Review on WHITFIELD Profile H5886 12046300 PH CW1 by Kevin Bucher

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Serves its purpose but is very noisy.

Media could not be loaded. Our OEM auger motor failed and for a simple plug and play setup it's great. I made it myself in about 15 minutes and it took so long because I didn't pull the oven out for easier access to the back wall. works perfectly again and warms up our room wonderfully. However, when the heat output and fan are set to 3/5 on our Whitfield, the auger motor spins every 4 seconds and it's noisy. It's not so bad when the TV is on, but even that doesn't drown it out. I hear it in the living room, I hear it in the kitchen, we might as well hear it upstairs. So while my stove is working great, and I'm grateful for that, I'm still debating if the hum will eventually settle into the background noise as usual, or if it's like water dripping every 4 seconds is racking my nerves.

Pros
  • 3/8" Ø 1" long shank - Flat shank rim for collar mount
Cons
  • A newer model could have been selected
