Customer Reviews

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from Beware. Not self cleaning. Customer service poor I bought this stove in June and I am very sorry that I did. I called customer service numerous times about the self cleaning feature, or lack thereof, only to be told, "We know the Aqualift doesn't work." I would never have bought this stove if I had been made aware of this flaw, but the salesman told me I was getting the best of the best and that all of the features were top notch. I have also complained to them, only to be told I have to deal with the manufacturer, and that "We only sell them, we don't use them."I have tried all of the suggestions made to me to clean the oven, but nothing will get the splatters off.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Rickg1 from Disappointment. We purchased the KitchenAid brand thinking it would be good quality. Range was installed 3 weeks ago and had a damaged door and drawer. Still not replaced. The drawer is really cheap. The metal is single layer of THIN steel. It is also not level. I'm not sure how that will be fixed. It is difficult to open and close. Pushing it closed feels like the metal will bend on the front of the drawer. My wife had a problem turning on the element knobs because they are difficult to turn. It's a little difficult to see where the elements are located because they are outlined with dark markings. We are disappointed with the purchase.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Nana C from Beautiful looking but It is a beautiful looking stove but...stove top is hard to keep clean, oven takes for ever to preheat and the convection oven takes forever to bake anything. I just don't use it because the timing is so different from regular oven baking. But the worse thing is when I use the oven the front edge of the cooktop and anything sitting on the back of the cooktop gets very hot. I have to keep the grandkids away from it totally or they will get burned. Very disappointed and I bought a complete set of Kitchen Aid.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Elaine from Great top range. Aqua self clean oven is terrible Today is Black Friday. Yesterday the turkey listed to one side of the roast pan while baking and created a mess in the oven. Having had self cleaning ovens for years I did not worry as knew I would clean it today. The aqua self clean process was totally unsatisfactory. I spent the majority of the day sopping up water and scrubbing the interior of the oven. After repeating 4 cleaning cycles I gave up. The oven is still not entirely free of baked on soil. A high temperature self clean is much more efficient and produces a sparkling clean interior. I plan to call Kitchenaid tomorrow and voice a strong complaint. My range is only a few months old and this is the first time i used the self clean function.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Happybuyer from Works Well, Minor Issues I have owned this range for about a month. In that time, I have not had any issues with cooking/baking anything. It heats well and everything has cooked in the appropriate amount of time. I will say that it seems as if the outside of the range (near the top of the door) gets warmer than any other model I've ever used. This could be an issue if you have children. Also, the drawer in the bottom feels extremely cheap. It doesn't hold much and it doesn't seem to open/close as smoothly as other models. These aren't deal-breakers for our family, but they might be for yours. Just something you might want to check into before purchasing.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Kevinly from Consider something else HALF STAR RATING. I wish I had known that this product was not going to heat as well as my other stove did. The Convection time is like standard baking time. Boiling water takes far more time than it needs to. And if you are considering buying their panel front dishwasher, I would reconsider that also. Dishes are still wet after washing even with a drying agent. Microwave oven, is not great either. I regret purchasing KitchenAid appliances for my new kitchen.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Corgigrrl from So far so good!! I've only had my new range for a week. After my 27 year old range needed to be replace (only because the oven could no longer be turned on!), I chose this range because it seemed higher quality than the others & I didn't want a Samsung. The cook top is great so far though I'm surprised it doesn't boil water any faster than the old range. I made frozen french fries on covection & they were the best ever! The bottom storage drawer is rather chintzy but I like to way it is so low to the floor so my dogs don't get food stuck under the stove. It's very nice looking in my kitchen along with my new KitchenAid dishwasher in black.

Rated 1 out of 5 by lorrainesfav from Very poor quality for KitchenAid I waited 6 months to give a review to be fair to KichenAid. After my Whirlpool Gold convection oven was damaged beyond economical repair due to an electrical surge, I bought this KitchenAid range. I did a lot of research about the oven and cooktop features. I made sure the wattages of cooktop and oven were within the parameters of my old Whirlpool range. I did not have a large budget so this range was perfect for me as an avid baker and home cook. The first day I cooked in the oven, I noticed the entire surface and door were VERY HOT. I also noticed I had to turn up the heat to a higher temperature than my Whirlpool oven to get the proper results. Then, when I used the cooktop it took forever to to cook in my stainless cookware. I am very frustrated as I really thought this would be the perfect range for me. Also I noticed when I cleaned the top it still showed shadows and smudges. The only thing better than the Whirlpool range is the convection fan is VERY QUIET. I would NOT pick this range if you cook EVERY night and bake a lot like I do. VERY DISSAPOINTED.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Mrskravitz from Not a self cleaning oven!! This is by far the worse range I ever had for one reason... the self clean Aqua Lift is just that.. you self clean it . I spent almost an hour with my head inside the oven scraping and scrubbing the so called loose residue. What is this the 1950’s. So much for American technology. Do not buy this if you want an oven that really self cleans itself . Totally unhappy and disappointed with Kitchen Aid . This is our first purchase of their products. We got the total package and I am so sorry . Gave it one star for the oven because it effects my total opinion.

Rated 3 out of 5 by John from Stovetop great, Oven not so. We bought this a month before Thanksgiving thinking this was the answer to our past problems at this time of the year. The turkey took about an hour and a half longer than it should have at that temperature. Then we found that everything takes longer than any of the directions say. I read that you can adjust the settings to your own liking. I don't understand why a temp of say 350 degrees would not put out 350 degrees. without having to do anything. I moved the calibration setting twice and maybe have to move it up again. I don't think I shoul have to do anything. Please explain how I can tell if it is a defect.
