stove/freezer/fridge advice please!
Comments (2)I've had a Zephyr Breeze II hood (400 cfm) for a year, and I like it. Yep, it's loud - but I'm so happy to have a hood that vents outside, I'm not complaining. I don't find that the controls or the front of the hood get greasy - because that crap is getting sucked outside. I love the light it provides....See MoreAmana bottom-freezer fridge & US appliances?
Comments (4)Thank you Susan! :o) I did not even think of Best Buy! I have had relatively good experiences with them. And I am thinking that the Amana is actually the same as the Whirlpool. But I did end up biting the bullet and ordering the fridge from Home Depot. When I called the Lowe's store in Rockland County, NY near where my grandma lives to get info on fridge and delivery, installation, etc., they put me on hold 5 times to ask me who I was holding for each of those times. Then I FINALLY spoke to someone in appliances who sounded completely unenthusiastic to assist me only to tell me that they don't sell Amana appliances (which I'm not sure is true). So even though I've had great experiences with the Lowe's stores here where I live in Seattle area, I knew after that phone call I did not want to deal with that particular store. Then, I called US Appliances and they told me things that contradicted what was on their website. So they were crossed off my list as well. So after calling other places (except for Best Buy) and looking online for more info and not getting anywhere, I just shrugged my shoulder and thought at this point it doesn't really matter who I buy the fridge from 'cause it seems like they all suck in some way, shape or form! Customer svc. just isn't what it used to be no matter where you go! So the fridge will be delivered the day before Christmas Eve, which is perfect timing because I will be in NY visiting my grandma and the rest of my family for the holidays anyway. And I was pleased that I was able to schedule the delivery for this day! I am looking forward to my grandmother's reaction when she sees a new fridge in her kitchen but am also very apprehensive that Home Depot is going to screw me somehow. Hopefully that won't happen and if it does, oh well, life will go on, I guess!! :o) Anyway, there's my saga. Thanks for reading!!! Kevin...See MoreMiele 36" Fridge and Freezer Columns Info
Comments (9)Repairs update: The big noise was because the diaphragms were frozen up. They are two holes located in the middle of the door. We had a full shelf blocking them, plus while messing around with the ice maker we have been trying out various temperatures. Apparently too for the door to close properly, there can be nothing that extends even a bit off the edge of a shelf. All those things probably contributed to the icing over. Repair person thawed the holes with a steamer and noise is gone. The door also doesn't take as long now to "release" after it suctions itself closed, so that is much more acceptable. With the ice maker they are not sure what is wrong because all the glides and the drawer are installed correctly, and nothing appears to be damaged. They just don't reach the switch. They're going to put in new glides and hopefully that will fix it. Parts are ordered and it will be about a week....See MoreMiele 24" Combi Steam Oven vs 30"? Separate Fridge and Freezer?
Comments (5)If you are getting the Miele Speed Oven then it will work as a second oven. I have both the CSO and Speed along with a 30” wall oven. I mainly use my speed oven as an oven. It has a bottom and top heating element unlike conventional convection microwaves. It has all the oven modes as my CSO except for those needing steam. The CSO can only heat to 435 and the speed to 475. These ovens are more difficult to keep clean than a conventional 30” wall oven. There is no self clean mode and the Miele interior finish is not suppose to be used with oven cleaners like Easy Off. There are several threads about cleaning these ovens. I do not cook foods that produce alot of grease or splatter - those go in my wall oven or on the grill. I have had have my ovens for 7 years and they look not quite like new but almost - I have also not had to do a ”deep” clean on my CSO. I boil water and white vinegar to clean my speed oven. They are geat ovens but they do have their limitations....See Morenyboy
