Debbie, Truro Family cook

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: induction hob is so responsive, saves time and money, food doesn't burn/stick to my suacepans any more. Looks great. Food cooks evenly, easy to keep clean.
Bad points:: Wouldn't fit into the slot the previous cooker came out of becuase of round head screws on the side of the hob, had to be lifted in and still scratched up my work tops terribly going in.

Mike, Millom Family cook

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: INDUCTION HOB
A feature-packed cooker
2 ovens
2 grills
versatile hob
controllable hob
As a cooker, highly recommendable.
Instruction manual available on-line - for those that moan about 'poor photocopies'
Bad points:: Delivered with loose screws - one in the back cover had fallen out completely and was lying in the bottom of the packaging. Fan cover in the back of the bottom oven had 4 loose screws holding it in place.
If you're used to silent cookers, this is a noisy cooker. It's not a bad noise but one you need to be aware of as it is normal operation. There are lots of fans as well: something like 2 for the bottom oven, one for the top, a hob-shield fan (to stop the hob electronics overheating from the top oven) and five fans in the hob too - as far as I can tell - one per hob and one for the power supply.

Oven control (temperature) indication could be improved. As for being difficult to read (other reviews) we have lights in our kitchen.

The issue with having to replace all your pans should have been pointed out by the shop before you purchased.

Main heating type	Conventional
Conventional ovens heat from the bottom so the top of the oven will be slightly hotter than the bottom. This is useful when you’re cooking lots of different dishes at a time. However, they do take a little longer than fan ovens to heat up. Convection (or fan) ovens circulate the air so that you get an even temperature throughout the oven. They are quicker to heat up which means they save on energy and time. Multifunction (convection or conventional) ovens give you the flexibility to use different methods of cooking. They usually have both fan and conventional settings as well as pizza settings that will only cook from the bottom, giving you a crispy pizza, or top-only cooking that is very useful for browning.
