Ian, Newport South Wales , “Avid cook ”

Score 9.0/10

+ The cooker was easy to install although it doesn't come with a gas connector pipe and I had to run off and purchace one. Very easy to use and attractive once in place.

- Having some early issues with the main oven being much to hot and burning food even when on lowest setting.

Score 7.0/10

+ THE DOUBLE OVEN IS A USEFUL FEATURE AND COOKS WELL.

- THE HOB HAS FOUR DIFFERENT SIZES BUT THE LARGE AND VERY SMALL ARE AT THE FRONT WHICH IN FRUSTRATING AS I USE THESE THE LEAST AND HAVE TO REACH TO THE BACK. tHE GRILL PAN IS NOT VERY GOOD QUALITY AND THE HANDLE IS A BAD DESIGN. bOTH OVENS ARE DIFFICULT TO SWITCH ON AS YOU HAVE TO HOLD THE DIAL DOWN SOMETIMES FOR UP TO 30 SECS BEFORE IT CATCHS LIGHT AND THEN IT HAS SWITCHED OFF MID WAY THROUGH.

+ The cooker looks good and works well. Main oven and rings heat up quickly.

- Really needs an indicator light to show when the hob is in use!

Product Features

Fuel	Gas
Construction	Freestanding
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.
Width in mm	550

Hob	Gas
Heating Type of Main Oven	Convection
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	None
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	Multi
Energy Efficiency	B
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.
Number of Cooking Zones	4
Height in mm	900
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.
Oven Cavity	Double
Depth in mm	600
Non-tip Shelves	No
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 May 2007
