 How old is it now,, a Briva I'm guessing.
The KA tall tub in this house only lasted 7 years but in that time it required a new circuit board and heating element, costly repairs that I managed to get covered, then the rinse-aid dispenser went kaput or was leaking in the door, didn't bother fixing that, then it just up and quit earlier this year...
And I bought another KA.. but from the looks of this one it's really just a WP with KA name on the front..time will tell. So far it's working quite well | ||

It's funny how unique each person's experience is with different brands. I've had nothing but great experience with KtichenAid and will continue to highly recommend them to friends and relatives. | ||

This is awful! God this is terrible, I'm so sorry you're dealing with it. (I have a kitchenaid range, and while it is okay and does what I want,I don't pretend it is the kitchenaid of old days) | ||

A co-worker of mine purchased a Kitchenaid built-in microwave during her kitchen renovation and had an absolutely horrible experience with KA. I couldn't count the times I would overhear her talking with Customer Service about problems. I can't imagine what it would take to get her to agree to a Kitchenaid anything after that experience.

This is a tactic that is happening across the Whirl-crap line.
Last Christmas I had a wire, yes it was a wire burn through on my Maytag range. I was told by the Maytag dealer that Whirl-crap no longer supported this modes because it was over 10 years old. It was a wire. No, they say a Wire harness. The repair man made me a replacement, but advised that if anything else went wrong with the range I would have to replace it as they could not longer get parts. If I have to replace it, anyone want to bet me money it won't be with a Whirlpool family appliance. I saw a GE I like very well, it had possibilities. That is if I do end up having to deplete my checking account, max my credit card and selling my child. Hopefully I won't have to do so for awhile. | ||

Longevity.
I work in an appliance parts store. We tell people that most appliances have a lifespan of 5-7, except for LG and Samsung appliances, which are closer to 3 years. The failues which tend to kill more appliances than any other are electronic control failures. Electronic controls tend to be expensive, frequently propriatary, and quickly NLA. An otherwise functional appliance is rendered scrap by the failure of a relatively small electronic control.
GE refrigerators eat WR55X10942 boards like candy to the tune of $150.00 a pop, for example. No matter what you buy, PUT IT ON A SURGE PROTECTOR!!!!! Dave | ||
