+ The EKT6045X has the touch sensitive panel situated at the front of the hob section. Previous cookers I owned suffered from spillages entering the controls and timer electronics. This cooker has a basically sealed hob and therefore spillages are not a problem added to the fact that the hob surface and surrounding areas can be easily kept clean. The touch controls are very simple to use and understand both intuitally or after having read the excellent instruction manual. The oven works very well and the lighting and mostly uninterupted view to the interior are outstanding. Very quiet in use, oven doors stay cool and the stainless steel trim looks very good.
- None that I am aware of at this stage.

+ Fantastic cooker - I have loved mine from the first day I have had it. The cooker is easy to use, and keep clean and its great being able to see into the ovens so easily. The touch pad controls are more complex than tradditional dials but the manual is well written and explains it all so you get used to it very quickly - so don't let it put you off. As an experienced cook I thought I was unlikely to use many of the different cooking modes as they are often just gimmicks on cookers but I have used quite a few of the different modes as they do make a difference. It was my wedding present from my parents and I love them every day for it!
- The only complaint I can make is a really minor one - the timer beep is quieter than on my old cooker so I have to leave the kitchen door open a bit to hear it throughout the house - I think I can live with that!

Now that we have got accustomed to the cooker controls there are no problems.
It is great for bread making as the dough can prove in the 80degree oven.
Not a good or a bad point but we have not needed the grill in the main oven so far.
Lovely and easy to clean with none of those knobs to get round.
I am not sure we have stretched it to its limits yet, but Christmas is coming.
- I would have liked one more shelf.

+ looks good easy to control once you get the hang of it. Has so many features. One crit I read before I bought said it was like controlling the Starship Enterprise
- Bit hard to get the hang of all the things it does and the manual took some absorbing. Could have been better and easier to follow and I say that as a very gadget conscious computer geek
purchased 07 Sep 2007
+ looks good, no awkward bits for grease to hide on hob
- takes a bit of getting used to, to get the best out of the functions. Helps to read the manual!
purchased 06 Aug 2007
+ the cooker looks really modern and stylish, the instruction booklet was easy to use and i noticed the difference in my cooking from the first time i used the cooker. its really great that if you leave a tea towel on the hob it beeps as a warning, this weekend i cooked a full on roast dinner for five and it went like clockwork plenty of room for all the dishes. This cooker is well worth the money
- Ask me in 5 years time, for now i can't fault it
purchased 06 Mar 2008
+ It's simply the best cooker we've ever had - fast, responsive, easy to clean and a great design - especially the turbo grill which produces tender, moist chops, steak etc.
- Can't think of any - it's not cheap but compared to the problems we've had with other makes it's worth it.

+ I have only found good points with the cooker, I suffer with Arthritis so the main problem I had with other cookers was cleaning them, but with this cooker everything is so much easier. I am very pleased with it. I cannot find any bad points with it.

+ Fantastic looking cooker, cooks a treat and very energy efficient.
- Keeps coming up with faults, had engineers out twice to same faults and is still causing problems.

+ the touch controls take a bit of getting used to, but well worth it. Very easy to use, Having never had a cooker with closed door grilling, I wasn't sure about it butit is brill !!

purchased 14 Apr 2008
+ Both top and bottom ovens heat up really quickly. Easy to control temperature settings. Very good instruction manual. No knobs means less cleaning!!
- Hob rings do take a bit longer to heat up than I am used to.
purchased 12 Apr 2008
+ Bottom oven good temperature control and quick heat up
- Top oven large temperature variation. Control difficult to understand.
purchased 23 Dec 2007
+ nice easy to clean lines
- can switch on by accident easily, burnt the iron flex and a packet of pasta when leant on accidently
purchased 21 Apr 2008
+ Great Look. Oven and grill amazing.
- Touch controls a little hard to get used to bit complicated.

Hobs heat quickly. Accommodates all size of pans easily. Both ovens a good size and with useful varying functions.
Very good grill. Very good temperature control
Looks absolutely stunning. Easy to clean so far.
I love it.
- Instruction book leaves quite a lot unsaid which are prob.blindingly obvious to the company. Still having a bit of trouble with the hob timers. Took me a day to realise how one puts both oven on at the same time !!! Grill pan handle difficult to manage quickly. Probably not the easiest cooker to use because its assets mean slightly complicated execution. Timer ringer quiter than on last cooker. Difficult to hear elsewhere in house.
