+ Looks good, easy to use, consistently good results. Like the split element on the grill, I can save energy by just using one half of the element when only cooking a single item of food.

- handle of grill pan gets hot when lower oven is being used, even if the grill is not being used.

Stephanie, St Helens

+ Very happy with the product it looks good and the stainless steel exterior doesn't seem to show fingermarks - as I've noticed with other cookers.

- Too early to say as yet - not been using it very long.

Karen, Stroud

+ Looks lovely. Cooks evenly.

- The gap between the two panes of glass on the main oven door is a nuisance. If you spill something down there you have to unscrew the top pane, clean it and fix it back on.

Glenys, Leeds , “I bake a lot.”

+ Easy to use, instructions clear and precise. Glass viewing door makes it easy to see your food cooking. Easy to keep clean.

- Would prefer to have a side opening door to the oven for easier accessibility (as I am only 4' 11'' tall and have to reach across the space that the door takes up.) The removable handle to the grill pan is of a poor design and does not fasten on safely.

Catherine, Plymouth

+ Nice design, good chunky controls. I like the amount of shelves that were supplied. heats up quickly.

- Not that keen on the grill pan, you have to screw the handle on, so you cant leave it in the appliance as it won't fit. I've already burnt my arm on it, but that was my fault.

- Need the manual at hand to adjust clock and timer settings. It's not that it's that difficult, but it's not something you do often so it doesn't go in as well as if you did. This would be the same with any that you get though

TJ, Kent

+ Looks good. Very easy to use. Easy to keep clean. Very pleased with my choice

- A bigger grill pan would have been better, with a removable handle. The pan that came with the oven is to small and you have to wedge it in (because of the handle) so you can shut the door after use.
Fan can be a little noisy sometimes.

Product Features

Fuel	Electric
Construction	Built-in
Built-in machines have a cabinet door attached to the front of them so that they look like the rest of your kitchen. Freestanding machines can be seen and the machine can be placed in any position in your kitchen.
Oven Cavity	Double
Heating Type of Main Oven	Convection and Fan
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. 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 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.
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.
Finish	Silver
Energy Efficiency	A
The more efficient the product, the less energy it needs and the more you get for your money. ‘A’ rated products are the most efficient and ‘G’ rated products are the least efficient. The most efficient products can now be identified by new ‘A’ and ‘A*’ ratings.
Height in mm	900
Width in mm	600

Depth in mm	580
Cool Door	No
A cool door will make sure the door does not heat up as you’re cooking. A great feature if you have small children.
Non-tip Shelves	Yes
Non-tip shelves enable you to pull the shelves out, rather than reaching deep into the oven to take something out. As the name suggests, when you pull the shelves out, they don’t tip forwards.
Grill Function	Yes
The grill function is useful for browning and crisping up food.
Release Date	1 Apr 2005
The date the product was originally made available for purchase.
Dimensions (mm)	600x900x580
The size of the device in millimetres, in width x height x depth.
Depth in cm	58

Colour	Silver
The main colour of the product.
Number of Cooking Zones	2
Clock	Yes
Gas Cylinder	not applicable
Heating Type of Second Oven	Convection
Cooking Program	No
Steam Function in Main Oven	No
Having a steam function is a great way to cook heathly meals. The oven will come with a refillable water canister which it uses to create the steam.
Pull System of Oven	No
Width in cm	60
Microwave Integrated	No
Height in cm	90
The distance from the very top of the product to the very bottom.
