The cooker looks a lot better in the picture than reality; the knobs are quite large and old fashioned looking, and whilst using the hob we've accidentally moved the oven dials several times. The 4 fan oven settings seem over complicated and don't make any difference from what we have noticed.

Very disappointed with this cooker. It takes easily 20 min to reach 200c and why is there no handle for the grill?? Burnt my fingers twice and dropped the grill pan on the floor. Would love to send cooler back.

Nice looking cooker but a few quirks that are puzzling. Why are all cookers shorter than kitchen work surfaces? My kitchen worktop heights were determined by the height of the side panels (90cm). The work surface adds to that. This was a standard height for the company. I got this cooker because it was the only one taller than 90 cm but it still sits below the work surface. Why do you need to switch one of the functions on for the timer to work? If you use the timer a fan switches on before the oven switches on. So for example if you set a delay of 1.5h, the fan is on for that time and then for the cooking time. The Controls are a bit bulky and you have to lean over them to use the hob.

Early days, but an efficient cooker. The vents at the back of the hob are great detail. Helps to remove excess steam. Which will no doubt help the hob (our last oven had a exhaust point for the oven lower down, potentially why our hob failed, due to steam getting into the hob)and my face when opening the oven door. Ceramic hob is powerful, and might be as powerful as the induction hob we use to have. Little red light on the top shows that one of the zones is still hot to the touch. Which is handy as our two boys are fascinated by our new cooker. So this lets us know very quickly if they have managed to turn the hob on, or the residual heat is too high for them to come close. Banging cheese on toast from the grill over the weekend aswell. Helps that the tray for the grill is lovely and wide. Fits a family of four cheese on toast nicely. It feels like quality, even the oven doors close nicely. We did have a minor issue with the clock display not working quite right. Ao customer service has been faultless in helping us, a Zanussi engineer was quick, polite and very professional. Very pleased all round with the product, Ao customer service, and the engineer. Thank you, have had alot of bad luck with electrical appliance retailers in the past. Quite refreshing.

This is a nice cooker and seems well made that we bought to replace our old Belling Format. My criticisms are that it would be nicer if the lip around the hob was flush (it is about 2mm high) and the knobs are very big. Also because of the steam vents for the oven at the back of the hob you really need to have an externally venting extractor fan or you kitchen will get very steamy.

So far so good, hob and oven both work well, keeps the wife busy so I can watch the football on telly

good value did well in the which survey

This cooker is brilliant, the main oven has 3 shelves and has air fry function and a steam function as well as the usual fan on the main oven meaning that everything you cook is cooked perfectly. The ceramic hob heats up immediately. Overall the cooker looks smart and is easy to use
