I've had this almost a year now, decided to buy it as it was cheap and I needed something quickly at the time.
The machine in itself is a very good machine, it's easy to use, and has a handy timer function on it which is quite auditable even from the other side of the house.

I've had this almost a year now, decided to buy it as it was cheap and I needed something quickly at the time.
The machine in itself is a very good machine, it's easy to use, and has a handy timer function on it which is quite auditable even from the other side of the house. The surroundings of the machine and insides are generally easy to clean, but I have found that I had to purchase special ceramic hob cleaner for the top as nothing else would clean it. I tried one product which said it was good for all surfaces especially appliances, and found that it wiped the text right off of one of my control knobs which I wasn't very happy about.
I had to get a repair done on this after about 6months of having it as one of the fuses behind the far right control knob had blown and kept tripping my electrics everytime I used that ring. The engineer said that it's quite a common fault on these Zanussi Cookers, and an easy fix, but I was still a bit annoyed that it had happened.
I'd say that it's good for a cheap buy, as it's easy to use and looks good. But make sure to pick up a bottle of ceramic hob cleaner from the retailer you go to.
