WB44K5018 General Electric Range/Stove/Oven Bake Element

Range/Stove/Oven Bake Element

GE products encompass Hotpoint, General Electric, and Sears-Kenmore. The Bake Element, an OEM part for GE ovens, is essential for baking. Positioned at the bottom of the oven cavity, it heats up to red hot when electricity flows through it, achieving the desired baking temperature. This component is vital for maintaining consistent and even heat, ensuring your oven performs effectively.

The Bake Element can fail due to normal wear and tear over time. Frequent use may cause it to burn out, preventing it from heating properly. Physical damage during cleaning or cooking can also lead to premature failure.

Signs of a failing Bake Element include:

- The oven not reaching the set temperature
- Uneven cooking or baking results
- No visible red glow from the element when the oven is on
- Visible damage such as blistering or cracks

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
