Same with ovens. Stopped heating? Check the heating coil either at the back, top, or bottom of the oven.
You won't even need to pull the oven out, chances are you can unscrew it right there from within.
£20 replacement coil for 10 minutes of work, or pay for
a whole new oven?
(The retailer assured us over the phone that they could not repair it, but had great discounts on new ovens...)
- hnaccount_rng 1y agoBut in order for an unskilled (no value judgement intended) person to fix that, this means having the technician run out to their house and find out whether that's the case. That's an hour of work, at least. What does a new oven retail for? Add to that the expectation value of "need to come back because it's not the first thing I tried" and that replacement oven with fresh warranty starts looking even cheaper
