Tenant says oven only putting out 250 deg heat

[Steve S.]

Any suggestions on how to most cost effectively address this issue on an electric stove that's maybe 10 years old, if that?

[Nicholas W.]

I might be in the minority but if it were me I would probably take a look at it and if it wasn't something obvious like a burnt out element I would just replace it. It's going to cost $100 to have a repair man take a look and there is a chance it can't be fixed cost effectively anyhow in which case the $100 is gone. If it can be fixed it will cost probably between $100 and $250 and you'll still have a 10 year old range. For $450 or so you can have a brand new one delivered and be done with it.
