KitchenAid Range

KitchenAid KERI201PBL

Model # KERI201PBL

The KERI201PBL is a KitchenAid range. No published specification for this model was recovered. Rather than fill the gap with a figure borrowed from a similar-looking number, this page says only what the sources actually carry. It appears on KitchenAid’s US product site in December 2005 and nowhere after that.

KitchenAid appends a production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KERI201PBL0, KERI201PBL2. A plate reading one of those is still a KERI201PBL; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. A range of that vintage is two decades or more into service, and the door seal, the oven sensing and the surface controls are long past as-new. The KERI201PBL is discontinued, so the parts question gets answered first and the price second.

FAQ

KitchenAid KERI201PBL FAQ

KitchenAid gives the location for its ranges as inside the oven's door, and that is where the KERI201PBL plate sits. It is an adhesive label, typically silver on major appliances, carrying the model number and the serial number together. Read the whole KERI201PBL string off the label rather than from memory, because it sits in a family of very similar numbers.

Production of the KERI201PBL ended some time ago. That does not rule out a repair - the wear items are largely shared across a generation - but it does mean the parts question on a KERI201PBL is settled before any figure is put on the work.

On most builds it can, but it is heavy and the hinges are under spring tension. With the range switched off at its supply and the oven cold, the hinge locks on a KERI201PBL are engaged before the door is lifted. If the door of a KERI201PBL does not release easily, it is better left to a technician.
