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: Dual oven, easy to clean Disadvantages: Gas cut off re-instates
toddler is around and worse still, if the door is shut the gas is automatically cuts off but when opened again it comes back but does not ignite so there is potential for quite a nasty accident if you are not careful.
My other dislike is the knobs. One split after 14 months so I had to buy a new one at £11.75 which took 4 weeks to arrive and now another has split.
I would buy another Stoves cooker but only if they have improved the things I don't like ...

Ainsley Harriott is one of Britain's most popular TV chefs. Multi-talented, this former comedian and musician returned to his first love, cooking, as the presenter of several high-profile BBC cookery programmes. He's invariably described as "flamboyant". I think he's a little OTT sometimes, and Ramsay certainly isn't a fan of his. But despite his zaniness he really is an excellent cook. Fast, simple, delicious food - I think that sums him up.
I own three of his books but the one I'm about to review here is "Gourmet Express". This is one of my all-time favourite cookbooks and would probably accompany me to the proverbial Desert Island. (I have a couple of hundred cookbooks, so that's not a small compliment.)
The book really does do what it says on the tin - gourmet food to make at home more quickly than you could order a take ...
