About 3 months ago, we had a major electrical fault: the neutral wire coming into the house burnt out or disconnected for some reason. Long story short: it started a fire, but the arcing punctured a hot water feed for the dishwasher and put out the fires started by the arcing. Refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, all the televisions in the house, and a lot of wiring burnt out. We now have all new Whirlpool appliances in the kitchen including a stove, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher. I haven't gotten to use the stove much because all my cooking equipment is still in the garage in boxes. The oven is rather nice; much better than my older electric stove. The stovetop heats up more quickly than the older models, but I don't know yet how long it takes to cool down. Seems usable anyway.
