Cause you're hot then you're cold.

Advantages: It looks good.
Disadvantages: Colds spots in ovens. Customer service is rubbish. Engineers like their belt buckles.

...it returned but I called Stoves to give them a chance to fix it. They arranged an engineer to come out but the new lid would be sent separately. The engineer came before the lid! He told me to call back when the lid arrived. A couple of days later the lid arrived with the engineeer a couple of days after that. He opened the box and the lid was smashed so he got on the phone to order another. After another wait I found myself with another lid and ...
...to leave and I called Stoves again. They actually apologised and asked me if the scratch was noticeable enough to see it. "Err, yes, I saw it, that's why I'm calling, would I be calling if I didn't see it?". They arranged another lid and I asked them to arrange an engineer without a belt buckle.

Review of Stoves 600SIDOM

My Stoves cooker

Advantages: Great alrounder
Disadvantages: none

I love my Stoves cooker. It was the first purchase I made for my new home, and to be honest a little over my price range! But my other half talked me into it and ive never looked back. Good solid cooker with sturdy doors. Large glass pannels on the cooker, so you can see your dinner or baking is coming along nicely! Easy detachable components so you can get in and clean, because if your a messy cook like me you certainly need them! I would definately ...

Review of Stoves SI550DOM

worst product on market

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: everything

...have ever had. The dimplex stoves cooker was extremely bad in every repescts. It looked great in the shop, suited the kitchen design but what a mess. It was a poor cooker as the temperature of the ovens did not work properly. This is why one has temp. controls so that baking and cooking can be easily done without fuss or concern. However engineer could not fix it and after 6-7 call outs the company said it was not a manufacturing problem but something ...
...waited till the guarantee ran out and then said they could fix it in ireland for very high prices. Every aspect of the after service was appauling. they could not get an expert to answer why there was poor quality in all aspects.

I received a letter saying ...

Hi there, i purchased my stoves cooker over five years ago at a price of £419 from powerhouse as it had recently hit the market, and its still running with no falts, it atractive style, silver colour, extra wide size, and digital clock attracted me to this cooker. Its excellent to clean all the knobs, shelves, grill, and gas burner top / bottoms, are easily moved and easy to clean. Mine is still looking new after five years of cooking with it. ...
...wide oven, light, see through double glass door, starter switch wich is comected to the main electrical suply via a pug, and four burners. two normal, one simmer, and one rapid. The cooker has a safety cut out function so that if burners are on and the lid is pulled down, the knobs turn back to off, so very safety friendly. It also has a timer function for thing you are putting in the oven or leaving on simmer, an alarm is rang when time is up. ...

Review of Stoves 600SIDLM

Stoves gas cooker spoilt by faults

Advantages: Main oven bakes well
Disadvantages: Knobs need replacing regularly

...4. The top oven burns. I used to bake bread in the top oven of the previous STOVES model, but it is not possible on this one. 5. Difficult to know when the top oven has lit. If the bottom oven can have automatic ignition, why not the top one? ...
