Hotpoint HW170LI Width: 500mm Gas Cooker Reviews

+ Its nice and compact, theres lots of space on the hob. The grill separate from oven is useful. It also has the flame safety device for use in flats and appartments. Easy to clean.

- I didnt like the biggest burner being at the front. It made me a little nervous about when my grandchildren visit.

+ easy to use

+ We live in a rural area with no mains gas supply, this was the only cooker we looked at that came factory set for L.P.G. The installation was simple, so inexpensive. Seems to be a bit of a no frills cooker, which is O.K. with me. It has performed well up to now hopefully it will continue to do so.

- Plate needs to be slotted in below control panel when useing grill, to prevent knobs overheating. A poor piece of design work. The grill is also slow, the only complaint from my wife, ( she has now bought an electric toaster ).

+ just what i was looking 4. very good value

- none

+ Easy to use once get use to having to keep gas lit for 10 seconds on initial ignition.

- Grill is very slow and doesn't seem to brown consistently.

+ easy to clean.

- Oven is too low. Would be even better with a lid.

+ excellent value for money. Very good oven

- a little narrow and can't really hold 4 large pans at one time. Also could have benefitted from have diagrams above the knobs to let us know which burner is on

+ Easy to use, looks good.

+ We needed an LPG cooker and their seem to be very few on the market.
The product generally performs well but has a few niggles as decribed below.

- The grill pan height settings are too low and it wont stoy away without removing the handle.
General finishes are below the quality we expected.
The hob jets have a tendancy to extinguish if you turn them down to minimum too quickly.
Arranging delivery was a huge problem with broken appointments and calls not returned.

+ Bought to fit on a narrowboat, Flame fail device on all burners, grill and oven., doesn't need a mains electric supply.

- Can't think of any as yet.

+ Good neat design and I've been enjoying to bake in the oven.

- I don't fancy the board above the grill at all.
It would be nice to have it cheaper.

+ Perfect for what I want. Only had it a couple of weeks but so far everything works well.

- Haven't found any yet, but it's early days!

+ Hob, controls, ease of use.

- Grill runners, Oven runners.

+ Lovely compact on the outside yet has seperate grill and oven. Easy to clean.

- Don't provide fitting pipes and connectors.

+ We wanted it for our narrowboat. It was exactly the right size. The flame failure device ensured that it was acceptable for the boat safety certificate - and having a battery ignition was an unexpected bonus. We thought we would have to use matches as we have only 12v electrics.!

- Haven't found any yet, but haven't used it much
