Malcolm, Romsey, Hampshire Family cook

Score 4.0/10

Good points:: A reasonably stylish design.
Reasonable price.
Bad points:: Doors do not open to the horizontal position, which makes it difficult and hazardous for short people to safely remove hot items over the raised front edge especially the top oven/grill..
Ovens take far too long to reach cooking temperature which means that gas usage is extended.
There is no option to turn the oven lights off, as it is not necessary to have them on all the time. It would be far better if the dial numbers were illuminated whilst the ovens are in use.
Insufficient variation in shelf heights.
Compared to the old Stoves oven it has had to replace it falls short especially in performance and quality but is quieter.

Good points:: very easy to use
Bad points:: the gap between the display panel and the oven door is a bit big so quite a lot of heat comes from there which is very hot to hand

Construction	Built-in
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.
Fuel	Gas
Oven cavity	Single

Main heating type	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. Convection (or 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 (convection or conventional) 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.
