I have been considering Electrolux appliances, thinking that this is my last kitchen remodel and was going to go as "upscale" as I could. I read somewhere that their propane stove was manufactured to be used with propane, as opposed to other stove models that are manufactured for natural gas and retrofitted for propane.

Do any others have problems with them? I read consumer reports and they are not too badly rated.
I tried to reply to your PM but you do not have messaging turned on. Here is my reply:


Total junk, dont waste a penny on them. We bought the top of the line washer and steam dryer ($3500/pair), dishwasher ($1400) and refrigerator ($3800). We have consistent issues with all of them, starting soon after purchase. It has been a few years and we still have problems, I am getting ready to set up another service call on the fridge, washer and dryer.

The refrigerator has had trim pieces cracking, breaking and falling off the doors which they are not covering. The ice maker has croaked 3 times. The water dispenser has no real flow pressure even though our house has sufficient volume.

The washing machine has had issues with the detergent tray, issues with spinning out, etc. Complete rebuild.

The dryer has had issues with overall drying. This morning it was beeping wildly for no apparent reason during a steam cycle. Door hasnt fit right since day one.

And lastly the dishwasher. It has been completely rebuilt twice. Motor/drive and all...

There have been numerous updates done along the way.
