+ Two good-sized ovens.
Lower oven lights automatically.

- No light in top oven.
Control knobs too easy to 'nudge' on accidentally - they can be turned accidentally while the cooker's being wiped clean (my previous cooker's controls needed a 'push and turn' to turn on the gas and, if the knob was released before ignition, the gas cut out).
Flame in top oven tends to cut out during pre-heating, but the gas doesn't cut out and you only realise when you open the door to put in the food that the oven's cold and you can smell gas!

Janet, Nottingham

Score 7.0/10

+ So far so good. Two ovens wnich are easy to control, but I have yet to use the automatic timer - automatic timers on gas cookers are notoriously unreliable!

- Grill pan handle which has to be removed whilst grilling. Removing and replacing the handle is fiddly. Large pan supports which are bulky and difficult to fit into the sink for cleaning.

+ Love the double oven plus its very easy to keep clean..

- The grill takes a whilet to light which can be annoying plus you should have the small gas rings at the front instead of the back..

Ann-Marie, East Yorkshire , “Mother of two children”

Score 9.0/10

+ Very clean lines. Simple to use. Looks fantastic adn fits in with most decors. You can get it in a range of colours. Overall, not bad for the money.

- When lighting the small top oven, you can't tell if it's lit or not. Many of times i have pressed the ignighter switch for a few seconds, after turning the gas on, only to find that the dam thing hasn't lit, and the kitchen then stinks of gas! Something should be done to rectify this, I.e doing the same as the larger oven, having an automatic ignighter switch, or making the ignighter flame more visable for people to see weather the flame has lit or not.

+ Excellent performance. Very well finished off. Fantastic value for money

- Knobs on top can get in the way a bit. Gap around inside edge of lid can let bits through.

Margaret, Oxford UK , “Very arthritic pensioner.”

Score 6.0/10

+ Looks nice. Clean tidy appearance. I like the various sizes of rings on the hob. I like the smaller top oven- very uesful for the single person, using less gas to cook smaller quantities - I hope anyway. If a hob ring is left on inadvertantly, closing the glass lid shuts off the gas - a good safety feature.

- Don't like the grill pan handle - very fiddly to attach, especially for someone who has very arthritic hands - there are a great many of us in this posiion too. Can't change the lower oven shelf positions as the very wide handle means the door cannot open wide enough to permit this. Hadn't anticipated this prior to buying the cooker. The grill takes ages to heat sufficiently to toast a slice of bread - not impressed with this function so far.

- You need to be careful using the top oven. It seems to get too hot and burns things if they are not carefully watched

+ Both ovens are very efficient.

- From time to time one or two burners are difficult to light, odd occasional fault. Grill tray/grid is a bit thin and seems weak/flimsy.
