Interesting that there weren't any responses on Ning to this inquiry. Recently there were 26 posts on Gringos in David Yahoo Groups regarding gas stoves/ovens.

I don't think that post was as specific as yours though. You asked for a particular mfg in Ecuador. Maybe that's the difference?
I take it you are having a problem and are looking to see if anyone else has this problem with this mfg. right?
I reside in Boquete and have purchased appliances in Boquete at La Reyna and in David at Panafoto. Panafoto applies a $40 surcharge for warranty service calls in Boquete where as La Reyna does not.
I want to upgrade to a gas stove/oven with a broiler AKA "grill" and the only manufacturer that La Reyna in Boquete currently stocks is Indurama which is manufactured in Ecuador which I have zero familiarity with.
Please let me know if you've got any information to contribute to my purchase selection.

I understand where your are coming from Good Morning. Sorry I can't help with your purchase at La Reyna since I am not familiar the name at all but glad the other forums helped.
Perhaps because I bought many major appliances from Panafoto and have given them alot of business, I did have two warranty service repairs and did not pay anything. It also could be with the brand? I am not sure.
If you don't know Dinesh, the store manager, I would be glad to contact /refer him to you. He has been a pleasure to work with. That has been my experience there.
Please contact me off forum if you think you may be interested in Panafoto.
Val, Thanks, and yes, I've purchased appliances from Dinesh, he's great. I've had perfect luck with appliances from both Panafoto and La Renya so statistically I'm due for problem which is why I'd prefer to purchase in Boquete. I'll probably purchase at Panafoto due to their better selection.
