This guy let’s it all out of the bag. I’m sure the industry hates him! But, we love Ben, and appreciate him.
-
As an appliance tech myself this guy is speaking 100% facts great job
-
I used to work for a company that made circuit boards for fancy ovens and know first hand less is more. I've done it all from building them, soldering them, to final inspection before they leave to be installed. I'm telling you, DO NOT GET A BUNCH OF FEATURES. LESS IS MORE. Same with cars, we did those circuit boards too
-
Having found your channel is a like a giant sigh of relief - FINALLY, integrity, transparency, and truth!! Thank you from the bottom of my wallet and my heart for providing upfront honesty and actual expertise.
-
You know what I WANT and NEED is: a fully manual knob controlled stainless glass top with absolutely 0 computer boards in it. And I want it to cost less than $1500 and last 15 years minimal

This may be one of the most informative and wholesome channels on the entirety of Youtube.

We bought the Cafe Induction Double-Oven Range about 18 months ago, replacing a 10-year old Cafe gas range (model number shown in your segment). We love it! Not only has it worked flawlessly, it does have some cool, useful features - like preheating the oven from an app on your phone (takes care of cooled takeout pizza). And induction is kind of life-changing: Having no errant heat sweltering you while over the stove top makes cooking so much better / easier!

I am redoing my kitchen and your videos are very helpful. Hearing so many nightmares from friends regarding appliances especially refrigerators. I'm watching all your videos for refrigerators, ovens and dishwashers. Thank you for all this information.
-
That older stove reminds me of one my Aunt had. It was amazing and lasted forever. I wish they stil made them like that. I'd want one of those!
-
Absolutely agree that you should get separate induction stove tops and whatever oven you like. You can also get significantly more powerful burners that way too.
-
I’m so glad you got around to posting this!!! I haven’t found tons of information induction ranges! We have to get a 36” induction range and it’s hard to find reviews!
-
I would take that big white double oven range in a heartbeat!
-
Really enjoying your videos!! Entertaining and informative. Extremely helpful!!
-
Excellent review, as always you are unbiased. Thanks to you I purchased the right Refrigerator last year and right no problems, now I need a gas range so I came back to your channel again thanks a lot.
-
Thanks for the info. Very Helpful. My Jenn Air induction, convection stove is still going after 33 years. It was expensive at the time, but the cost comes out to around $75.00 per year used.
-
What a great channel - thanks for the insider insight and recommendations! (Note: Baking sofa will reduce or neutralize the acidity (grease lifting ability) of vinegar. Let the vinegar sit for a while - then add the baking soda for its mild abrasive quality when scrubbing.)
-
I've been following you for 2 years it's awesome to see how far you've come in quality and education with your videos. Ben, thank you so much, and I look forward to watching more of your content!
-
I had a Thermadore Stove in my old house. It pretty much sold the house! I truly miss it. Eventually I'll re-do my current kitchen, and put in another thermador. That stove was worth every last cent! An absolute joy to cook on.
-
Ben makes such quality content. Thanks for all your hard work and humor you put into these videos. Even though you don't like my favorite brand Samsung haha, literally every appliance I have is Samsung (refrigerator, gas range, microwave, dishwasher, and washer/dryer).
-
The advice on not using the self cleaning feature is really appreciated.
