Humans can't make good stoves anymore
Prior to this I had an old New World electric stove from about 1960. It was not fan forced, it had no fancy features, it just WORKED! PERFECTLY! My shortbread, bread, pies and cakes were the envy of the town. Unfortunately after 60 years the switches were failing, the large burner wouldn't work, spares were unobtainable so I had to buy something new. ;-(
The WLE525WB was cheap and had all the tried and true features of my old New World unit... except it was fan forced ONLY. Everyone said "fan-forced is wonderful" except my mother who warned me...Read more

It is not a good look for a company when obviously faulty units are passed by QC and sent out. Thanks Thailand! The second unit had some minor factory damage to the rear but since that was not visible I let it go and had it installed. I did notice that the steel was considerably thinner than the old New World which was built to last! Everything worked, the unit looks fine and the price was right BUT things didn't work as well as they did on my old New World:Purchased in March 2021 at Bi-Rite Electrical Physical store for A$739.00.

Does its job
I bought this as a replacement for Westinghouse Kimberly that came with our house - must have been 10+ old :).

The oven cooks food evenly - cooks my lasagna in exactly the time the recipe says. I like that the big burner is at the front unlike other brands that it's at the back - when you use a wok, it doesn't fit properly, this one.. does nicely.
The oven door is a step up as well - no panel is removable and spatters won't get in between panels - looks like in one piece. This will be easier to cle...Read more
an. I don't like the grill tray though. It doesn't retract smoothly. It needs a bit of pull and push to move it. The timer doesn't ring loud enough. I've only heard it once so far out of 10 or so instances of using it.
