+ This is the third hotpoint oven I have had. When I move house, I research all the new ovens available, but always seem to go back to hotpoint. I like the style and price. It's easy to use and very reliable.

+ This is the 3rd time I have bought this model over the last 20 years, even though it has been updated over the years. I have always found this appliance to be of very good value and most important it cooks great! I would recommend this appliance very highly.

+ Self clean oven linings - clear clock face - easy to use dials that tuck away - light in top oven as well as main oven. Pleased with the finish which is easy to keep clean with baby oil. Hope it will be as good as our previous Hotpoint oven of 16 years.

- None at the moment.

Susan, Eccles

+ Easy to use and keep clean. Has a defrost setting and a slow-cook setting. The ovens themselves are slightly larger than those of similar ovens with the same outer dimensions which is the main reason for choosing this particular model. The economy setting of the grill is handy for one slice of toast or grilling one portion as only one half of the grill is activated. It was very reasonably priced and I really can't fault it. I would buy the same again.

- I still haven't fathomed the timer, mainly because I've not really had to use it. It doesn't seem particularly straight forward and neither was setting the clock although I did manage that eventually. However, someone else might not find it a problem at all.

+ Very easy to use previous oven had small oven at bottom so find this one much easier to use. Looks smart and is easy to clean. Has all the programmes I would use. Found the knobs strange at first but are a good idea to be flush when not in use.

- None
