Jenn Air Complaint - Bad product - Stove Top

Stove Top - Complaint
Review by semloh on 2011-09-12
The knobs they use are inferior, cheap, and have a chronic flaw causing them to break. I have replaced the exhaust fan knob 5 times in 18 months.

Cheap knobs seem to be a common problem, probably because it's a quick way to make money. Since knobs are necessary to operate an appliance, you can either pay the outrageous price to replace them or just buy a new appliance. You lose either way while the company is laughing all the way to the bank.

Take the time to make sure the knobs your replacing them with are either metal or reinforced metal. You'd be surprised that many knobs will cross fit to other units. Take the knob you're trying to replace to a local appliance store and compare. When you find one that fits and is designed stronger, just order it.

Why should the OP have to do all that? Shouldn't appliances come with reliable knobs that at least last the short life of the appliance?
