Score 8.0/10

Good points:: Good solid build. Different size burners on hob. Glass lid gives a bit more kitchen space when closed. Nothing complicated-straight forward and easy to use. Top oven good for smaller cooking.
Bad points:: Ignition for oven takes getting used to. Overall looks a bit more black than perhaps was expecting. Glass lid sometimes a bit difficult to balance in the open position- so had to pull forward away from the wall a couple of inches from installation.

Score 9.0/10

Good points:: Does everything as expected. Nice looking cooker.
Bad points:: The grill/top oven shelving doesn't want to move. It feels as though the paint will scrape off as you try to adjust the shelves.

Nelson, London Family cook

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: This cooker is very easy to use. The double oven on this cooker is brill as it does a mean roast. The style of this cooker is sleek and smooth. The safety feature on this over is that it has a gas cut off which makes it very safe for putting in flats.
Bad points:: No light in the ovens so you can't see whatever you are cooking without opening the door.

Product Features

Fuel	Gas
Type of hob	Gas
There are 4 types of hob: gas ceramic (electric) induction (electric) solid plate (electric) “Find out the differences between them and the advantages of each here.”http://www.reevoo.com/decidewhattobuy/2010/09/gas-and-electric-hob-types-demystified/
Oven cavity	Double

Width in cm	50

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.
Type of self cleaning	Catalytic
Self-cleaning ovens can come with catalytic liners or pyrolytic programmes. Calalytic liners are the bumpy surfaces which line the inside walls of the oven. They absorb the food and grease and break it down so that the oven is easier to clean. Pyrolytic programmes run for a couple of hours and burn off all the grime in your oven at temperatures up to 500°C. As it gets so hot, the oven door usually locks so that all you need to do is sweep up the ash that’s left over at the end.
