GE Monogram vs. Electrolux Icon Appliances
Comments (7)For the most part, the standard advice is to shop around for the best of each appliance regardless of manufacturer. For instance, while GE makes a great range, their refrigerators tend to be lacking. Both Icon and Monogram score high in my book for dual fuel range/gas rangetop, & wall oven. I am not at all impressed with either brand's refrigerators. Everytime I open an Icon refrigerator I am disappointed--the exterior wrapping looks so nice then the inside is just a let down. I didn't want to be depressed everytime I went for something in the fridge so I crossed them off my list. Anyway, back to the topic at hand--manufacturers want you to buy all your appliances from them and that's why they run those rebates. Often you can find just as good an overall deal by shopping piece by piece. The only place I find it common to have all one brand of appliance is in builder houses where they are getting a killer deal with no sales tax either by doing so. In our home, we went with the Monogram 36" 6 burner rangetop, Monogram double oven, Monogram hood (only got the hood in Monogram because of the $1,000 rebate with that combo and I really didn't have a hood brand preference), 2 KA dishwashers and a Samsung refrigerator. Mom has a Viking 36" 6 burner rangetop, Miele double oven, 2 Bosch dishwashers and a KA refrigerator. The appliances coordinate nicely in both homes and neither of us have anyone comment on whether or not they all matched brandwise. Hope this helps & happy hunting!...See MoreElextrolux / ICON / Pro or Designer help
Comments (14)I have the sales brochures for the Elux ovens, which show the both the "Pro" and "Designer" series. If you like, I can mail them to you, it shows the Fridges, and DW's too. Also the wine fridge, which I have, and again trouble free, cept once a year or so I hafta clean the cat hairs out of the filter for it, but takes maybe a half hour. My Email is: glj1942@hotmail.com so if you email me your address I will send these brochures, keep as long as you want, but eventually send them back in case somebody else here would like to see them. (Hopefully it's not against the rules to post email addy). I'm just an old f*** and not a dealer, seller, etc etc). Also I recalls Trevor, at Euro Stoves, In Mass, showed a picture of his place and in that picture was the Elux Icon Designer series Oven and Speed Oven, as I recall----so You may want to contact him first, to see if He still has those ovens, If He does, There is NO BETTER PLACE to buy them. I have a Dental appointment now, (cleaning) yeah I still have my own teeth, how bout that??? AFter I get back I will post a picture or 2 from the oven, but I think the brochures will be more helpful. Later, Cheers! Gary...See Moreelux icon or ka speed cook / wall oven combo
Comments (17)Just a note, in case anyone is considering the Elux Icon "Professional" style High Speed Oven because of its styling. The AJ Madison site, as well as a couple of other appliance sellers online have photos of the Icon high speed oven which DO NOT represent the actual oven. Their photos make the design look substantially better IMO. The actual oven has the door window considerably narrower than the controls window or the handle. The mysteriously revised photo shows the oven door window equal in width. We've called Elux today, and one of the online dealers, and no one can explain the two different photos. All the photos indicate the same Model number. The dealer says it's a generic photo given to them by Elux. And Elux says they have no idea what the photo is. Here's a link to Google Images for Icon Pro High Speed oven which will pull up many examples showing the window both narrow and wide. The NARROWER window is the real thing according to Elux. Too bad, because it does not match the width of the single wall oven. We were hoping that the wider window is a new revised version coming up, but Elux denies it. Here is a link that might be useful: Icon PRO High Speed Oven photos...See MoreNew model Electrolux Icon Wall Oven
Comments (8)What perfect timing for this posting. I just returned from PC Richards where, almost 3 months ago, I purchased the Electrolux E30EW85EPS Icon Professional 30" Double Wall Oven. I held off on delivery awaiting cabinets. They called last week, would deliver my oven today. They called yesterday to inform us that model is no longer available! I called Electrolux in GA yesterday and they confirmed the model no longer is available (however it is still listed on their website..go figure) but it has been replaced by the newer, more features, Model E30EW85GPS. They said it is exactly the same just more features. I noted that the newer model comes w/a meat probe and more features than the discontinued model I originally ordered. Due to PC Richard's error, we have now ordered the newer model (more money) which they/Electrolux will absorb so I feel it's a win/win situation for us. The new oven arrives tomorrow!!!...See Morehvtech42
