Anonymous verified purchaser , “We are fussy buyers”

+ Is does everything we want from a combination oven

- It is a little deep ( front to back ) overall and therefore requires quite alot of space

Pat, Wallasey

+ Very easy to use. Although it is the same size as other microwaves it has been designed so the usable area inside is larger and so can accomodate larger plates, dishes etc. Easy to read instructions. Perfect.

Mrs C, Manchester , “Busy lady”

+ Great supplement to my normal oven now that I do not have a double oven.
Using it more now than just for re-heating.
Good that it was available in white as most microwaves are silver now.

- Would have liked it to be a lower power (ie. 800) as instructions on food do not give timings for 900 and I have to make a guess & I don't always get it right!

+ Great microwave with lots of features. Easy to keep clean as it's stainless steel inside Really useful micro/oven combination cooking

- Very deep and needs a lot of clear space above and behind. doesn't always cook as quickly as I think it should when using micro and oven combi.

Ali , Ryde,Isle of Wight

+ Turntable for even cooking and browning.
2 varied height shelves to maximize space.
Combination cooking is so much quicker and this model cooks evenly and browns brilliantly.

- The vent is on the top of this model, you have to be careful about putting things on top of the oven.My earlier model had the vent at the back so I used to stack pans there.

Sandra, Wimborne Minster , “normal everyday house wife”

+ This product is 100% perfect for what it is. It does all its meant to do, it is easy to use from cooking something to defrosting. It is easy quick efficient, what more can you ask, this is one of the best microwaves we have even bought. I could not give this item any more praise that I do, this item is well worth buying if you are looking for a mid sized easy to use microwave. As a TV ad says, it does exactly what it says on the Box.

- Could have better none slip feet on its base. It tends to move easy when it is pushed a bit by children. So its feet need to be a little bit stronger, they should have a bit more grip to them.

Ida, Saffron Walden , “like things tobe practical”

+ Read comment below

- Never got to use it as they lead is only about 50cm long so not able to get anywhere near a plug. Perhaps manufacturers can be less stingy and put a decent lead on their products.

Milly, Cambrodge , “Love to cook” More like this »

+ I originally purchased this item last year and was absolutely blown away by it, so easy to use that it became one of the most used pieces of equipment in our kitchen (next to my Bamix!). I didn't realise how much use it had until it unfortunately needed replacing after a fault. The fact that it can be used in so many different ways is geat and I am sure far more energy efficient that using the larger oven.

Dennis, Ayr

+ Easy to use and the microwave function is excellent.

- Grill/Oven temperature needs to be set higher than recommended or the item takes longer to cook. Browning of items is not very good - possibly because it is a quartz grill/oven.
