# Why an Asko Part Sometimes Takes Weeks, and When It Does Not

There are two Asko parts stories and they belong to different appliances in the same kitchen.

## The ordinary half

Dishwashers, washers and dryers are current US products. Twelve dishwashers, eight washers and twelve dryers are listed for sale here, they are supported here, and the components that actually fail on them — door seals, pump filters, shock absorbers, heaters, inlet valves, drain pumps — behave like any other appliance part.

If your complaint is on one of those three machines, this article mostly does not apply to you.

## The half that travels

Ovens, hobs, hoods, ranges, microwaves and refrigeration are not in the US catalog at all. Asko lists zero ovens, zero hobs and zero hoods for sale here, and exactly one refrigeration product — a wine cabinet.

That equipment is in South Florida kitchens anyway, through earlier distribution and through kitchens specified around European appliances. It is good equipment and it is worth keeping. Its parts come from a European channel.

## What that changes, and what it does not

**It changes the wait.** A part that would be next-day on a US-market machine may be several weeks on this one, and that is a real thing to plan a kitchen around.

**It does not change the labor.** The work of fitting an element is the work of fitting an element. Charging more for it because the part came further would be charging twice for one fact.

On this site the channel shows up in exactly one published figure — the control board, from $285 — and nowhere else. That is deliberate, and it is written down in our pricing notes so nobody has to take it on trust.

## Why we say it at the diagnostic

Because the timing is frequently half the decision. A three-week wait on a wall oven in a household of two is an inconvenience; the same wait before a holiday, or in a rental turnaround, is a different answer entirely. You cannot weigh that after agreeing to a repair.

So the diagnostic ends with three things: what the part is, what it costs, and when it can realistically be here. If the honest answer to the third is that the part no longer has a route, we say that too, and you have paid for a measured answer rather than for a component that was never coming.

## What you can do at the first call

Photograph the model and serial plate. On the out-of-catalog machines, establishing exactly which variant you have is a real part of the delay, and it can happen before anybody drives over.
