What's the best brand of gas range in the Philippines?

[bintoy]

Mys wifey wants a free standing gas range and I tried scouting for one and here are my short list....

a) Electrolux EKM6645X
b) Ariston CX61SN1
c) Elba T61x631F
d) Whirlpool ACM 631 1x
e) La Germania FS603121

They all belong to the same price range 30,000+, but my concern is durability, after service, parts, etc..

By the way, I was told that La Germania products here in the Philippines are not of the same quality with those purchased out of the country. A visual comparison among the above list would show that indeed the quality of the above model of La Germania is not good....

But then again, most of the other brands are not quite known....please help....

Mas malimit, nagiging pang-display lang ang mga iyan dito sa Pinas... May hood pang kasama...

Bili na lang siguro ng double gas burner...

Its funny I can relate to this! My first xmas gift to my mom having my first job was an elba four burner with matching hood pa...Para daw matry nya magbake, roast, etc...its been 5 to 6 years now and mas marami pa yung daliri ko in one hand compared sa number ng times na ginamit nya yung oven

la germania. yung isang range namin buhay pa hanggang ngayon. sineservisan pa nga yun kahit ang layu-layo ng bahay namin.

I grew white hairs with my White Westinghouse/Electrolux washing machine which kept breaking down in its first two years. In fairness, they still did repairs under warranty even if the warranty has lapsed because of the troubled history of my unit.

We're using La Germania gas ranges at home. Can't go wrong with that it seems. "For you mama mia, the best..." :D

My in-laws use Elba and it's working fine just as well although it's only a couple of years old.

Ariston is also distributed by the same owners of G.E. With my after sales service experience with a GE aircon in Pampanga, it was really bad (can't say about Metro Manila service though).

Elba yung sa amin, yung may 3 burner at isang electric sa ibabaw then electric oven.. mag 6 yrs na ok naman..

We have Elba, 90 cm full stainless. Matibay.
But As CVT said, pang decoration lang.

Madalas yung heavy duty stove sa dirty kitchen ang laging gamit.

Quaintly Pinoy. Ganyan din in-laws ko nung bago yung Elba nila, sa lumang tabletop stove na La Germania pa rin nagluluto. Buti nalang now, ginagamit na rin.

Another friend of mine, in his condo panay high end na kitchen finishings (Sub Zero, etc.) pero hindi rin ginagamit halos. Parati kumakain sa labas since single and mag isa lang siya. :D

Bro, just go with either La Germania or Elba. At home i have a La Germania built in set and i have no complaints whatsoever with it. I was in your situation about a year ago and was really considering getting an Ariston set. However, upon further research, i found out that their service and parts availability isn't so good. La Germania, tried and tested and pretty good service.

Just make sure that you get the Italian made series na La Germania. Meron mga local na lower price/quality. Yun ata yung mga printed on lang yung logo. you can call them up to inquire (don't trust the sales reps sa mga appliance stores, wala silang alam). Better if you get the ones with the cast iron accessories.

The best is the one with electric ignition so there's no need for matches to light the flame.

techno gas, la germania

[renzo_d10]

La Germania din samin. Ilang taon na buhay pa rin.

[lowslowbenz]

Sabi ni mama ........ La Germania!

maraming salamat sa nga nag-reply....my wife posted a similar query in a girly forum asking help to choose a brand new gas range but walang nag-comment....buti pa dito....he he he
My wife and I are now down to choosing between Elba and La Germania (the Italian series) .... but the price of Elba (with the electric convection oven feature) is around 33,000.00++ vs. the price of La Germania (electric convection oven) is around 54,000++...

The cheapest La Germnia (Italian Series) is around 36,000++, but it is the conventional gas oven type......

This would be our first gas range oven and it's a huge investment, and my budget is only for around 30,000++++ range, should I go for Elba (the electric convection oven) or the La Germania (conventional gas oven type)???

For those of you who owned Elba (the brand that I'm not acquainted but I leaning towards it due to its features and cost), what problems have you encountered so far? Major ba and costly?

[_Qwerty_]

yung sa elba.. medyo cheap yung mga burner cover nya.. pero napapalitan naman daw yun.. over time eh parang numinipis.. yung oven ok naman.. sabi nung mga napagtanungan ko dati.. mas ok yung electric oven compare don sa gas oven type.. mas nacocontrol yung heat don sa electric type.. aalagaan mo lang nang linis tatagal naman..

Tigasin talaga ang mga posters dito... Tiga-saing, tiga-laba, tiga-linis, etc....

[gongrhey]

Natawa ko dun sa tigasin, maki-join na rin.
Nung namimili kami ni misis ng gas range, La Germania at Elba lang ang pinagpipilian namin. Gusto ko yung Elba dahil sa design nya pero nanalo si misis La Germania kinuha namin. So far 4 yrs na wala pang nagiging problema, matibay talaga dahil gamit din ng mother ko more than 10 yrs na.

PM me your Contact no. I know the owner of La Germania. I can get you discount. We can get it direct from their head office.

true na numinipis yung burner covers ng elba (made of brass kasi) pero available naman siya sa service center nila. actually you can buy the same size burner covers sa sidewalk vendor sa raon. not exactly the same but they will fit.

my mom has an elba that is more than 15 years old, it still works. napalitan na burner covers once. the electric igniters don't work anymore, needs service but heck gas lighters are too cheap anyway. it has a gas oven, used only maybe 3x in its entire 15 years.

my wife also has an elba. na-Ondoy na yun, and it still works. it has an electric oven. we prefer the electric oven since there is no chance of having a gas explosion. one of the igniters stopped working after ondoy. oven got used a lot before when my wife was leaqrning to bake, even after ondoy. the unit now is in our old house as we got a built-in range and oven in our new house.

la germania that's a bloody piece of gas range
