The oven was next... the press button pad has failed twice... the rep said "looks like a little liquid got inside" to which I replied "huh, water in the kitchen. How could that have happened (in a really sarcastic tone)" - the part was under warranty, the labor isn't covered - GE charges by the job not the hour: Cost $240 per visit. Microwave: Vent collects dust and grease, then requires disassembly to clean. Stove - if you need high heat choose something else.

In hind sight, I should have gone with a Viking stove/oven, maybe stuck with the GE fridge but should have gotten a top/bottom instead of side by side.
Ugh...!! Sounds like a really bad experience. Sorry to hear that. We currently have GE stove and microwave with no problems. We DID replace the GE dishwasher, which was INCREDIBLY loud, with a Bosch.

You're right about Miele. They are the BMW of appliances.
