"This is our second cooker form this brand its great It would help if it came with 3 shelves . I cant think of anything I dont like about it. "
"I was searching for a 55cm cooker and this is most certainly tops. We are so, so pleased. Fantastic looking and well built. Even the quality of the packaging was impressive - including plenty of timber battens and polystyrene, so little chance of transit damage.
The ceramic hob plates have good heat control and I can simmer/steam veg easily. I like it that the cast iron cover has a micro switch that isolates the hob plates, so they can't be accidently switched on should the cover be down - I found they actually switch the hob plates off as you lower the lid (but you should of course leave the lid up and let the ceramic top cool before closing!).
The ovens have great control - a bright light in the main oven and while the top over isn't a "fan oven", there is a fan that blows over the top of oven and out over the facia and control dials (to cool the facia and control dials). Fans are quiet and I don't have to turn up the radio as I did with my old cooker!
I've played around with the oven timer so it will switch on and off automatically - works well and easy to programme.
I'm looking forward to saving on electric, compared to my old cooker, which tended to heat up the kitchen as much as the ovens!!"

"This is a good quality cooker. Large control knobs and a well thought out panel layout. Cooking performance has been great. Much better than the gas oven that this replaced. I like the drop down lid that protects the ceramic hob when not in use. I feel this was good value."

"Love this new cooker! So difficult to find a cooker to fit a less than 60 centimetre gap and also with a programmable timer (Not a minute minder which is a totally different thing). Having trawled through pages of cookers, Stoves came to the rescue. Great features include the afforementioned timer. A pull down cover for the ceramic hob which doubles as a work surface, a really efficient oven and grill (have not tried the top oven yet but I am sure it will be good). The ceramic plates take longer to warm up than our old cooker but it does mean that we can simmer properly for the 1st time. It did take us a while to work out how to fit the handle on the grill pan and ended up consulting google!
A great product and excellent service from AO"

"I have had this make of cooker before found to be reliable, previously from another company which was not without various faults. There's only one problem with this one it's classed a decorative! strange like ghosting paint marks on front panel where control knobs are, other than that works fine. Found out when registering could of had cheaper well it is what it is!!"
