Hotpoint Ranges Reviews

Unit was broken and company will not replace or refund. I unboxed unit, waited until house was finished being painted before unboxing. Damaged was found on unit but because it was after 7 days I was told it is not covered. I paid for a working undamaged unit not a damaged unit. Customer service is the worst. Just gives the same reply to all conversation, which only happens through email.

DO NOT BUY!!! I have had 3 washing machines, 1 dryer in 1 year. The washer was replaced 3 times!! The one I have now is less than a year old and it's messed up!!! You are wasting your money!! (They would not give me another brand). They would get a zero if they had one!!!

Hotpoint ovens or pieces of **. It took me 9 hours to cook a 15 pound bird. And when the stove gets hot, the burners, they shut off and then you have to fan them. So they come back on and this is all a brand new one, they've had given us 3 of them so far this apartment, the pieces of **, I don't know why I just don't go back to the old ones, they work a lot better. I will never ever ask anybody to buy a hot point to me.They're no good....

I would give it zero stars if I had a chance, our a brand new Hot Point stove for a tenant within six months the two little burners quit working, he called me. I told him it was still under warranty and I would get it taken care of, but he decided to get another stove so he wouldn’t be without one and he asked me to come and get the other one. I had no place to put it but in my storage unit. I called GE, they sent a repairman out. He said that he would send he would order the parts and return when they came in, time passed and he didn’t come back so I called him, he told me to call the company, the company said that I had voided my warranty because I did not have it in a temperature controlled environment, and they said that he said that we that I had rusted wires. The stove was only six months old when this happened. I think I paid almost $600 for this thing and now it’s supposedly not worth anything? Would you be happy? I’m not.

We bought a GE Hotpoint range from Lowe's, did not heat up from the time it got here. They came and got it. Never replaced it. Refunded my money. Went to a different Lowe's and got the same stove. It was delivered same problem. After 20 calls to Ge they set up for a certified technician to come to my house. He never came out. Just called on the phone and basically told me he wasn't coming to fix it but over the phone he was telling it wasn't the range it was my house. I've had an electrician change wire, breaker, change from a 4 prong to a 3 prong. Range still not working I've been making meals out of a crock pot, roasting pan, a griddle, microwave and a hot plate. GE has been no help whatsoever. I will never buy GE again.

After a year maybe 1 month over one of the prongs from my saucepan plate fell off. Contacted customer service who kindly called me (probably reversed the charges). I got told it’s a chargeable part. Now after 12 months maybe 13 a part like that shouldn’t fail. Even worse if it was being used at the time what was cooking would of fell off causing a serious burn issue for whoever was using it. Not to mention if there was a young child near it. Whirlpool (Hotpoint) don’t give a damn about their poor quality goods and even less about their customers. All they're interested in is money. I would never touch them again and would advise people to steer clear.

My Hotpoint gas range oven was manufactured in May 2017. I replaced it in November 2021. I'm a single guy - how often do I really use the oven? And yet after four years, the appliance guy told me I needed a new thermostat. The cost to replace it was almost the cost for a new oven so goodbye Hotpoint!

The products are of great quality and an inexpensive price. The ovens and ranges are durable as well as chic in design. They come in electric and gas. The elements and wiring doesn’t have to be replaced often because Hotpoint commits to reaching above the standards when choosing its components.

Being an older model, this stove is not equipped with modern features, however it cooks well, and bakes well. I just wish that it had a see through oven door, with a few more modern features. I will shop for a newer model.

Pretty good stove. It works good. It's just too big for my small apartment. This would be a great stove for gourmet cook or large family. I like it though. Just better off with larger family. Love the inside oven light.

It Easily operate your range stove without reaching over hot pots and pans. I can quickly clean up spills and remove crumbs from the subtop. What really good its feature a durable construction to help accommodate any size or type of cookware. Smooth surface makes it cleaning by hand easier. Strong and long lasting. Contains spill and remove for easy cleaning. Most important provides a convenient viewing area to check the progress of food when an element is on it. I just wish I could somehow get a new one because the whole part of my oven broke everything. Am only using the top. I was so upset the day it happen. They dropped it. I don't know how but I was out grocery shopping when this happened and they wear fixing the kitchen and whatnot but seriously it be a miracle if I could get a new one a blessing.

This gas range is over 20 years old and still going strong and if I had to replace it I would wanna replace it with the very same thing. I’ve only had one service call in all this time and it was nothing major and only cost me $125.

Well it's ok. It gets the job done but it's kinda out dated. It would be nice if it had a timer and clock with it. If you try and turn it on low flame it goes out and you think it's on low but gas is going through your house.

I think that it's a good brand...had zero problems...cooks well...cooks evenly...easy to clean...parts are simple to find to replace parts when needed...I just think that it is a really good stove and range all around...

I love my Hotpoint double wall oven. It preheats super quick, always provides evenly distributed heat for baking and broiling, and cools down rather quickly once oven is shut off. The only thing I do not like is there is only one oven light switch. It controls both top and bottom oven lights so it cannot be used to turn on only the top or bottom lights. Overall I am happy with this oven.

I am searching for a range and the things that I am most concerned about is the price, durability and customers service. I don’t a bells and whistles stove because I am a senior on disability and just need a reliable one at a very good price.

I like the range, it's a basic range. Does the work it's designed to do. The price is within range for a normal range. Mine does have self cleaning. And that is a big help. Otherwise there are no surprises.

I love the size of my oven. The temperatures are very accurate as well. The only thing I wish is for the broiler to be on top. It sits very low to the ground & with my back issues... But it too, is a nice size & I don't have to worry about 'cramming' any pans/cook sheets inside to fit.

My stove heats up really quickly. My food takes no time to cook. When we first received the stove is was used we had it over a year now. The pilot went out once after we replaced it we haven't had any problems. Yes I would recommend this brand to other customers because it's long lasting.

I have purchased this Hotpoint gas range by GE in 2009 and have not had any problem with it. It is a basic model, no self cleaning, however I found it easy to keep clean. The oven is apparently not as well insulated compared to more expensive models, and does become hot to the touch when used for a long period of time.

Smooth top range works fantastic! Only complaint is top left burner went out within 1st year. It was reported but never fixed. Adapted by using 3 burners instead of the 4 the stove is equipped with. Oven temperatures are even and all meals cook evenly and well.

I live in an apartment so I had no choice. It is electric and I am used to gas so I am still getting used to it. There is an oven light but it has an on and off switch. I prefer when the light comes on automatically if the oven door is opened. It seems nice enough. I just need to cook more to get used to electric.

Works great. The only dislike is one of the large burners is in the rear of stove top. The self clean works great. It's all digital control is very easy to use. Has a timer for cooking. And a oven timer that stops automatically.

I really don't like this stove is awful! It has stains from the eyes that I can't get out and the oven gets so hot that my granddaughter can burn her hand. I still use it because I can not afford another one!

My house was built in 2002 and it came with a simple 4 burners Hotpoint gas range, it is white. In 2016, I smell gas so I called the gas company and the guy said it ain't them, so it must be the range, so I bought another one from Hotpoint, very similar to the first one. Yesterday I asked the gas company to come and see where the gas leak is coming from, as every time I walked by the stove, I smell gas. He looked and checked and found it was the gas range, so he shut the gas off and suggested I buy a better one. He said there are more problems with this brand than others, and I should buy one which cost over $700. So be warned, I went thru two Hotpoints and they both leaked gas, I am now buying a Samsung. I would not recommend anyone buying Hotpoint, gas leak could kill or burn your house down.

My range is very old, 27 years, to be exact. I feel it has been a very good stove, the only replacement part I have ever needed is a heating element. That was about 2 years ago, and it was about $100. The stove is an older model, in white, it is a gas stove. It is the original stove put in our home. It does the job and I stand by the Hotpoint label.

Doesn’t heat evenly. Burners are loose. Oven heat fluctuates. Food cooked on burners burns on 1 side & is raw without constantly turning the pan. Would not buy it again.

I own a 30" freestanding white range purchased 14 years ago. Still works as new. I prefer white appliances as they are easiest to clean and maintain appearance best. My only issue is that the broil function is not continuous. My understanding is that this is now customary for safety reasons, however, in the past my stoves had continuous broil and there were no problems associated with this. Stove bakes well and maintains consistent oven temp.

Great gas stove. One thing as mentioned in other reviews if any burner is used, somehow heat is transferred to front of stove top, just above the knobs. Could be a hazard for children. As far as middle of the scale, it’s an ok stove and I've been very happy. Easy clean up too!

I love my oven range. I absolutely love cooking for my family and friends with it. I don't have any complaints. It's easy to use and even easier to clean up. It is fashion appropriate for my kitchen and I am able to get all my cooking done at the same time. I preheat oven or pans and then cook accordingly. My daughter has even been learning how to cook on the stove. It's very nice and great for everything. But if I could do anything I would incorporate an awesome skillet on top or maybe a double oven.

Love the range and the look of it... The design is wonderful and I enjoy the way it's built. It's easy to clean and works well in my kitchen. It holds its own by itself. It took me a little over an hour to install the range... I love the easy install. Just a simple hookup. But I would improve the cost and the colors of the range. I want to see more of today's colors. The colors need to be brighter and today's fashion. And I would love to see shades and tones that are unique. Work on the colors and I know it will sell more of them. But I would recommend this to everyone who need one.. Great job you guys. Keep it up. I would buy another one.

The oven has a large capacity, great for cooking turkey. The stove top has ample room for cooking many dishes at once. And the self cleaning oven makes for an easy cleanup. The range itself is quite easy to use. It features large, easy to read dials, and the digital screen and control panel are easy to both read and use. The oven preheats quickly, so cooking takes a little less time. But my particular range has an electric coil top. The problem with this is the coil burners pose a problem for cleanup, and they break easily. I am in need of a new range for this particular reason. So the company itself is great, but its older model ranges pose electrical issues.

I like that it is an electric range, with four burners, it is over 10 years old but still works well. It is a basic model, very easy to use and I love that it has a self cleaning feature. But I would make it with convection for even cooking, and have a shutoff timer for cooking - actually turning off the oven when the cook time is up. And I would like it to vent outside when the self cleaning feature is used because it usually sets off the smoke alarms. But it is a good range for how old it is.

I love my Hotpoint oven. It is really simple to use. All I do is clean the burner or oven if I need to before I use it, then set the desired heat, and cook to completion periodically changing the heat or position of my cookware. All of the buttons and knobs are clearly marked and easy to turn. The oven is accurate and heats quickly too. It is very responsive to heat changes and does not drive up my electric bill. However, the electric range is not very responsive to heat changes and isn't very sensitive the range of heat it's supposed to offer. The heat seems to be the same from settings 1-3, 4-6, 7 and above. Also, I wish there were more color options in my price range. But other than that, it’s a great product!

I love my Hotpoint range! I like that my range is made by a reliable brand name...Hotpoint. It's extremely easy to operate and that it's very easy to clean. It has a self-cleaning oven. It also cooks to perfection. I like the style and the color as well. When I was shopping for my Hotpoint, Lowe's had a display range that I fell in love with and was able to get the exact one. They had a display that matched my kitchen perfectly and they were able to accommodate me with the same color.

I like that it's an electric range and it’s, by far, the best range I have ever owned or used. It meets my needs and expectations. It is very easy to use too, I just plugged it in. The knobs are easily adjusted and the oven knobs are unmistakable from the range knobs. I also like that the oven is spacious. It doesn't take up excess space in my kitchen and the performance is excellent. It's over 10 years old and still works as new. The burners heat up quickly and also cool down quickly. When something drips in the oven, it cleans up very easily as well. I have recommended Hotpoint to many friends and family members.

The Hotpoint ovens are very basic and does its job without getting fancy. They provide the features that I need to cook my meals. But I don't like how bright white my stove is. Some colors would make it extraordinary. I'd still buy this because of the price and how it's made but they need to add some designs in their future builds.

My Hotpoint oven has been calibrated for all these years. Cooking our meals without burning or them turning out raw. The Hotpoint is so sturdy and reliable I only need to replace it when I want a new range. However, I hate cleaning the top of the stove. It should be made of non stick material so it can just be wiped off instead of having to use muscle power. Also, it would be nice to have a rotisserie attachment on it and more storage in the unit for more cooking utensils too. Most of the ranges are the same. The only set up is to remove the rack and position it on the rack needed for baking. The heat setting is always calibrated correctly as I can tell because I don't burn a lot of food. I can trust the setting. I will buy a Hotpoint every time. Keep up the good work.

Hotpoint is a good manufacture of efficient appliances at a reasonable cost. I have owned other electric ranges in the past but this model is the best I have ever owned. The oven range is simple to use, cooks fast and efficiently. It also heats up rapidly and has very good temperature control. But it is not easy to clean. I wish it had a self-cleaning mode where I could conveniently push a button and it would clean itself.

Hotpoint Ranges have separate oven and broiler controls but there is no way of doing both at the same time. It has an actual temperature reading but the oven also has alarms/beeps to alert you that it has reached the desirable temperature. Similarly, when the timer reaches the requested time, it will beep at you periodically until you at least open the door. Plus, the adjustable racks let you cook multiple things at one. Dial the temperature you want and hit the bake or broil button one more time to activate it. I wish there is a smart automatic shut off mechanism because I’m afraid that I will leave it on and then leave the house. Also, the insulating gasket wears and needs to be replaced.
