KitchenAid Slide-In Gas Range

Pros: looks pretty
Cons: doesn't work, expensive to fix, terrible customer service

Our 2 year old gas range was just repaired at a cost of $934.35! It turned out that the control console had heat damage to the circuitry requiring the replacement of the console (354.99) and the timer microcomputer (426.99) plus labor. Clearly this is a design issue as there is no heat shielding or insulation to protect the circuitry in the console. Kitchen Aid was contacted about the problem but denied that it was an issue. Clearly it is.
