Review on Blue Stars Ultra Durable W10181986 Range Oven Sensor Probe Replacement: Easy Installation, Exact Fit for Whirlpool Maytag Kenmore Ranges - Replaces WPW10181986 8273902 W10131826 by Jeffrey Gallagher

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Worked well for a while but never quite right!

Instead of testing my original sensor at this price point and the possibility that my old one wouldn't work, I just took this one for testing. behind and under the stove - YUK! It makes me feel a lot healthier! :-) Less good but still good: the oven seems to take a long time to reach the temperature (25 minutes to heat up to 350) and I had to calibrate my oven to "+30" to be exact ( with an oven thermometer). ). It's not the probe's fault as the gas stays on until it reaches temperature - it just seems to be taking longer than I ever expected. However, I was told this was normal, so I guess I never knew how long it was before! 2/2021 (2-year update): Rating changed to 1 star. The oven gave errors in the warmer months and rarely reached actual temperature. unstable at best, especially at higher temperatures.
