Buying new oven

[tabbypurr]

there is and they are.

The grill won't turn on with the door open on either of mine.

The actual reality is that well designed electronic control will outlast mechanical controls on an oven.

That does not mean that there aren't some shit electronic and shit mechanical ones out there.

[dennis]

Go on then tell us which electronic parts are less reliable than the mechanical equivalent and why they must be?

[Dave Plowman (News)]

What sample size to you base this on? Or just one of those things your gut tells you?

[Dave Plowman (News)]

It has on mine. And is far nicer to use than a mechanical type.

Perhaps Mr Purr has mechanics on his boiler too?

You do sometimes get what you pay for.

[tabbypurr]

My career, so quite a large sample size.

Try sci.electronics.basics if you want to learn about it.

Odd, since the evidence is that properly designed electronic things are more reliable than mechanical.

Which is why we no longer use carburettors, distributors, cpntact breakers...and even carbon brushes in many motors.

[dennis]

You try it. You obviously don't know.

[tabbypurr]

some are, some aren't

no it isn't Yawn
