Pros: Good looks, great control panel, multi-featured, well built and reliable
Cons: Expensive, but so are all high-end ovens
Summary: Having just written a review that was less than glowing about our Thermador 60" venthood, I thought it only fair to write a review of our other Thermador product, the C302 ovens - which are simply fantastic. I don't know where to begin other than to sa ...

Pros: Easy to clean.
Cons: Expensive, unreliable, loud, heartbreaking!
Summary: I urge you, if you are a serious cook/baker - do not purchase this oven! The whole family (24 people) were due for a Thanksgiving feast - with a Norman Rockwell roasted turkey in my sparkly new oven in our spankin' new home/kitchen reno debut... ...

Pros: Gorgeous style/appearance. Rapid pre-heat. Good temperature calibration
Cons: Lousy quality and failure to take responsibility for an endemic quality problem inherent in product.
Summary: I do not own one of the units, however, I am a home inspector and get see and operate them (and many other makes/models) on a regular basis.These units seem to exhibit a chronic and widespread problem with the LCD displays. The displays have a ...

Pros: If you're lonely and want lots of visits, you'll have plenty from the repair person.
Cons: Everything won't break at the same time so I can't justify replacing it.
Summary: Beautifully looking and performs well when it works. For the price ($3500) you'd expect it to work for a while, at least a few years. I installed it as part of a home remodel that was finished in 2003. Within a couple of months I had the lower ...

Pros: Nice design, touch pad all controls, good documentation and instructions for use, large ovens
Cons: Poor cust. serv. attitude, poor quality/delivery of parts, convection DOES NOT COOK ANY FASTER,
Summary: I agree 100% with all of the other reviewers of this oven except "ADULTVIEW (Oct 2003)" who must not own the same oven that I and the others do! It is actually quite a relief to see that others have experienced nearly the same headaches that we have ...

Pros: The oven has many features. It also has a very sleek look to it.
Cons: Besides the controller problem, the temperature calibration seems to be off. Customer sevice terrible.
Summary: Less than two years ago, I had to replace the computer controller for this oven, at a cost of $294, and now the exact same problem has re-occurred. Yet, the manufacturer not only refuses to acknowledge the defect, but the customer service representative

Pros: Very nice looking from the outside.
Cons: Basically worthless as a baking oven-doesn't regulate temperature with any consistancy.
Summary: I thought Thermador was a top-notch brand and well built/engineered. The price I paid should've guaranteed as much. I bake a lot and both ovens have been highly problematic. I've had the computer mother board replaced three times and racked up over a

Pros: Looks great
Cons: Preheating takes forever.
Summary: I built a very large home with a large number of appliances - this oven is absolutely terrible. The oven takes 25 minutes to heat up to cook a pizza. Also - the buttons are not easy to use. I would not recommend this product - we had 3 service calls

Pros: I cannot recommend it!!!
Cons: Thermador refused to pay labor costs to fix it,aprox $1,250.00 Oven only 4 years old!
Summary: The lining cracked a few months after we installed it,the self cleaning feature is horrible,and my glass door cracked.Food gets in between the inner and outer glass doors and you have to get a technician to clean it for you,and Thermador does not stand

Pros: Attractive stainless steel exterior
Basic operation is good (for an electric oven)
Cons: Display reliability
Loud cooling fan noise long after oven turned off
Summary: While this is an attractive unit that performs well in normal use it appears to have a serious design flaw in the reliability of its computer display - which fails within a few years from overheating. This was confirmed by the technician that repaired

Pros: Cooks well and looks great
Cons: Generic problem with computer display, expensive to fix, Thermador fails to recognize issue.
Summary: Ovens cook well and look great. However, the display is flawed and has generic problem that Thermador refuses to acknowledge. The display LED loses its brightness with time until it diminishes completely. I know personally of three other units with

Pros: Bakes evenly and the turbo feature is excellent
Cons: Not durable - temperamental computer stopped working into its second year
Summary: I had this oven for two years and when it works, it works well. However, I have been wrestling with computer fault codes for months now. The authorized service is slow, not very knowledgeable and failed to properly diagnose and fix the problems. I had

Pros: Looks Great, fairly easy to use touch screen
Cons: Cooling / Exhaust fans can get noisy even after replacement
Summary: I've owned the Thermador C302U Double Oven since May 2001. Since that time there have been 4 service calls for the doors not closing properly. Each time new hinges were needed and /or heavier duty hinges installed. The latest and 5th service call was
