Why sad? Isn't working well?

Is this brand ok for cooktop?[/quote]I have not tried their cooktop. But I use their washing machine and dryer. I like it. I have used several in the last 20 years. But I must say the old ones last longer. The recent ones broke down faster and more easily. These days Electrolux appliances are mainly OEM by Chinese white good manufacturers like Midea. Not sure if they still have the Swedish made models. most brands now have their appliance made in China, if not all, at least the lower end models. When I chose my appliances, I picked those made in Europe whenever possible. My Brandt oven and microwave are made in Europe. But cooker hood made in China. European cooker hood have lower suction power. Only China made ones have higher suction power catering to the different cooking style.

Is this brand ok for cooktop?[/quote]I don't know, but it's a reputable brand in general. It must have seemed OK to you if you bought it! Anyway, cooktops are fairly simple technology, so they can't differ too much (that's my opinion). If it makes you feel better, here are links to a couple of reviews. They probably aren't the same model, but it's the same brand!

Kitchen all done and this is how the Brandt microwave and oven and the Sugawa hob looked all installed


http://i68.tinypic.com/8xvgbb.jpg\">
http://i68.tinypic.com/2ee9dsp.jpg\">

Incidentally, cooker hood is a slimline Brandt. So ended up with all Brandt appliances.

The Sugawa hob is great. We try to use the induction most time as it heats up real fast and great for boiling boil etc. only when we use some older pans that are non induction like my old scanpan that we use the ceramic. And when not cooking, we use the extra space on the hob as additional work space. πŸ•Ί

The microwave is not high. Just around eye level. Oven below. Not as low as when under the hob. So still ok. Large drawer below is great for storing pots and pans.

Oh and we got a new wine fridge too from the mega discount store at United square that pirated recommended. All appliances fitted in well, and with some remodeling, kitchen is spacious.

I bought a Mayer one a few years back and it recently spoilt so i’m thinking of changing!

max bond is a type of hi-temp epoxy glue. Should be able to find at home fix or self-fix or hardware stores. If u can't find max bond, better check if the glue is non-flammable, how many kilos it can hold, whether it'll start to liquify again when it hits 250-300 oC, as you have a permanent oven below.


probably need to tape masking/duct tape vertically down from top of microwave to your oven below to ensure it doesn't slide off after sticking... hammer metal strip gently from end to end with hammer head wrapped in thick rag.

Sounds like expert advice - thanks!

My own advice: avoid Electrolux πŸ˜‚

These days no more lux for this brand already

elder boy uses epoxy glue.


says will need to secure the metal strips onto the glass door to hold the position after applying the epoxy glue, need to wait for a few hours.
Yup. And that's the part that I'm not looking forward to πŸ˜“

OK - tks.
Never used this before, though. Should be safe (near food) and heat/steam proof, right?

This is industrial grade glue

To give you an idea : those beautiful glass door with wooden panel -- glued together by max bond. It can't be detached except by breaking the glass or wood.


I recently broke a counter top piece of glass which sits on top of a wooden ledge. 3 pieces broke off from the almost 2m long glass. Elder boy helped to glue the broken pieces together along the thickness and we put the glued piece back onto the ledge. He claimed the glue can hold, no problem.

I will ask him what glue he used when he is back home tonight.[/quote]Thanks…
