I was not planning to replace my cooker until the old one died last November. But how glad I am that I did!

This stylish cooker looks great in the kitchen. The pristine white is set off superbly by the glass cover which keeps dust and grease away from the rings.

It has four rings - 2 medium, one small and one very large, each of which can be adjusted for height of flame.

The top oven also houses the grill and is very useful if you are cooking something which does not require a lot of space eg baked potatoes, as you are running a smaller oven therefore cooking more economically.,

The large oven is great if you need to put a large pot of something in or need to use more than one shelf at once. As this oven is heat -zoned you can cook the Sunday roast with roast potatoes around in the centre and put a fruit pie or crumble lower down. You can also move things down to the bottom which are almost ready so they will keep warm without burning.

When the family is all round for dinner ,both ovens can be used together for maximum cooking space. As the cooker is extra wide it is amazing how much food you can get in it at once!

Cleaning the hob is easy - inside is not so easy but no more difficult than most cookers.

The only problem I have found was that I let some fat catch fire in the grill pan and it was very hard to reach the controls to turn off the gas as the flames were shooting out and around the controls. But that is down to user care and not really the fault of the cooker!

If the door to the top oven is shut while the grill is in use, the gas is shut off - an excellent safety feature in case youforget the grill is on and close the door.

I would certainly recommend this cooker to anyone, especially with a large hungry family,
