Please note to all asking me for advice on their Kenmore stove. I’m just a consumer like you, not an expert on my stove. Please contact Sears if you have questions, I’m sure they would be happy to help.

Hi, found your blog on a Google search. We just purchased this stove for $250 Canadian and had to replace the touch pad for $350. So all in all not a bad deal. I am wondering if you can answer a few questions. I found when I used it on convection I got some sweating on my countertops around the stove. Should we have put some heat resistant thing around it before putting it in next to the cabinets?

Also we did not get the part that goes at the back. We have a gap at the back of the stove between the stove and the counter. Is there a part for that?

Thanks

I hope someone answers about how to clean between the glass. My stove is less than a year old and I noticed a few days ago a drip in between the glass— : ( I didn’t realize that it wasn’t a solid piece of glass. I called repair and basically was told –TOO BAD. Nothing they could do unless I wanted to pay $$ to have a repair man come out to diagnosis and them “repair”.
Has anyone come across an easy way to get to the inside glasss?

I think this is a design flaw–I never had this problem with a stove I had for many many years. After paying all that money for a stove to have it look horrible. I am beside myself.

I also have the Kenmore ceramic top - this is my 2nd ceramic top and I do find cleaning it a bit of a drag but it is cleaner than the old ones!
My problem is the same - I have a drop BETWEEN the glass on the door - it drives me nuts! I can NOT find anyway to access it - any ideas? Mary

I’ve just been reading some more about Kenmore and thought I would pass on this warning! Please read about all the Kenmore ovens bursting into flames when the bottom element catches fire at an extreme heat! It could burn your house down. Read the comments at the above link. Don’t leave your oven alone to preheat.

I just bought a Kenmore elite at the Sears clearance center. Reg $1300 but this one was $695 with no tax! What a deal.

. Model C90-688025.

It is in brand new condition but did have a previous owner for a very short time. Only problem is, I don’t have the manual! Can’t seem to find one online. I am afraid to clean the top because I don’t want to scratch it! Can you tell me what the no-nos are? I assume I shouldn’t use steel wool soap pads, but don’t really know.

I have always had this problem on every stove I have ever had!
I thought it was becasue they were old, but my brand new stove has them now too.
What is the deal with this?

This is for Dotty, I am looking for the same answer. There is dust and other crud in between the two glass panels. I asked the repair man when he was out fixing something else and he said “don’t try to do that your self, it’s a big mess getting it back together” I usually do everything myself, so was looking on line for some tips about which screws to undo to get inside. Otherwise, a fabulous stove. I have the gas dual fuel type. Very nice.
