Advantages: Relatively robust , reasonable value., practical colours Disadvantages: Grill door must remain open when in use
I purchased the silver version of this freestanding gas cooker and grill some 10 weeks ago. The cooker is available finished in either silver or gold enamel which appears to be quite robust and hard wearing. The cooker top is black as are the sides. I thought the WL stood for without lid, but it seems from the instructions that it means waist level. This was clearly lost on me at the time of purchase but I did not require a glass lid in any case.
Beware confusion in the listed title description of this product. It is certainly not for LPG (liquid propane gas connection) and this is specifically mentioned in all the literature.
The 550 version is 55 cm wide and if you have the space, well worth upgrading to 55cm cooker, since it is surprising just what extra can be fitted into the oven when friends arrive.

I bought this cooker when I moved 3 years ago. I wanted a double oven for those family sunday dinners, and a gas hob because I was fed up with my old electric hob taking ages to heat up.
I did a lot of research before choosing to buy a Stoves cooker, they seem to be one of the most reliable makes and good quality. It was an expensive buy but I thought it was worth it to get exactly what I wanted.
It is silver with smoked glass in the oven doors, the knobs are black and silver and it looks great.
This is a dual fuel cooker with electric ovens and gas hob, so you get the best of both worlds. The bottom oven is big enough for a 20lb turkey and is fan assisted. The top oven also contains the grill, and is not fan assisted.
The knobs are easy to turn and there is electronic ignition. The clock is easy to set and there is a timer ...

Advantages: Cost, Improves range, Energy reliance, green, improving technology Disadvantages: Small amount of petrol to start
My LPG conversion was installed a year ago I had being toying with the idea for a while. after hearing my partners uncle had it on a Lexus I took the plunge. 2 grand a small wheel like tank in tool slot at rear of vehicle and it was installed. The LPG can be switched between petrol and LPG and the fact you can have a tank of petrol and a tank of Gas gives your car a longer range. The LPG tank is full for £20 as oppose to £30 for half a tank of petrol - such a big difference but the car needs a small amount of petrol to start so I keep a quarter of a tank of petrol in usually just for that purpose. If you get the LPG system installed correctly the car doesnt suffer much loss in power. I was made aware of rally cars with 200hp engines running on gas and I also drove a converted vauxhall calibre that really flew, overtaking was easy ...
