+ For a 60 wide cooker it's roomy, double ovens work very well and the cast iron top feels good to cook on.
- it uses a lot of energy and we had to have a new fuse/trip switch put in to cope with the extra demand

+
Both top and Main ovens heat up ready for use in short time.
Includes a timer for countdown (although features could be improved - see Bad Points).
Looks are very stylish for the price bracket.
Like the Wok burner, very effective - isolating controls for inner and outer rings would be helpful
-
Timer could have more features - e.g. to be able to program a time for oven to switch on, then switch off after cooking time => meal ready when you come home after being out all day.
Timer feature only includes a countdown and this only goes up to maximum of 99 mins 50 sec.
Main oven door opens downwards (on to floor) rather than hinged at Left or Right, we found this strange, possibly not a bad point wrt safety, i.e. less likely to kick door closed by accident.
Main oven fan a bit noisy.

+ simple contemporary design, very easy to use, good variation of gas burners including wok holder
- slightly taller than average cooker, therefore does not sit flush with worktop
purchased 22 Nov 2007
+ Looks good, very simple to operate, sturdy control knobs and cast iron pan supports which make it much more robust than similar cookers. Digital clock/timer display is clear and easy to use.
- Fan continues to run for about 40 mins after use to cool the oven down which is a bit annoying.

+ I am very satisfied with the quality of this cooker. It is easy to use and clean and the dual fuel is ideal as we can eat, even when we experience one of our many powercuts.

+ Nice chunky design, solid, big ovens, easy to use timer, comes with wok trivet.
- Very heavy cast iron pan supports which may not suitable for all.
purchased 26 Apr 2008
+ Ease of use and design. Looks great in a modern kitchen.
- Grill very slow.
purchased 14 Oct 2008
+ The design is great, the wok holder is great and the fact that the hob is a heavyweight metal is much better than the lightweight ones we used to have on the old cooker. Great having the two ovens, the top conventional but can be used as a grill as well. ideal cooker

+ Nice design.
- The gas hob doesn't do simmering very well. There are only two settings high or medium on any of the rings

+ I like the wok burner as i use to alot in chinese cooking...not quite fast as a turbo in a professionals wok burner but good for home use.
- cleaning the tops as the cast iron things are quite heavy but a good quality material though can be difficault to clean as it catches the cloth friction.
purchased 06 Jun 2008
+ my first duel fuel & double oven & i wish i'd had one years ago. i'm finding it easy to use. the huge tray for the grill is fantastic compared to the grill tray you get in most ovens, it's what made me consider it in the first place along with wok ring & the sturdy top. the fitter said to me it's the nicest looking free standing cooker he's ever seen. it doesn't have a lid because of how the hob rings sit but i'm not classing this as a bad point as it doesn't affect me & if i had really wanted a lid then i'd have chosen a different cooker.
- haven't find any & hope i don't.

+ It's a great looking cooker, easy to clean & has a large grill pan, which is something manufacturers often fail to provide.

+ Cast iron pan grills, easy to clean hob and easy to use controls
- No class lid

having a duel oven makes this product very good. especially if you have a large family to cook for.
one of the best purchases i have made recently.
- at this moment in time there are no bad points to this product.
purchased 21 Mar 2008
+ Don't have gas so the fact that it converts to bottled gas is great. Love the cast iron stand for the pans on the top
- Don't like the knobs.
