Hotpoint DSC 60 S

The cooker itself is fine, but only 7 months after purchase, the enamel surrounding the hob is flaking off and is rusty underneath. It looks horrendous. Hotpoint have agreed to replace the enamel surround, but will charge if it happens again, which I suspect it will. The cooker has had light/normal fair usage and I've never known enamel on a cooker to be this flimsy. I wish I had never purchased this cooker, as I fear this will be ongoing issue for the lifetime of the cooker. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ... more
