Gas stove Oven - Euromaid, Chef or Westinghouse

Hi guys

Need quick response for my question.

I have an IP that requires a replacement of a gas cook top and oven.
60mm Euromaid costs $998.00 to purchase but further costs to remove and install. The gas fitter recommended a Chef or Westinghouse which would be $1760 to remove the old one and dispose of it and install the new one.

Any bad experience with Euromaid?

 

make sure you buy extended warranty up to 5 yrs, then you are set

 

So euromaid in your opinion is fine?

 

it is a generic brand, not particular bad or good, as long as it has insurance, the manufacturer/ insurer will fix it if problems arise. if it is for your own home, I will not recommend it.

 

We moved into a home with Euromaid oven - it was crap and when the clock broke, the whole oven died. Cost $400 to replace the clock, and the customer service was appalling. We ended up replacing it with a Fisher and Paykel oven and we love it.

 

For IP. The gasfitter recommended Chef or Westinghouse but even with 5 year warranty, i will be paying $1,133 as opposed to $1800.

 

As @JessicaP said, Euromaid is crap. Personaly, I'd go Westinghouse out of the 3 x options you've provided or make sure the extended warranty on the cheaper brands is likely to be honored for the next 5 years.

 

Thanks guys for your contributions.

 

Fully agree, euromaid is rubbish

 

Westinghouse all the way reliable and at least they honour the warranty

 

Guess'n your talking about a 2 piece built-in unit

Yes.

 

@larrylarry Did you end up buying a Euromaid one? I am interested getting this Euromaid portable stove/oven for my granny flat in Logan:

Good guys have 20% off everything on their ebay shop online. Free delivery if you click and collect. You might be able to get a decent brand. I think the sale ends tomorrow

 

They are all pretty much the same in my opinion! Can't see Euromaid being considerably inferior to the others.

 

You have never had a Chef oven or stove then? I live in a shared house where the builder installed these abysmal appliances. I went halves with the owner to get rid of them. I hated them that much. Oven got replaced with a Westinghouse. Stove got replaced with a Blanco. The replacement appliances are brilliant! Both are secondhand too. Gumtree specials. Gotta love gumtree.

 

I bought euromaid and no complaints so far since February.

 

I have a preference for mid range items. No point buying cheaper items if it's costs just as much to install it - costs you more in the long run.

I tend to stick with Westinghouse and
Bosch.

 

I only use Westinghouse for home.

 

I'm surprised by the negative comments about Euromaid. We have a washing machine and dryer and they have been fine for the three years we've had them. The dryer in particular is excellent and great value for money (it is a condenser dryer which is normally quite a bit more expensive in competing brands).
