Electrolux EKT6045X

Having previously used a good quality touch control halogen hob and separate oven (Baumatic) we were looking forward to our nice new high tec super dooper cooker. First impressions were excellent - a sexy and cool looking cooker - geat for showing off and the controls were easy to use and had tons of features. So off we went to use it..... The ovens - especially the fan oven is easy to use, very versatile and get's to optimum temperature (200c) ...
...used once - we mainly use the grill, whioch again is extremely efficient in getting to temperature and has an excellent heat spread - one of my bugbears. The controls - Lot's of options, child locks, delay timers etc and all the usual you would expect with touch control The timer - WHAT A PAIN. it has two options - up or down. It slowly churns in ten second intervals until it get's to 3mins 50 then it races (and I mean races!) in 1 min increments ...

Review of Electrolux EKT6045X

...had the cooker changed by Electrolux in only 3 days. First impressions was that the cooker was much slower to heat up than I had been used to, but that is typical for electric cookers. Five months later, I amused to the heating and cooking at a more gentle pace and the results are better than with gas. The obvious statement is that it is much cleaner. Especially with a ceramic hob, this is a main advantage. The controls are much easier to use ...
...is possible to turn on the hob control by leaning on the cooker, this is not unsafe as it turns itself off again after 5 seconds. Timers on all 4 hobs - great. One niggle is the grill pan; it has a protruding sharp edge which if placed on surfaces can scratch them. Great cooker and can be bought at a lower price than the £900 Comet sell for. ...

Review of Electrolux EKT6045X

My old cooker gave up the ghost after 12 years. I needed a bulit in cooker that was within the same specifiactions and dimensions. I searched on the web and the electorlux matched the specifications price and dimensions. I have had this cooker for 6 moonths and have to say it is fantastic, very efficient , very easy to use. The only real disadvantage is that im only 5 ft tall and so the grill can be difficult to use as it is at the top. However ...

Review of Electrolux EKT6045X

this cooker looks good but has some niggles. It turns itself off too easily, i have been known to lean against it witch turns it off although the buttons are on the top, and the touch control is quite fiddly as sometimes it is hard to change the settings and it can take a long time to choose the wanted temperature. The oven capacity is large with good visibility and the casing looks very neat, the glass front is a lovely feature to look it to but ...
...the gap in the door, this doesnt help with keeping it clean. It fits into the kitchen well and has a nice stainless steel finish, we did however have some problems with this when we first brought it as the steel appeared to look marked but we later discovered that this is nothing to do with the manufacturers. I do like this oven and love the spped in which it cooks things and the space in which it has to fit everything in, but i am continually ...
