Stoves 600SIDLM Width: 600mm Gas Cooker Reviews

+ very good value and great cooking.

- none

+ Cooks efficiently, aesthetically nice, very easy to clean

- Gas supply to main oven does not come on as fast as supply to hob, handles can get hot however fan comes on to cool them down

+ easy to use and clean

- hob racks could have done with being in 4 instead of 2, as it makes them clumsy to clean

+ The Cooker is simple to use, oven items take no time to cook at all

- the pan supports are very fragile and the saucepan slides easy on the metal grid, no grip

+ Reviewer left no comment

- timer buttons very weak could break

+ Easy to use, large glass door makes bottom oven visible (with the light on)without having to open the door.

- I would prefer the ignition switch on the other side of the cooker (but left handed people may find its current location very convenient!)

+ Good looker and easy to maintain.

- Would have liked all the flame bits to have been the same size and the bit that the pots rest on is not level.

+ very good value for money

- havn't found any yet!

+ looks, price, easy to use,

- having the largest cooking ring at the front.

+ nice easy to use oven that looks stylish too

- grill gets hot quickly when oven is in use

+ Large oven capacity compared to comparative ovens. Looks good. Oven door easier to clean now you can remove the glass. Can level the feet on the oven. Can use the grill shelf in the oven for a spare shelf.

- Oven poorly designed as alot of heat escapes from the top of the oven door therefore I've found my small kitchen heats up very fast when the fan comes on and the knobs on the cooker also become too hot to handle after a period of time. Plus the amount of heat coming from the oven could hurt a small child if passing closeby to it. Stoves engineer say this is normal for this design of cooker. The new style loose grillpan handle is useless, the 1st time I used it I dropped the food on the floor, lucliky I kept my old Stoves grillpan with integral handle on it which fits in the new grill cavity so I use that everyday..

- The handle on the grill is not very good as it does not stay in place very well and could lead to the grill pan slipping from the handle.

- The grill gets very hot even when it is not on and the oven is just on. also the oven door gets so hot my little boy touched it and burnt his hand i never had this porblem with my last cooker which was a hotpoint. also the grill handle doesnt stay on so i have to use a tea towel or oven gloves to remove the grill as it has fallen off a few times and the grill and food has landed on the floor.

+ The design is very nice & it comletes all the functions as it should.

- The bad points are that, when the oven is on, the grill door get rediculously hot! enough to easily burn a child or adult alike. Also the pan plates could be more robust. They are not as sturdy as my previous cookers. The glass lid seems brittle and it doesn't have an anti slam mechanism on it. should you drop the lid by accident, it may shatter.

- although the oven is wider than my previous stoves cooker I wasn't expecting it to be less deep - so much so that my roasting dishes and other baking ware will not fit in. The grill gets incredibly hot when the oven is on - almost as hot as the oven below so any plates put in there to warm whilst the oven is on are dangerously hot. I shall be asking someone to come and check the oven thermostat as even on gas mark 2 food gets incinerated.
