ALDI Stirling 60cm Ceramic (Jun 2016)

Not satisfied with after sale service – I purchased one STIRLING Ceramic Cooktop (STR-C) in May 2015. After 3 years, one of 1800W cooking zone doesn't work just out of ALDI 3-year warranty. I suspect that the control box was broken due to frequent on and off of high current. I called Tempo to get some help and they said they cannot help because they don't provide Control Box spare part.… Read more

And they ask me to contact local electrician, you understand what I will expect. Disappointed with ALDI appliances and their service. Don't buy long-last appliance from ALDI. Learn lesson from me, not yourself.

Not happy – I've had this cooktop for less than a month, already you can see the saucepan marks with one it has pitted. Spilt a bit of tomato sauce and removed it straight away however the mark will not clean off, to say I'm disappointed is an understatement! I've already written in a complaint and not heard from anyone!

Cooking take almost twice duration compare to old cook top – Performance of cook top heating is terribly bad. It is terribly slow when we compare performance of this ceramic cook top with one we had before which has similar configuration (1800W and 1200W) and installed 10 year back. The heating were much faster.

Good Value Ceramic Cooktop – This Stirling product from Aldi is very neat and presentable. It has Two (2) 1800W and Two 1200W cook plates that heat up very quickly. The ceramic surface is easily cleaned and the unit has a timer function for each cook plate. At $229, this represents great value.
