+ On the whole I like it very much, particularly the lights that remain on until the hot plates are cool

- The inability to adequately heat things like dishes and plates in the top oven, i.e. you can't switch it on independently without having the main oven on, neither can you cook anything in the top oven (except for grilling)

Pauline, London

Score 8.0/10

+ The cooker is compact, therefore ideal for the smaller kitchen. It looks nice, and, so far, (having used it for only one month) it performs well enough.

- The oven could be a little higher - perhaps if the design had incorporated a drawer for utensils at ground level - an elderly person, or somebody who has difficulty bending, may find the oven too low.

Separate lights for each ring being hot
Oven element NOT in the yop of the oven unlike some cheaper cookers..........where it's a ridiculous place to put the element to heat an oven

- None so far

Stevie, Glasgow , “Family cook”

Score 9.0/10

+ Easy to use, easy to keep clean. Next to impossible to leave it on by mistake - the oven light is on and the fan is going when it's active; the grill doesn't work if the door is closed; the rings light up very fast and the cooldown indicators are very obvious.

- Grillpan has only one position. Noted elsewhere, you can turn the dials on the front by brushing against them. Not enough bad points to outweigh the good.
