    Don’t buy this cooker

    1/5
    Do not buy this cooker. It stinks of hot mechanical oil. We have tried two, as advised by the manufacturer that the first must be a freak fault, the second was just the same. We left the oven on on both for over 4 hours with no sign of it getting any better. We had to leave the house on both occasions as it was that bad. It is not the normal initial burn off smell; it is an inherent issue. I think the formed metal at the back (not part of the oven itself so it doesn’t burn off) has been sprayed with oil to prevent corrosion. Could well have happened before Amica got their hands on it. Either way the fumes from it are disgusting, gave me a headache and made my wife and I feel sick. I am very annoyed that I unwittingly subjected my family to this. AO have subsequently supplied another brand of cooker which doesn’t smell ( an initial burn off smell as expected but soon cleared after 10 minutes ), but AO have not compensated or apologised for this quite frankly alarming product.

    Terrible product

    Terrible cooker not worth the money, used twice to boil potatoes and the hob is marked looks like an old cooker had nothing but problems with this and manufacturer (amica) shocking and very unhelpful.

    Oven door hinge was dodgy, opened the oven after it had been cooking, came off the hinge and the door shattered. Only 5months old and the insurance cant replace the door and have to wait 5 weeks for a replacement as well as paying for fitting

    Terrible

    1/5
    Delivery was great, all covid safe and well fitted in my kitchen. However the appliances it’s self was terrible, the oven door did not close, the oven whilst on cooking it popped open 3 times on its own. The heat was escaping from the open door that it took nearly 2 hours to cook 30 minute meal! When I spoke to someone about this, there has been other reviews about the same issue and the manufacturer seem to knew that this was a common fault! Very disappointed in the product!

    Poor quality item

    1/5
    I purchased this cooker in December 2019 and at first all seemed well. In March one of the control knobs came off and the oven door did not seem to stay firmly closed when in use. An engineer called and repaired the fault in March 2020, however I noticed when he left that the knob was not in the correct position. As lockdown had just started I did not report it. In June a different control knob came off and again an engineer called and repaired th this. The fault has re-occurred again and I emailed AO.com and requested that they collect it and refund my money. They just asked me to call the company to arrange another repair. Obviously they don't want to collect and refund what is clearly an inferior item. I am now waiting for the company to call me back and in the meantime I am left with a cooker with a grill that is difficult to turn off and I have to turn the cooker off at the mains. Very disappointed with this item.
