Customers have good things to say about the 30" Built-In Single Electric Wall Oven, particularly its fast heating speed and ease of use. The oven's design and appearance are also well-received. However, some customers have noted concerns about the sound and installation process.
Purchased this oven to replace a previous Whirlpool oven that came with our house when it was built new. Previous up failed after 12.5 years. Wanted to stay with Whirlpool because I've had a good experience with their products over the years. The oven has been in for two weeks now and we have used it quite a bit. Easy operation, heats/cooks much better and more consistent vs my previous oven. It looks great also just sitting there! I did my homework on ovens and read many of the reviews prior to this purchase. I saw folks complaining about the noise from the fan while the oven is running and after during the cooling period. I'll tell you this oven is much more quiet than my previous oven. So if I was ok with the noise before, this is an improvement. All of these ovens will have some kind of noise from the fan as that is the only way it can dissipate the heat. Installation wasn't difficult other than you need a second person to lift and slide in the oven. If you follow the directions to install this oven (to include removing the door during installation) you can't go wrong.

It's been over a month now since we had our oven installed. It cooks evenly and looks great! Plenty of options. You need to pay attention when preheating the oven. It automatically is set to "rapid preheat" which is only to be used with a single rack. If using multi rack you need to select the proper setting for multi rack preheat. Otherwise it can damage the racks and oven. The only thing that we didn't like was the aweful smell it produced when turned on for the first time. The installler didn't tell us this was going to happen and we had to open every window in the house for several hours to get the smell out. It took 7 to 10 uses before he smell minimizes. Therefore don't freak out! Just leave the house and ventilate. Overall the oven is solid, looks great and works as expected.

Wow... this oven does everything I need and more. I am not one to buy "gadgets and gismos" but this oven is very functional and has quite a few bells and whistles. It has a great size to the cooking area and will accommodate every cookie sheet and roaster I have. I highly recommend this oven.
