Advantages: different sized hobs, oven handle does not get hot Disadvantages: small grill pan, no back on storage compartment
...The oven was the New World Cotswold Deluxe, a free standing high level cooker, and was priced at £259.95 from Curry's. As soon as I saw it I knew I simply HAD to have this stove. The grill pan was at just the right height for both me and my husband (he's 6ft, I'm 5ft) and it didn't take long to persuade him that 'this was the one'.
Once we the cooker had been installed at home it was time to put it to use. The instruction book, although rather bulky ... ...follow and I had it switched on within seconds. The ignition is the fairly standard 'push and turn selected knob to full power and press ignition switch' type and I was pleased to discover that it lit quite quickly (but then I had been using a VERY old gas cooker at my mothers house).

...just brought my wife a new Gas cooker she has difficulty with her hands when cooking.
I chose a New World white Cotsworld Delux cooker.
I paid £245.00 from Currys.
This cooker has an eye level grill with two handles, a lot of the grills I looked at only had a single handle on the grill which makes it heavier, but with the two handles you can balance the weight, this is also helpful for the elderly has well.

This is an easy cooker to clean most dirt just wipes off with a wet cloth.
The oven door opens out from the right there is a long bar just below the top of the door in a gold finish, this bar makes it easy to open unlike some cookers which have the round handle type.

Combine professional results and the finesse of conventional cooking, with this solid and ... more
reliable freestanding gas cooker from New World. Presented in a modern black finish, its traditional design hides a wealth of options to help you cook great food.The oven offers 62L of conventional cooking bliss - so whether it's gently browning bread, simmering a casserole or roasting a turkey, there's more than enough room. Flexible shelf positioning makes life easier when it comes to fitting large meals in, while a double glazed window means you can check on progress without opening the oven door. The variable gas grill is set above the hob, so you don't have to bend to use it - and is perfect for preparing toast, delicious melts or crisping crème brulée. A handy storage compartment, situated at the bottom of the unit, lets you tidy all your bulky utensils away, leaving your kitchen clutter free. There are four gas burners in three different sizes to make light work of simmering, sautéing or fast-heat frying. Enamel pan supports are less cumbersome than their cast iron counterparts and can be easily wiped clean. Controls are front-mounted and ignition is mains-powered and automatic. This model can be connected to a normal, 13 amp socket and also requires connection to the mains gas supply, and if you live in England, Scotland or Wales, a Gas Safe Register"fitter is required, or if you live in Northern Ireland, a Corgi fitter. It is not suitable for use in flats or rental property as it is not FSD compliant. Comes with a 1 year manufacturer's guarantee.
