Advantages: COOKS EXTREMELY GOOD.
Disadvantages: NO TIMER.

...is burning. It has sufficient features that make it a very good and reliable one. I got this through recommendation by a friend and on the other hand in catalogues and sites. Zanussi is now a product that I am now developing likeness for because they are now powering more on household appliances they should keep it up. I will not say that this is a regret because when I got it new, I started some how to put blames on my self on spending such an amount on gas cooker alone later realized that this is a must do thing. Since I got this, I can now save some money from fast food joints and this really is helping me a lot and that is a very big advantage on my side. All I need now from the appliance is longevity . Since I live alone, I see it lasting long for me without any problem. Its number of burners is 5 and I am comfortable... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, wipe clean front
Disadvantages: Inherrent fault with fuses, hob isn't very easy to clean

.... 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.... Read review

Advantages: Timer, Glass top
Disadvantages: /

...one is good for a frying pan or large based pan, although to be honest, unless both back burners are being used I don't really use the front ones much. The top oven/grill is a little on the small size for me. I would have preferred it to be slightly larger so I could fit pans on both the shelf and the bottom of the oven space, as I often end up cooking more than one variety of meal and it is often imperative that I have both ovens on at different temperatures and therefore need to utilise every scrap of oven space. The grill pan doesn't actually come with the cooker for some reason and we had to phone Zanussi and get them to send it through. It was free but make sure you ask for the grill pan, the wire rack and the grill pan handle. We thought it would be altogether and were sadly let down, having to make separate phone calls and orders... Read review

Advantages: Good looking, easy to use, durable
Disadvantages: No Clock

...I purchased the Zanussi 70cm Stainless Steel Range Cooker about 6 weeks ago and would like to detail my experiences so far. First of all it is a nice looking cooker, the stainless steel looks superb and feels nice and cool as well. I liked the particulary large oven that it has which is iseal for cooking for families, it comes with 2 shelves which as adjustable so will fit in a very large bird. The energy rating is “A” The Hob is stainless steel and has 5 Gas burner areas’s with a particulary good centre burner which I use for cooking with my Wok, oriental dishes come out well because of the heat generated – a problem with electric cookers that I have had previously.The gas burners are cast iron and appear to be very durable so far, they are also really stable – no wobbles so far. The knobs are quite nice as well. The oven... Read review

Advantages: Styling, Cost, Lovely Hob.
Disadvantages: Fan oven a bit over enthusiastic.

...This is by no means a cheap cooker, but everything on it oozes quality. All the buttons and dials switch and turn positively, with no play in them at all. Visually the cooker looks stunning, with halogen hobs, and the usual array of sizes and half /full rings. The cooker has a top and a bottom oven. The top oven doubles as a grill, and both have the benefits of a backlight and fan operation. The Zanussi cooks quickly and evenly; in fact it is so efficient especially with the fan oven that you may need to take about 10% the cooking times. The purchase cost was £600 including a good deal on a 5-year warranty thrown in for free.... Read review

Advantages: Main oven works well. Looks cool in catalogue
Disadvantages: Appalling build quality/quality control

...The ZCE8020AX (the Smile Cooker!) is an all electric double oven cooker with ceramic hob. Mine was delivered direct from Zanussi, when I unpacked it I found a VERY large dent all the way down one side. Other than that the cooker was fine. I contacted Zanussi customer services about the dent and they said they could offer me £30 compensation for the dent (should have been more like £130), or they could send an engineer, I chose the engineer but complained that it meant taking time off work. The CS assistant said this was not a problem because they did evening and weekend appointments. I was happy with this and was told that someone would call to arrange an appointment before 8 o'clock that evening. What excellent service I thought Nobody called The next day however Zanussi called to arrange an appointment. Naturally I asked... Read review

Advantages: Very durable | Cheap | Does what it's supposed to |
Disadvantages: No fancy functions

...After leaving home I'd had a series of second-hand cookers and although they'd done the job pretty well, I couldn't help but dream of that day when I could afford to buy my very own sparkling brand new cooker. So I scrimped and I saved and eventually I had enough money to go and buy the cooker of my dreams, which ended up being the Creda Capri, a gas fuelled cooker in a beautiful shade of racing green. ---Why the Capri?--- I was on a limited budget (under £250) when I bought this, but was still looking for something that would fit in with my then green themed kitchen. I also wanted gas fuelled rather than electric, because I've always felt electric cookers smell funny (especially the hob). After much deliberation and searching around the shops and home shopping catalogues (I didn't have the internet then), I happened upon the Creda... Read review

Advantages: Frost Free,Large Freezer Space, Large Fridge capacity
Disadvantages: Quite Noisy

...took over. By 1951 they had a work force that had risen from just 10 to 300 and they invented the first gas cooker. 1954 was a crucial year and its first fridges were to come off the production line. In 1964 it introduced the first fridge with a –12 degrees freezer compartment. By this time they were manufacturing many different products and unbelievably they launched the first dishwasher in 1965. Zanussi (the appliance of science) are a brand that are well known around the world today and it was the name that made me think I would be getting value for money. They are part of the Electrolux group who are also well known. The Electrolux group is the world’s largest producer of powered appliances for kitchen, cleaning and outdoor use. More than 55 million Electrolux Group products (such as refrigerators, cookers, vacuum cleaners... Read review
