Product review (1 stars): fortunately for me
do not purchase until Electrolux fixes the handle issue. the handles are primarily made of metal, but the sleeve that wraps around the metal valve for each burner is made of plastic. anyone with half a brain would know that a metal valve is stronger than a plastic sleeve. Guess which one breaks on a monthly basis? fortunately for me, I have the extended warranty (one year standard, but they gave me an extra year for some other lengthy repair issues). I have now replaced all 6 knobs (at $35/ea) over the past 6 months. Lets all do some simple math together, shall we? one knob per month, starting 6 months after purchase. Average life of cooktop stove..... hmmm.... lets be stupid and say 10 years. (Is really gotta be 20, right?) That's 120 months, starting 12 months into your ownership. that's 108 knobs for years 2-10 2$35/ea. Total price of stove: $2000. Total price of knobs for stove: $3780. I'll let you decide on whether or not Electrolux makes sense.
