Product review (1 stars): Fisher Paykel 48" dual fuel range
Bought a new 48" dual fuel range. Turned on the oven, and the oven fan came on immediately. The noise was annoying and quite loud. I downloaded the manual and it stated that the fan would come on after the range reached a certain higher tempertature. I thought there was something wrong. I heard two different stories from the company, that it is supposed to be on all the time and that the manual is wrong, and that there is something wrong with the unit. Two service calls later and I am finally told that the manual is wrong, and that if I want to use the oven, I will have to listen to the fan noise all the time, including at warm degree setting. So, I learned to turn off the oven if I wanted to have a conversation with someone, or leave the room. Two problems: lousy design that makes the fan necessary at all temperatures, and a manual that is incorrect! I would advise not buying a Fisher Paykel range unless you are willing to listen to a fan running all the time.
