) have told me the rust is due to (in their own words) "lack of duty of care and maintenance". I have never heard so much rubbish in all my life. The company has refused to discuss the matter any further. My parents had a Metters range (for those who are old enough to remember), which after 50 years, yes 50 years had not one sign of rust anywhere. What ever happened to good old fashioned manufacturing, not to mention after sales service. I do not hold Bunnings responsible in this matter, I believe they sold the product in good faith.

May 21st 2018 Update: Rust on Everdure Stove

Good afternoon.

I submitted a review of my Everdure UFEE511 stove on the 18th of May just gone.

In response to my review I was contacted by [name removed], the Customer Service Manager at Shriro Austrlia.

As a result of my conversation with [name removed], the company (Shriro) have offered to send me a new stove.

After talking with [name removed], I believe that my stove may be just a on off bad one in the bunch. It happens. I can not believe that Shriro or any company would knowingly sell a product which would rust out in such a short time.

I found [name removed] to be very professional and a pleasure to deal with.

Don't bargain with rubbish – I bought this waste of space, from the Coffs Harbour Bunnings Warehouse, a year ago and regretted the choice when it arrived damaged on the same day. As soon as I used it that night the knobs that are positioned at the front, all began to fall off... each being set with a spring in combination with the heat generated they began to drop onto the… Read more

floor so I had to recover the pieces and learn how to assemble an oven, (as one does?). So having to remove the springs I can now "just cook" with no technical hang-ups. Then after a couple of months the knobs had lost most of the numbers off them, giving no indicator to see of which setting is being used... great. It cooks, yes, it cooks, so can a camp fire but a camp fire doesn't cost hundreds of dollars and has as many features. This Everdure oven would be more better utilized as an anchor. P.S As soon as the product walks out the door Bunnings Warehouse will not want it back and will claim ignorance to any concern a purchaser may voice. Buyer be very Beware!

Be Wary of Everdure stoves – We bought an Everdure stove at Chirnside Park. it rusted out with in 4 years at a holiday house with very little use. .Bunnings wouldnt repace it as I had lost the receipt but could prove that I had an electrician install it. They knew they had sold the stove as I had the serial number.(I actually took the stove back to the store as replaced it… Read more

with a well known brand stove. The rust was so bad I do not think the customer service people believed I was genuine . I am a regular Bunnings purchaser and felt poorly treated. The staff tried to help but would not replace the item .It cost me the electician and the stove and so greatly out of pocket. I would advise any one not to touch everdure stoves or cook wear. I noticed they still stock the stoves and there was already evidence that the enamel was ready to bubble.

Good product, quite happy with it – This oven was already installed in a house I bought. I have been using it for over three years and no issues with it. Cooks well and hot plates are pretty good. I assume the previous owner chose to take the original oven with them and bought this as an inexpensive replacement as it is smaller than the space available for it. I would buy one if I was short on space.

Terrible product – Within first two weeks the oven broke but had already melted laminate on kitchen bench. The knobs are at the front and totally unsafe for anyone with children. Caused a fire when turned on by toddler and now family is homeless. Do not buy if you have small children or don't want to be constantly checking if it overheating. Overheats and not childsafe

Absolute Garbage – I have never purchased such a horrible stove. I have had it for 15 months and already replaced it. The oven elements were breaking as well as two of the cook top elements. Nothing cooked evenly and the stove got so hot that is scorched my brand new kitchen cupboards. Purchased it and bunnings and they were not very helpful with the brand they… Read more

sell. Coincidentally they are the only one that sell it too. I got so scared that it would burn down the house I replaced it after It was smoking.

When a cooker heats up that much you get worried that it can cause a fire or burn your cupboards. Warranty was not good and I was told it would cost $400 to fix.

Just terrible quality
