+ Newer model slimmer, takes up less room. As this was a direct replacement for an old model of the same machine, I was delighted that it took up less room on the countertop.

- I don't have any bad points that I can think of.

Christine, Cliftonville

+ modern, sleek look. compact.

- It seems to take longer to heat up than my previous panasonic combination. More heat comes from on top so things I used to cook in old one now burn on top unless I turn them half way. I use cook in bags to keep oven clean but they melt in this one where they never did in old one. Using the buttons on the right of control pad I didn't have to heat up the oven to cook frozen chips in old one, this one you have to allow extra time for it to come to temperature first.

+ The Stainless Steel Interior finish easier to clean. Visibility of food items from outside is good which makes it easier to look inside, if you need to, midway. The combi/grill mode is great for cooking/heating small quantities of food items. Slimline design leaves ample space on the kitchen top.

- Haven't found any yet.

+ It's compact and the touch control is easy to clean, so is the inside. If you have left the kitchen & go back later you won't forget that you put something in it as it has open the door on the display.

- It doesn't cook by singular seconds.

delia, dolgellau , “always review b4 buying ”

+ Cooks so quickly.

- If cooking convection, because the top grill is on, food can burn a bit if placed on top rack.

Dominic, Cambridge , “where is Miss Right”

+ a well made product..with good build quality,with looks to match,from a respected manufacturer...

- a little more thought required or in my case flicking through instruction booklet when using, especially if you want the best out of all the functions.

+ It does exactly what is written on the box, well made and working well.

- We would have preferred to know earlier that it cannot be used in an enclosed space, so some note on the product info would be good. In the event we have had to adapt our kitchen to allow its use.

+ easy to use, good instructions very much learning at the moment.

- used chaos defrost as instructed but food was not defrosted. Cooked frozen pizza as described, but soft base so probably best to use the convection

Don, High Harrington , “An educated O.A..”

+ It seems to do everything we require and we do enjoy the preprograms which are available on the machine.

- The only part we do not like is the fact that the grill appears to be on all the time when using the conventional cooking and is not shielded at all, which means in use during convection cooking the tops of whatever are cooking are to near the grill and in consequence get burnt sometimes more than slightly. One way round this is to cover with foil which is a birt of a nuisiance
