Whirlpool Ranges & Ovens Reviews

Bought a Whirlpool oven and on first use got a E1F1 error code. Now can’t even use it without having to reset error code. Would not recommend buying anything whirlpool if can’t even use it one time without error codes.

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.

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. Having three parts replaced on a brand new range. Not confident repair can fix such uneven cooking. And this was an expensive piece of junk.

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.

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 bought a Whirlpool Stove, with a glass top. After about a year the glass top now has small cracks in the glass top. This is my 3rd oven with a glass top and have never had any issues like this, and I'm disappointed. I have the 2 oven options, which I love. I use the smaller oven all the time.

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.

Very disappointed. The oven browns on the outside and leaves food undone on the inside. This thing is a piece of junk. I bake a lot, and trust me, I've never had problems with my old stove like this one. DO NOT PURCHASE.

My electric range is only 7 years old. First the oven element caught fire, then was fixed by Appliance Hospital. A month later the control panel stopped working. Seems reasonable to have an appliance last at least 10 years.

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.

I purchased a new Whirlpool wall oven wos51ec0hs02 and the oven lasted 14 months. The display/control panel could not be reset. The technician came, looked at it and pronounced the board dead. I needed a new display unit. Whirlpool would not honor a replacement and the cost of a board $ 850 plus shipping and a $300 technician fee. An oven lasting only a year. I was not happy. I was not willing to pay more than half the price for a control panel that whirpool knew had a problem. I am still waiting on whirlpool for a replacement. The oven is sitting in a corner of my kitchen. **

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?

Beware!!!! I have a new range with a new element design, that turns off when it gets too hot, to prevent grease fires. (It's a safety feature.) I have been cooking for 46 years and have never had a fire, nor do I need to be babysat by a stove! AND, 1 of the elements hasn't worked from the first day it arrived. This isn't a problem of the stovetop, it's the elements itself. AND, the oven stopped working within 2 weeks. I'm already waiting for a repairman. Unfortunately, I rent and this piece of poop was what arrived after my other old one broke down. Lucky me.

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.

Wow! I thought we had problems with Whirlpool until I read all these reviews. We purchased a home in 2015 with all new Whirlpool appliances. Our refrigerator failed after 3 years, our dishwasher failed after 9 years, and our glass top stove/oven unit has been problematic from the beginning. One of my 4 burners has an issue of not heating with anything other than high. I NEVER leave anything cooking on the stove. When I am able to get the burner to cook on a lower setting, it changes heat to high on its own. My sister-in-law has the same unit and she is experiencing the same problem. She absolutely hates the stove; I live with it for now. Note the picture. The burner is set to low and water is boiling away. I set my watch to remind me to turn off the burner so the water will not boil away. That doesn't work on everything I cook though. Buyer beware. I hope you read all these reviews.

We ordered a new Whirlpool free-standing range because our Whirlpool range of 22 years was having some minor issues. We thought about repairing our old one and should've just figured it out. The new Whirlpool was delivered in May of 2024, the front left burner started getting too hot and one of the screws from the bracket on the element started falling out almost immediately. We just put up with the issue until our oven completely stopped working after 10 months of ownership. It took Whirlpool several days to get someone out and they just said they needed to order parts. A week and a half after the service call, I still don't have a working oven, additional functions have now stopped working, and I can't get the appliance repair company (they have bad reviews online) to call me back. I had to sit on hold for over 25 minutes over two different calls for Whirlpool to get in touch with the repair company, at which point I'm told the part isn't scheduled to ship for FIVE more days.

I have never had problems with older Whirlpool products. We bought a Whirlpool 30” 5.1 cubic foot Black Range model WFG320M0MB. Worst appliance I ever bought! Oven works great, stove top sucks! Burners are way too overpowering. I will have to have a technician come out to hopefully fix it. This is a brand new appliance! Unacceptable! I’ll think twice about buying Whirlpool again!

The oven stopped working after a year, the dishwasher door broke less than a year. Whirlpool is not interested in making anything of quality. Don’t buy their products, may need to spend more for something else, but it’s probably worth it.

We purchased the Whirlpool double gas oven gold series in 2019. We were very excited about a high end appliance. After one year the top oven stopped working, but luckily we were still under warranty. This month at 5.5 years old the bottom oven has quit working. It's very disappointing and fixing it shouldn't cost almost as much as a new oven. Also if you have to call customer care be prepared to have your call dropped or be on hold for 40 minutes.

Bought a brand new range direct ship from Whirlpool. Everything was perfect until we wanted to use the oven. Received the range in mid-November and have had two service visits and they can't get the part to repair our brand-new range. Do not buy from Whirlpool.... three major holidays later our range still isn't repaired. Customer service doesn't care.
