Hotpoint RAS240*M***
Electric range
Will it fit?
Measure your space before you buy — this is the first question, before price or running cost.
Width, height, depth and electrical specs sourced from ENERGY STAR's certified cooking-appliance dataset, not a manufacturer manual — door-open clearance isn't published there, so leave extra room in front by habit.
Our verdict
This is a 23.8-inch-wide coil electric range from Hotpoint. It costs about $37 a year to run — about average for electric ranges, close to the middle of the pack. Coil cooktops use exposed electric coils — the least expensive of the three technologies ENERGY STAR certifies, and also the least efficient. This site only covers ENERGY STAR-certified electric and induction ranges — there's no federal efficiency certification program for gas cooking appliances or standalone wall ovens and microwaves, so we don't have certified data for those and can't include them here.

Cooking-top technology — the spec that decides how it cooks
Source: ENERGY STAR certified cooking-appliance dataset (cooking_top_technology field).
Induction
- Heats the pan directly with a magnetic field — fastest, most efficient
- Only works with magnetic (mostly cast-iron or stainless) cookware
- Cooktop stays cool to the touch around the pan
Radiant (glass-top)
- Heats an element under a ceramic-glass surface
- Works with any flat-bottomed cookware
- Slower to heat and less efficient than induction
CoilThis model
- Exposed electric coil elements
- Least expensive to buy
- Slowest and least efficient of the three
This model uses coil cooking-top technology. This site only covers ENERGY STAR-certified electric and induction ranges and cooktops — there's no federal efficiency certification program for gas cooking appliances, so we have no certified gas data to show, and none for standalone wall ovens or microwaves either.

Recalls
We don't make per-model recall claims — the CPSC's own recall records are almost never tagged with a specific model number, only a brand and product type. Search the federal recall database yourself for Hotpoint ranges before you buy or if something seems wrong with yours.
Search CPSC recalls →Documented litigation
We haven't found documented litigation for Hotpoint ranges in our research. That doesn't mean none exists — it means we haven't verified any yet.

Your repair rights — depends on your state
Several states now give you a legal right to request parts, tools, and documentation from the manufacturer to repair your own major appliance — but this is not a national right yet, and it's enforced by the state attorney general, not something you can sue over yourself.
- California, Colorado, Oregon, Minnesota — in force now (CA since 7/1/2024, CO since 1/1/2026, OR since 2025, MN since 7/1/2024).
- Connecticut — takes effect 7/1/2026.
- New York and Texas — appliances are explicitly excluded from those states' repair laws. A blanket "you have the right to repair" claim would be false there.
- Everywhere else — no appliance-specific repair-rights law found as of this writing.

Tell us what it's doing. Each page ranks the likely causes by real repair-video attention and prices the part that fixes it — for Hotpoint ranges specifically, not appliances in general.
Commonly reported failure points
These are the parts that turn up most often in Hotpoint range repair videos — 338 videos across 1 symptom page for this brand family. The percentage is a share of repair-video attention, not a failure rate: nobody publishes a real "% of owners who replace this" number for any appliance, and we don't invent one either. And it's brand-family and appliance-type level, not a read on your exact model — our parts catalogue and the repair-video corpus don't share model numbers, so a per-model claim here would be a guess dressed up as a fact.
- bake element 30.8% of repair-video attention
- surface element 25.2% of repair-video attention
- control board 17.2% of repair-video attention
- broil element 12.4% of repair-video attention
- thermal fuse 7.6% of repair-video attention
- temperature sensor 6.8% of repair-video attention

Frequently asked questions
How much energy does the Hotpoint RAS240*M*** use per year?
Its certified energy use is 195 kWh (kilowatt-hours — a measure of electricity used) per year. At the U.S. average electricity price, that's about $37 per year to run — see state-by-state figures below.
Is the Hotpoint RAS240*M*** ENERGY STAR certified?
Yes.
Is the Hotpoint RAS240*M*** cheap or expensive to run compared to similar electric ranges?
It about average for electric ranges — close to the middle of the pack (category median is $37/yr).
Is the Hotpoint RAS240*M*** gas or electric? Does this include the oven?
It's electric (coil cooktop) — this site only covers ENERGY STAR-certified electric and induction ranges, because that's the only cooking-appliance category with a federal efficiency certification program. There's no certified efficiency data for gas ranges/cooktops, standalone wall ovens, or microwaves, so we don't have pages for those. The certified kWh/yr figure above covers this range’s full electric operation, cooktop and oven together — ENERGY STAR doesn’t publish them separately.
Where can I buy the Hotpoint RAS240*M***?
See the price and buy section above — we show a real, dated price only when we have a UPC-verified retailer match; otherwise we link a direct model-number search rather than guess.
Sources. Efficiency and capacity ratings from DOE certification (CCMS) and ENERGY STAR certification data. Annual running cost is computed by Verified Appliance Data from published ratings and EIA energy prices — see our methodology. Dimensions, plug/electrical, warranty, manual links and price (where shown) come from manufacturer spec sheets, manuals, and — for price only — a UPC-verified Amazon match; every enrichment fact carries its own source and retrieval date. We publish no star ratings and take no payment for placement. "Not published" means the source doesn't disclose it — we never fill a spec with a guess.
