Good points:: Looks good, nice big main oven. Efficient and straightforward to use. Easy to clean although glass needs polishing well to maintain good appearance.
Bad points:: would have preferred the small simmer burner at the back and a medium size burner at the front.

Robert, Walsall

Score 10.0/10

Good points:: Stylish design without being too "tecky". Would integrate nicely into comtemporary and traditional environments. The fan-assisted main oven is very efficient and relatively quiet. The cast iron pan supports are light enough for the dishwasher.
Bad points:: None to report as yet.

Main heating type	Convection
Conventional ovens heat from the bottom so the top of the oven will be slightly hotter than the bottom. This is useful when you’re cooking lots of different dishes at a time. However, they do take a little longer than fan ovens to heat up. Convection (or fan) ovens circulate the air so that you get an even temperature throughout the oven. They are quicker to heat up which means they save on energy and time. Multifunction (convection or conventional) ovens give you the flexibility to use different methods of cooking. They usually have both fan and conventional settings as well as pizza settings that will only cook from the bottom, giving you a crispy pizza, or top-only cooking that is very useful for browning.
