I have been a long-time Whirlpool and KitchenAid customer, but this experience has changed my view of the brand. When our KitchenAid range developed serious issues, I contacted Whirlpool’s Executive Team and even wrote to the company president, hoping for support. Despite multiple emails and providing all requested information, I was ultimately refused any meaningful assistance. What was most disappointing was not only the product failure, but the lack of customer support. My concerns felt dismissed rather than addressed, and I was left frustrated and undervalued as a loyal customer. Based on this experience, I can no longer recommend Whirlpool or KitchenAid products.

I have always enjoyed my Whirlpool oven, except for the terrible warming drawer, made with flimsy material and guides which constantly get stuck or off rail, causing me to get down on hands and knees to get unstuck and retracked. This makes me UNSATISFIED! Don't tell me that the few dollars per product would ever be noticed by consumers BUT this problem is and someone in your company isn't paying attention to quality!

This company deserves nothing but 0 stars and bankruptcy. I am extremely disappointed with Whirlpool's products and customer service. I purchased a brand-new Whirlpool range, and within days it began failing to maintain temperature. The oven would randomly drop over 100 degrees while cooking, making it impossible to bake reliably.
Instead of replacing a brand-new defective appliance, Whirlpool insisted on repairing it. The required part was backordered, leaving my family without a dependable oven while I continued making phone calls and rearranging my schedule. Even after finally locating the part, Whirlpool could not guarantee they would honor my originally scheduled repair appointment, meaning I may have to miss additional time from work because of a problem that existed from the beginning.
A company that stands behind its products should not expect customers to accept repeated repairs on a brand-new appliance or bear the cost of lost wages due to service delays. This experience has completely changed my opinion of Whirlpool. I will not be purchasing another Whirlpool appliance, and I cannot recommend them to anyone.

In my 63 years on this Earth, I have never had such a bad appliance! Don't buy the Maytag/Whirlpool free standing range, 30". Not even a year old yet and it's already coming apart! I went to put cookies in the oven, the door wouldn't open all the way but I got the cookies in there. Check on the cookies and the glass part of the door starts to come off! See pictures! I would have given it a big fat ZERO!

My wife and I bought a brand new Whirlpool electric oven and range in Dec 2025 when we purchased our new home and had it delivered in mid January 2026. We were able to use the oven finally on June 9th. 6 months of constant repairs. Finally get oven working and as the repairman was packing up his stuff I tried a stove top burner (which had been working) and it basically shorted out... AGAIN. Now I'm on another 2 week wait list to get this fixed. We have a repairman here for the 6th time and this is truly crap from a company like Whirlpool. Every time my wife calls they say they need to send someone out. After 6 tries it would've cost them less money to just replaced this piece of junk.

I bought a Whirlpool and never have been happy. If I walk by it and barely brush the knobs it will turn them enough to lick the gas on. Don’t know how many times this has happened. Of course it’s been too long now for me to do anything about it but I just walked by and turned it on with my elbow so it made me think to write this.

I purchased a Whirlpool laundry set from Home Depot in February 2025. Within five months, the washing machine developed a significant technical failure. I reported the issue while the unit was still under the manufacturer’s warranty provided by Whirlpool Corporation, and a repair was performed. However, the machine continues to experience the exact same defect, indicating that the issue was not properly resolved and that the unit may be inherently defective. Despite multiple attempts to address this matter through Whirlpool’s customer service channels, including filing a prior complaint (Case #**), I have not received a permanent solution. I am left with a non-functional appliance.
This situation raises serious concerns regarding Whirlpool’s failure to uphold the implied warranty of merchantability. A product of this nature should be reliable and functional for a reasonable period of time. I strongly advise potential buyers to carefully consider alternative brands, as my experience reflects ongoing defects and a lack of effective resolution from Whirlpool’s service department. Based on my experience, I would not recommend purchasing appliances from Whirlpool Corporation and poor customer service.

I bought a KitchenAid stove (Whirlpool is the manufacturer) at Home Depot. Six months later, the gas regulator went out, causing my family to evacuate the house and call the gas company. I called Home Depot the next day, who told me to call Whirlpool. First, they sent out a repair guy who doesn’t know how to deal with gas. He says it’s possible we get a new stove. Then they send another person who does deal with gas and says we will not get a new stove. They will replace the part. I called the repair place again. They say the part is on back order. Nobody seems to care that this stove is a safety issue or that I have been without a stove for almost a month now.

Save your money and do not buy the AMANA 30-inch Gas Range. Worst stove ever designed. Poor workmanship as well as a fire hazard. The glass on the oven door gets very hot when baking as well as the sides of the stove, that may touch your cabinet.

The worse oven I have ever owned. Do not buy! Wall oven, electric, I complained bottom was peeling. Whirlpool told me it doesn’t affect the ovens functionality. I asked if it could be toxic, no response. They offered me a discount to buy a new oven!! Not even for free would I get another Whirlpool appliance. I even wrote to them on their board of review, got nowhere!

Recently ordered an electric range and had paid for the delivery/install. The guys showed up and after seeing had no tools realized the federally mandated anti-tip bracket couldn't be installed. When I asked them the guys spoke no English and couldn't read the first page of the manual that shows it as a danger leading to severe injury, possibly worse. They had to leave while I was holding for customer service and am still dealing with it. My parents' Whirlpool delivered a year ago is missing it as well and my Mom says it almost tipped a few months back, didn't know why. Sears had to pay out over $500 million for this exact problem 20 years ago. For you and your family's sake, please check under your range and contact your state's Attorney General as we were told to do.

I would rather cook open a campfire than use this unreliable garbage. It's either ice cold or the flames of hell with no in between, its favorite thing to do is act normal and then suddenly cause huge boilovers after being at a steady simmer. Just throw a pipe bomb in it, close the door and walk off.

We have had 2 Whirlpool ranges and neither one of them have had a correct oven temperature. When putting a thermometer in the oven it is off by 50 degrees or more. A tech come out and looked and said it was normal for that brand of stove. We called whirlpool back and was told to go by the temperature on the thermometer and if it is off by 50 degrees to turn it up by 50 degrees. Have never had a range that you had to adjust and guess at a temperature. Very low quality product and Customer service was 0 help. Will never buy any whirlpool products again!

I purchased a suite of Whirlpool appliances in 2021, directly from Whirlpool. They delivered, installed and removed the appliances being replaced. I cook mainly on top of the stove, do not bake, but do bake the occasional chicken at high temp, so I only recently learned that the Aqualift Self Cleaning method included DOES NOT WORK. I have to date been unsuccessful in reaching Whirlpool to discuss the matter, but have learned that there have been multiple class action lawsuits filed about this issue. I am joining those, but they are ongoing and not an immediate fix for the problem. In addition, Whirlpool is still selling the defective product. Getting a replacement range, despite Whirlpool's failure to disclose at the time of purchase (three years after two lawsuits were consolidated into one) seems quite daunting, so I am leaving negative reviews in all places that I am able to.

I have a Whirlpool gold series from 2015. I have replaced all the knobs several times bc they are cheap plastic crap that break easily. The oven has never heated food evenly for whatever reason it’s always done on one side of the tray and raw on the other side. Currently the stovetop burners at least two of them the igniters are clicking without lighting the burner. This will cost an arm and a leg to fix.

I have model WFGS5030RZ It does not ignite the oven properly and will say it is 160 degrees in the oven with the door open and the oven has only lit for 3 minutes. I have a service person some cause have only had the oven for 2 weeks. He is ordering a bunch of new parts for this new oven and will try that. But after reading on of the other reviews sound like this model is a pink elephant. Whirlpool has been NO help and only want to sell me an extended warranty for for something I have only had a couple of weeks.

NEVER BUY A WHIRLPOOL RANGE WITH STEAM CLEAN. It does NOT work. I was disgusted after the first steam clean. It loosened something that was not baked on. Other than that, the oven looked the same after steam cleaning. Also, it is impossible to get through to Whirlpool. You just get a bunch of automated messages that do NOT ever connect you to a person. Shame on them. What a terrible way to run a business! I would give it zero stars if I could.

I purchased the Whirlpool 5.8 Cu.Ft. Slide-in Gas Convection Range in February 2025 and so far the technician has been to my house 5 times to fix the same issue. The issue is the oven just stops igniting, there is no pattern to when and how often this will happen. They have replaced everything all the parts in this "Brand new oven" and in November when the technician came out he said there isn't anything else they could replace. However Whirlpool will not replace this range they keep saying a "Master Technician" must come out and deem it replaceable, however Whirlpool keeps sending the same technician. I think this is a ploy with Whirlpool and they just want to get past the 1 year date, so they can say it's older than a year so we can't help you. If you want a range that will work DO NOT PURCHASE A WHIRLPOOL!!! Now my only option is to hire an attorney.

WER9100S Whirlpool stove. This is a complete disaster of engineering. After two years, the electric digital control for the oven, timer, and clock falls downward. As it was out of warranty, I removed the burner controls, and unscrewed the cover for the front portion of the stove (the electric digital control is in the center of this cover). I could not believe that the control was held up with double-sided tape. No screws or connector of any type held in position; therefore, when cleaning and apply pressure, this control just sank down. This allows water, grease, etc, and prevents cleaning, and creates a hazard as the electrics are now not sealed and open to the hand. There is NO good way to seal and hold this control in place. Very poor design and engineering - simply put, this stove is a piece of shit. Whirlpool should be ashamed of this product.

This complaint against Whirlpool and against Flamingo Appliance Service, the Miami, Florida-based repair company that Whirlpool outsources to take care of the repair needs of Whirlpool appliance owners located in the South Florida area. My wife and I purchased our Whirlpool stove in the Fall of 2024 (Model: WFE535S0LS). We have owned and used numerous gas and electric stoves in over the last 31 years of being married and we have NEVER encountered a worse stove than the brand Whirlpool makes.
The Whirlpool stove we have is dangerous. As we reported to Whirlpool, the stove's left front burner heats hotter than the right side front burner. This overheating resulted in a kitchen fire that required our calling the Plantation (Florida) Fire Department for the first time in our lives. Luckily, we always keep an updated home fire extinguisher on hand in our home. We have NEVER had a kitchen fire in all our lives. The kitchen fire took place not long after we purchased the Whirlpool stove and were cooking a dish on that left front burner. The two tablespoons of cooking oil that I had in the wok literally burst into flames before my eyes and shot up, requiring us to replace some of our new cabinets. This was due to the front left burner heating up hotter than the front right one. We called the Plantation Fire Department to deal with the smoke and to make sure everything was safe.
We made an appointment with Flamingo Appliance and a service person arrived at our home on Monday morning, December 23, 2024. The technician came out at 11 am and examined the stove, claiming that the front burner operated properly. We told the technician that cannot be the case because both my wife and I have trouble with the front burner and now only use it to boil water as a safety measure. The technician refused to have me prove the difference in temperature by having two small pots of water boil at the same time. Instead, he relied on a gadget that looked like a no touch thermometer, We told him we had NEVER had a problem with a stove, till we purchased Whirlpool.
After much back and forth, the technician left the house to take a call -- he claimed he had to take it outside because "his cellphone power was low." When he returned from his van/truck he told me his company said that I was at fault for the fire, that there was nothing wrong with the stove, and that they would make no repairs, not even on the back panel. I am disgusted how Whirlpool and Flamingo Appliance Service would put the health, lives and property of its customers in jeopardy in order to save a few dollars.

Purchased a new Whirlpool oven/flat top range from Lowe's in first week in August 2025. AVOID LOWE'S and Whirlpool!! Oven went out first week in October 2025. Lowe's won't warranty it, sends us to Whirlpool. They said they'd send out a tech but failed to put us on the schedule (so they say). Finally came out the third week of October and said the master control needed to be replaced. Order part. Said it would be a week. And here we are the week of Thanksgiving and nothing. Last email said December 8th is the estimated date of repair. Lowe's just gives us the runaround. DO NOT PURCHASE Whirlpool, and especially DO NOT purchase from Lowe's.

When this range works, I love it. But, unfortunately it has constantly had issues. Currently, the Convection oven setting works but not great. It has a hard time getting up to temperature. The regular oven setting doesn't work at all. The bottom element isn't heating. The elements have been replaced and they shouldn't be out in less than a year. I don't feel like spending more money on a fairly new electric range.

Our Whirlpool oven/microwave combo came with our new house. After using it for 2 1/2 years, it stopped working, and the repairman told us it needed a new front panel to the tune of 700 dollars. We find it unacceptable that any appliance should break down so early in its life.

Our new Whirlpool Range is worthless. We haven't even made our first payment on it and we had to have a repairman come out. Uneven cooking. Temperature on both ovens fluctuates greatly.

Temperature calibration is WAY OFF even after servicing. Quality control stinks. Do they test these before they ship? The controls for the stove top are primitive on/off and are not proportioning controls. Apparently no one at Whirlpool ever tried cooking or baking on this “Gold Series” product. What a disappointing product.

I am rating my Whirlpool oven a 1 based on a) how well it functions, b) original purchase price, c) cost of repairs, d) reliability.
2. It was a mid-grade purchase, not cheap. So in 2025, it would cost $2400 to replace based on similar products.
3. Right after the warranty expired, so did the main control panel. It cost us $500 and we did the repair ourselves. We have now replaced it a second time. The components rust and I am sure it’s designed to fail after a certain amount of time. (Planned obsolescence)
4. One of the burners control knobs stays on when it’s in the off position, which is a fire hazard. We have to fiddle with it to find where off is.
5. The fan stays on for a long period after use.
6. Convection… not really. I don’t think the fan is strong enough.
7. If there’s a power outage the oven will not work for weeks, nor does the display, yet stove top works. Randomly, it will start working again until the next power outage.

Purchased a Whirlpool range 5 years ago and am already having to replace it. Within 48 hours of installation and on its first use the fuse blew for the interior light. Had that fixed and a few months later it blew again. Didn’t bother fixing it. The panels on the face have peeled off and now the control board has broken. It is the second most expensive part and between that purchase and labor it is less expensive to get an entirely new unit. This should not be the case after only 5 years of a well maintained appliance… My whirlpool dishwasher also has a slew of issues…. Do yourself a favor and avoid whirlpool.

Whirlpool does not supply care + cleaning manuals with their appliances any longer + I was not aware of this when I purchased; if one doesn't have a functioning desk top they're sadly out of luck per Whirlpool. VERY BAD POLICY. Is this company so cheap they cannot print up a simple manual to accompany each sold appliance? I have many Whirlpool appliances. Most with extended plans and can't obtain a simple care + cleaning manual.

I can’t speak from authority regarding other brands, but have to say I’ve been very disappointed with this oven. I had an older model with solid metal burners instead of coils, but finally (after 25 years) had to replace it because the heat control was no longer reliable -when trying to slow cook at low heat, it would either burn the bottom or all but shut off. Unfortunately, this new one started doing the same thing within a month or two after purchase. Turning the knobs and getting the desired heat level is about as reliable as spinning a roulette wheel. Also, it is made from cheap metal and rattles like I’m throwing drink cans into the recycling bin every time I put a pot on. Finally, the control panel looks simple but is very confusing and complicated to navigate.

We purchased the Whirlpool Electric Cooktop Model #WCC31430AB in July of 2024 to replace a GE electric cooktop that had worked great for around 20 years. We live on a Farm and raise most of our vegetables which we preserve every year using the pressure canning method. We had never had any problems with our GE electric cooktop which consistently maintained a high enough temperature to safely pressure can food. The new Whirlpool electric cooktop comes with burners that have a built in mechanism that causes the burner to shut off when a certain temperature is reached. This design is not only unacceptable but is dangerously unsafe when you are preserving food.
When I tried to contact Whirlpool all I got was a voice mail and was never able to talk to anyone to try to resolve this. I ended up having to buy a special burner that replaces the factory burners that will at least maintain high enough temperatures to maintain pressure long enough to safely preserve food. However this burner has drawbacks as well because it does not sit flat on your stove and causes issues with your canner working correctly. I would give this product 0 stars if that were an option. It does not meet our needs and is basically UNSAFE!

The Whirlpool Glass-Top Stove produces uneven heat making meal prep very challenging. The temperature is either too hot or too cool. Any adjustment to the control dial turns the burner heat off or sends the heat to the max amount. The above are not design issues. These stove-tops are designed to be "efficient" and "save energy". Is the American public at risk of running out of energy?

I purchased a Whirlpool gas oven in March 2024 and June 2025, the glass on the door came off. In my opinion, it’s faulty adhesive, there is no reason the glass should’ve ever came off the door. I called Whirlpool. Whirllpool says that there’s nothing that they can do, they push their extended warranty. And want me to pay for a serviceman to come out here to repair it. In my opinion, a stove should’ve lasted a lot longer than 15 months! Buyer beware. I will never purchase another Whirlpool product again. It’s a waste of time and money. The products are being made cheaper and cheaper and their life expectancy keeps getting shorter and the prices keep going up. They need to build a better quality product. I would be willing to pay a little more money for a better product than to keep wasting money on garbage.
