Advantages: Combination, conventional cooking and fan, self cleaning Disadvantages: Drop down doors a bit awkward at first
...So here were go:-
Hotpoint Built in Double Oven BD32
A built in double oven, conventional oven/grill at the top and fan assisted oven below. The doors are hinged to open at the bottom opening like a flat drop down door. I wasn't sure about the doors opening this way at first but having got used to them, I find them useful now as I can use them a bit like a spare shelf whilst getting things in and out of the oven.
Both the top oven/grill and main ... ...Cleaning

There was also a basic Do's and Don't safety information section.
I have to admit to not reading the instructions through completely when I first got the oven and I have learnt a thing or two since reading it properly.

Exchange of emails, I pointed out my consumer rights and they replied I should contact the retailer.

Advantages: Has a great fan assisted oven (no more Aunt Bessies!!) Disadvantages: May take a little timegetting used to the controls.
The sales assistant wasn't really impressed that we didn't take out and extended warranty. But as it comes with a free 5 year warranty, I thought that I would wait until nearer the time. In order to have the free 5 year warranty you have to fill in the paperwork and send back to Hotpoint. It as always a good idea to keep your receipt and a photocopy of any details sent. I chose the black model which cleans up really well. The main oven cooks almost ... ...test. I have not experienced any odours from the oven, which you usually get upon the first few times that you use a new oven. The BD32 has an AA energy rating and a programmable timer. It may take a little time to get used to the controls. ...
