Smeg SUK62MFX5

I bought this cooker after having to have a another branded cooker uplifted. I have to say looking around you can buy a cooker at a fraction of the price but decided initially to spend around £600 so as to get something of reasonable quality.

Unfortunately this was not how it ended with the first cooker being of dreadful build quality and not great to cook with. I had seen this before but ruled it out because it was a little more than ...
...a second look and compared it to the one I had to have sent back I was sold and without even discussing it with the wife I just ordered it. When I showed her the picture she was not convinced, that was until it was delivered!

Totally and utterly thrilled with it did not think about the cost at all as the quality totally out weighs it. They say you get what you pay for and this is a good example of this.

I can't comment ... more

I can't comment on other top branded makes but this compared to the one previous that was made by big brand name is in a totally different class. All the panels fit nicely, doors open and close with a nice smooth easy action. The adjustment when using the hob is accurate and even a small amount makes a difference.

The other thing is that it comes with everything you need, ie the chains fitted to secure it to the wall (to meet regs) the gas connection at the back is of the bayonette type. The hose is not included I might ad but the washers are to fit it. It also comes with additional jets that are for LPG I think.

I had a Corgi registered plumber and Part P registered electrician fit mine to keep within all the regs. I guess it could be easier to clean but I/we just wipe down after each use.

I would like to mention that the things I have noted and been so impressed with are compared to a previous cooker. So it might seem I am focusing on odd things but its what stood out to me.
