We purchased this Electrolux Range and it arrived with the racks not properly welded and they collapsed! We have had the oven repaired >10 times in the first three years. We had a gas leak from a burned out component. Finally we tried to run the self clean and this "fried" the electronics and we could no longer open the oven door. We did not receive adequate support Electrolux ICON. We even called corporate headquarters in the USA and Sweden and the calls were NEVER returned. The exterior of this product with the stainless steel looks great., but the interior components did not hold up! This is the worst appliance we have ever purchased and it is actually dangerous.

I will need to replace my Dacor Downdraft with 8" rise, 3 speed remote and 1000 CFM blower when we redo the kitchen. I just found an Electrolux Icon downdraft that has a variable speed 10" rise and 1600 CFM remote blower for $1400. Dacor's equivalent system is $2050 ($1580 for only 1000 CFM) Any comments good or bad from those of you with Icon downdraft? Noise, cleaning, operation, etc.

The 36 looks beautiful! I have to get a 30 inch. Checked out ajmadison and they have an Electrolux that might just do it. Model EWDF65GS. The EW#LDF65GS is the same price, but when doing a comparison the latter has lower burner outputs. Both are the same price. One reviewer wasn't happy with his Electrolux,but you can't please everyone. The only thing that I would want to know is how to override the electronic ignition for the oven. I think there is a way to do it. One of the reasons for getting a gas stove is for when our power goes out, which is more than I care for. Thanks so much! You may have helped me find my stove. :) Here is a link that might be useful: Electrolux E36DF76GPS

Without the ability to get "On-Site service", You should be going with 2 separate ovens!!! Why???? (1) Double ovens, (regardless of manufacturer),fail much more often than do single brands---Yes even Wolf and Electrolux! Not a huge problem with these 2 brands, but if you are "In the Sticks" you need the best "Possible Odds" that you won't need service and Single ovens increase your Odds that you won't need service. (2) In many cases, (in fact most cases), when one of the double ovens fail, the other oven is also down. They share "main boards" etc, So with 2 single ovens, if one goes down, (Yeah U may be "cookin' on 4 Cylinders") but ya still got another 4-----Ya know what I mean?? As far as Elux Icon Single oven, I can vouch for the reliability and performance--(trouble free since 2006) when we bought it new. We will do a turkey in a couple weeks as we have done every year, and we haven't found one that won't fit in the icon---even thou I guess the shelves are a big shorter (front to back) than the non Icon model, no big deal (at least to us) if the turkey pan hangs a bit over the front and back of the grate (if it does atoll). The fully extending glide our racks sure come in handy with a heavy turkey, especially since our oven is mounted under the counters. Good luck with your upcoming decisions!! Gary
