Electrolux EW30IS65JS Broiler

10 years ago

Hello All -

I've been reading and re-reading everyone's posts about the GE Profile PHS920SFSS, Electrolux EW30IS65JS, et al induction ranges. The information has been incredibly helpful. My question has to do with the broiler. Specifically, the reviews I have read say the Electrolux is great, but the broiler is terrible. Can anyone comment on their experiences with the broiler? Of course, any other input to help me decide between these two would be welcome!

Both The Elux and GE have 8 pass broilers.

The GE is rated at 3800 Watts, and the Elux at 4000 Watts.

I looked at some other ovens too, the new Bosch broiler is rated at 3800 watts, and Wolf doesn't specify (they count on buyers wearing blindfolds).

Elux does seem to have one of the highest powered broilers of any oven that I found, and Consumer reports gave it's broiling abilities an "Excellent Rating".

That's the good news on the Elux,~~~~~but~~~~~ there are a lotta negative reviews about the reliability of the Elux Induction range, and the lack of knowledge of service personnel in being able to solve problems.

You can see these rewiews on several sites, AJMadison, Amazon, etc, so take the time to read those!

Looking at the reviews on the GE, they are considerable higher than the Elux, and at least on Amazon only 1 bad review, "Smell from burning off", sooo unless Elux has fixed the problems with this range I would buy the GE, even thou I love my Elux appliances and all have been trouble free for about 8 years now, except the induction cooktop~~~~it has been trouble free, but I've only had it for about 5 years.

Electrolux Slide In Range vs cooktop plus walloven
Q

There are lots of threads about the wall oven vs. range debate. I'll link one below. It's really a matter of personal preference and how your kitchen space works. I chose a double wall oven because I prefer to be able to look in the oven at eye level. Even my lower oven is higher than a range oven. Like a2, I find it more comfortable to cook without the hot oven right there in front of me. Also, I like having a utensil drawer right under the cooktop, as well as the pot and pan drawers below. On the plus side for a range, the oven is under the hood, so you get better ventilation. There's also the question of double oven vs two singles (if there's a problem with the controls, both ovens go out if it's a double, but one will still work if two singles.) Also to consider is range/wall oven plus steam oven or range/wall oven plus speed oven. Here is a link that might be useful: wall oven vs. range

I'd say that what you want is a Speed Oven. The ones I see most on here are GE (Advantium), Electrolux, and Miele. A cruise of AJMadison shows there are also Bertazonni, Bosch, and Smeg. There may be others that are just combos but not speed ovens. I thought Kitchen Aid had one, but I'm not seeing it. And I'm not sure all the ones I listed can broil. But it's a start. If you search on speed oven here, you'll find plenty to read. :) I have one that will be installed soon, just not quite yet.

You can search GW (scroll to the bottom of the page) for both of these models. I've attached a link below for my inital review of the induction range. I really like mine... but there are always a few caveats (see link). The fans I don't notice too much, but they do stay on for a long time (ie: 1 hour+ past finished cooking time). Here is a link that might be useful: My original E'lux slide in thread
