Yes, I have seen a few comments about issues with Wolf ovens and that chipping of the coating. If you have an incentive to buy all Wolf, though, that's definitely a factor to calculate into the risk you are willing to take. They should stand behind some sort of warranty. You might try searching for more recent reviews within the past year or call a Wolf rep to see if the problem has been corrected. Be aware that even though your GE gave you good service, a lot of these historic brands are changing manufacturing practices to save money and may not produce the quality they once did. I'm not saying that's the case with GE, just that it is happening to a number of brands so is something to be aware of that you should research current reviews on any brand you buy.

There’s no reason to buy all appliances from one manufacturer. Manufacturers have strong points and weak points. Wolf is not the only high end appliance maker. And, yes, they’ve had problems with the blue enamel coating chipping. The single circle burners on the Wolf do not heat evenly, which is why we chose a Thermador rangetop. Thermador has star burners. The interior parts of the stars gets much closer to the center of a pot or pan, than the circular burners of the Wolf. Don’t forget, you’re also going to need a vent hood. Wolf hoods tend to be noisy.

When selecting double ovens, including a CSO (combi steam oven), we took the advice of this forum, and went with Miele. Superb appliances. Same for the dishwasher. Bosch makes a great dw, and is a favorite on this forum. Wolf now makes a dw, but it’s big, big bucks, and fairly new to market.

For a fridge, Sub Zero is the best choice...if you have the budget. The SZ fridge in my former home was still going strong after 25 years, when we sold that house. In the new (to us) house, we got another SZ...42” French Door. Love it...fits so much, keeps food fresh for a long time, is well organized, well lit, and easy to clean. I expect it to last a long time. It’s the one Wolf product I wouldn’t do without.

Are you talking about the oven of a range, or about a wall oven? If you are talking about a range, the Wolf oven blue lining chipping has not been reported on the all-gas range, just the dual-fuel range as far as I know. If you want a Wolf range, then get the all-gas version.

Just a comment on the Wolf hoods, do more research if you are going that direction. Different hoods within the same brand can give different results, and a lot of the issue of noise has to do with the blower cfm (some have variable cfm and are naturally quieter when on lower settings), where the blower is mounted (in the hood, inline, or exterior), and the ducting path (more corners and turns equals greater noise). Baffle architecture also plays a role in noise. For example, Wolf's architecture of the baffles in some of their hoods creates less noise with air rushing past the baffles than the architecture of most BlueStar hoods at the same cfm, and Vent-A-Hood brand has a spotty reputation for noise, with some users claiming they are the quietest on the market and quite a few other users saying Vent-a-Hood is too loud and they regret their purchase--so both ends of the spectrum on the same brand, and a lot of people are passionate about their own opinion!

Again, different hoods with different baffle designs within the same brand vary as to performance in regard to noise, but noise isn't the only factor in a decision. Wolf is one of the few manufacturers that produces a pro-style hood with excellent effluent capture area that also has an option for a 350 cfm blower which meets most jurisdictional requirements for installment of ducted venting without a Makeup Air (MUA) system, so that's a big plus if you live inside city limits and don't have a pre-existing MUA and are willing to install a blower at a lower cfm than average. Yes, if you're buying a pro range, venting needs to be at the top of your list of considerations, so thanks for pointing that out @darbuka. Also note that Wolf offers very powerful blowers as well, so when run on highest speeds, they are naturally going to be louder than a similar hood from another brand that may not offer as strong of a max cfm.

“and Vent-a-Hood has a spotty reputation for noise.”

When our Vent A Hood is on, it’s very quiet, even on high. We never have to raise our voices to have a conversation when sitting at the kitchen table, which is nearby.

Vent A Hood‘s system enables you to choose a lower CFM unit, yet get the result of higher CFMs.

When researching appliances for our renovated kitchen, which is now four years old, we listened to the hood in the Wolf showroom. The noise factor was most unimpressive. Two friends have Wolf hoods. Both are quite noisy. The baffles rattle.

I will say, to reduce the noise factor, we installed the blower in the Vent A Hood, in the attic.

Be aware that the Wolf gas range (all gas, not dual fuel) is NOT have self cleaning, which is a deal breaker for me. I've had the Wolf gas cooktop for 10 years or so, which I just love, except the knobs, which look like stainless steel, actually have a steel colored "skin" which is not durable.

I was only asking about the wall oven. We are going with other brands for the rest of the appliances.

Any update on the Wolf E series single oven?? Is it still chipping off or cracking? Not sure what to do. I’ve ordered but now leaning towards Gaggenau

I have a Wolf vent hood and can barely tell when it is on it is so quiet, and it extracts wonderfully, so your mileage may vary.
