wolf e or l series wall oven
Comments (11)Rhome - Thanks for the update on the gagg oven. I have to admit that I do lurk and read your blog - I did see the plight of the pizza. Dodge, thanks for the pics that was very helpful. With my small galley kitchen unfortunately I will either be prepping in front of the oven if it is under the counter next to me or standing directly in front of it is it under the cooktop, neither of which sounds overly appealing. The only option other than the wolf L or e under the counter is to put in a gagg single oven underneath the steamer. Originally I had the kitchen designed with the 30 inch gagg steamer with a single 30 gagg underneath. I got greedy for counter space and went with the 24 in steamer because it's the same size as the 30. Unfortunately that left me with a 24 inch full size cabinet for another oven. I suppose since I have not ordered the cabinets yet I could give up to 6 inches and then I would land up with a 30 inch Gaggenau oven underneath a 24 in steamer but that may look odd. Or stop hemming and hawing and put in the smaller 24 gagg oven.. I just think it may be too small....See MoreWolf Double Oven Porcelain Problems on L-Series?
Comments (3)I am VERY ticked off to see this happening in the upper oven of my Wolf Ls. I can't check the lower oven as I'm running the self-clean now, but I don't remember seeing anything like this when wiping it out before the clean. I'm not sure though as I expected the porcelain issues to look differently. CR@P!!...See MoreSingle Wolf L-series wall oven with Miele speed oven above
Comments (10)First , let me be the FIRST to say, I do not claim to be a Kitchen Designer or Kitchen Architech, alto I did design our curved kitchen--soooo----keeping the "above" in mind, here are 2 things that would "bother me" about stacking a Miele Speed Oven over a wolf Oven. (1) The wolf seems to have a bluish to white display, whilst the Miele Speed Oven is definitely on the orange-reddish side. That would probably really bug me. (2) The Wolf Control panel-display is about the same width as the black & glass area of the door (IE appears as "full width"), whilst the Miele has that smaller window type display area. Again one being directly above the other probably would bug me a bit. As I said , there are far more talented ppl here (design-wise) so maybe they can chime in. To Me the Elux Speed Oven would be a far better match (Lookswise),It has the full width display/control area the display (when lit is blue) and only a white clock shows when the display disappears (if not used for a couple of mins). The Elux Speed oven does not broil and uses a turntable---not a problem for me, but of course , I can't answer for you. You can see both Speed Ovens in use baking potatoes, Mojavean with his Miele and Me with my Elux. I put a link to the GW Post, where you can find The Great Potato Race. Again good luck on your decision and I hope my eye (Old as it may be), will encourage others to either agree with me, or tell me to take a KD Course!!!

Comments (5)I looked seriously at Dacor when I, unfortunately, chose the Monogram instead. I can't remember why I didn't look into that oven again when I got the Wolf. I couldn't find much info or feedback, and it never came up with the salespeople I talked to, I guess. Also, the store who I dealt with who recommended it had closed. But I do think it's worth a look. It was a guy who works in Wolf engineering, where they do extensive testing of other manufacturers' appliances, that steered me toward Electrolux as a 2nd choice if I could afford the Wolf. But ASV reminded me about the glass over the element in Dacor, which I thought was a very smart feature. Also, if you get their dbl that's thermal (not convection) on the bottom, the cavity and, I believe, racks are larger to take advantage of the fact there's no extra fan stealing space. My Wolf's thermal oven cavity is slightly larger than the convection one also, but the racks aren't so the larger cavity is no advantage to me. My repair tech said Dacor was the one he was most impressed with, and my old favorite saleman swore by Dacor and used it as the gold standard...to which he said Elux compared very favorably. If you're willing to look at others beside Wolf and Miele, you might also consider Fisher and Paykel or DCS...if you can confirm you have plenty of available tech support in your area, which I didn't. My F&P oven performed great, but when the porcelain went bad (uncharacteristic for that brand, as far as I know), they had a lot of trouble finding authorized service people to do the changes for me....See Morerhome410
