It's the only brand our builder offers but we able to request others if we wish. I have never used the brand and have no idea about it except that the builder says it's "great". Re: Opinions on Blanco? 2Aug 02, 2010 3:45 pm My mum had Blanco in her previous home, and with the exception of a blown element in the oven had no real problem in 15 years. We have Blanco in this house as it is what the builder offered. We've only been in 7 months, but so far we are happy with them. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself. Terrence Malick Re: Opinions on Blanco? 3Aug 02, 2010 4:08 pm I have a Blanco oven which has been great, also a concealed rangehood and one light has blown in it but no big deal, suction is good. We also have a Blanco microwave which I think is useless, food just doesn't heat up well in it and you can't "turn off" the turntable which is a hassle if you have square plates. We were supposed to get a Blanco dishwasher as well but I cancelled this after reading bad reviews. Re: Opinions on Blanco? 4Aug 02, 2010 4:55 pm selina2106 , Our builder offered free upgrade to Blanco appliances. Enquired in Kambos n retravision....n dint get good feed back on them, he said they r ok ok, n Westinghouse are far better. So have changed the cuktop, but cant do much with the oven n rangehood Good luck. Re: Opinions on Blanco? 5Aug 02, 2010 8:16 pm I had a Blanco induction cooktop at my old house and loved it so much I got our builder to order me the exact same one for this house! That's the only Blanco item I've ever owned though so probs not much help. |
