Too loud, but cooks well. Returned.
3/5
Looks and cooks well, but cooling process (switching off after using) is far too long and noisy. The fan runs on full speed for 40 minutes. So if you have kitchen - dinner or open plan living, it makes it impossible to have a relaxing meal, conversation or even listen to the radio. Very tiring and annoying. Spoke to Hotpoint customer service and they insisted it is intended. Returned as I couldn't stand the noise. Wouldn't recommend.
