Browse Forums Kitchen Appliances Re: Blanco ovens and/or cooktops - your opinions please... 7Jan 27, 2011 2:43 pm ![]() I purchased a Blanco because it was a stand-alone with a gas cooktop and an electric oven, which was the combination I needed for my situation. The oven has never been able to maintain a steady temperature and the repair person has been out to correct it - with modest results. It no longer tries to burn the place down (it was heating over 550 degrees farenheit, no matter what it was set on). Now it will regulate the temp with 100 degrees farenheit differential, meaning if I want the oven temp to be 350d, it will wander anywhere between 300 and 400. Sorry to use farenheit, but all my baking recipes use that, so I keep an oven thermometer, which is how I know its heating is very *. My opinion: Blanco ovens are disasterous, and I am considering buying a separate wall oven to have one that works. The gas cooktop part works beautifully, though. Have you checked your temp gauge is ok,have you tried another one(gauge that is) to be sure it`s the oven? ![]() Re: Blanco ovens and/or cooktops - your opinions please... 8Jan 27, 2011 3:14 pm I reckon it might simply because you have placed the thermometer in a hotspot in the oven and also you have to keep in mind that the voltage supply can vary from the grid and can throw off the calibration of your oven, which is usually done in a controlled environment. For some unknown reason, I am unable to hit send in PM. Could you send me one and I will reply in private? Thanks 24 59862 Looks like AllCastle Homes.
