Kenwood Apps KCTAL30 Combi Microwave , microwave

+ Large capacity powerful microwave. Good grill - can't comment on the oven as I haven't used it yet.

- Having to open the door each time you want to adjust a setting. Doesn't work very effectively on the defrost by weight function - food is invariably still frozen.

+ It looks quite smart on my kitchen work surface and I like that the temp goes up to 230 degrees

- I find I have to set the oven 10 degrees hotter than recipe states as it doesn't hold a constant temperature brilliantly. Sometimes I need to cook the dish for slightly longer too. But that's just a case of getting used to it. The outer bangs disconcertingly when it heats up too. Again, something to get used to rather than an actual problem. The controls being inside the door, although smart looking, is quite annoying.

+ Everything above - looks features design, a good replacement for our Sharp Microwave which was nearly thirty years old, and still working!

- None found as yet.

+ Stylish design

- Mirrored door shows up marks and grease

+ A clever machine with every possible requirement.

- Poor visibility through oven door.

+ compact size much smaller than other combi ovens. very east to use

- setting minutes to cook takes too much time it just changes a second at a time
