NFT: How long does it take for your oven to hit 400 degrees?

and my guess is 12 to 15 minutes.

...

guess mine takes somewhere around 10 minutes give or take

This is a relatively easy and cheap fix. Part should be about $75.

I'd say about 10-15 minutes or so , 20 maximum

The reality is that it takes a lot longer than it should.

Damn auto correct.

brands like Viking, Wolf, Miele, Jenn-Air....all have pretty horrific reviews.

In an apt without a hood, Blue Star is probably overkill.

Also not sure about a brand that also makes your TV and washing machine.

Any suggestions? Any appliance stores you recommend?

1) The larger the oven, the longer it takes.

2) Higher end models with concealed heating elements take longer to heat.

3) Many built-in wall models have fans that evacuate the hot air from around the oven box to keep cabinetry from getting hot. This cools the oven box some, so it takes longer to heat.

My old freestanding oven took probably 10-12 minutes to preheat. My newer built-in oven with all the above features takes at least 20 minutes.

And in reality it takes longer. I’ve found that if you check the oven temperature a few minutes after the oven says it’s done preheating, the oven temperature has dropped 25-30 degrees, I think the deal is that the oven box hasn’t gotten hot enough, and when the elements shut down it absorbs a lot of the air heat in the oven. So I compensate for this by preheating 25-50 degrees hotter, then turning the oven down when the food goes in.

horrific reviews on the best ovens made? because of cost? - because they are expensive.

If you like something with quality, but not the Viking level, look into Dacor.
