"Arrived on time driver was courteous.Appears to be working fine and makes the new kitchen look really nice"
"Bought to replace a 25-year old AEG Competence! Bye-bye old friend!
This Stoves oven is brilliant and a distinct upgrade to our cooking. We both use the oven a lot, and in only a week we have noticed an improvement.
Had yorkshire puds last night - they rose like there was no tomorrow! (ps. don't forget to have the fat searing hot!)
The oven is so quiet by comparison - the venting fan just whispers, we thought it wasn't working at first! The internal heat seems so even and controlled and efficient.
So many main oven settings; our pizzas were perfect with a nice crispy base, key lime pie was spot on, and the lasagne - mmmm! Did I mention the yorkshires?
Bright lights inside, we can now see what's happening! Love the main oven tele-shelves - yes, you do have to be careful with heavy pots, but they are a boon.
I could go on. Yes, there are a few 'design features' that might be criticised, but they are so minor in comparison, and overall such great value for money.
Happy cooking!

"We bought this to replace an oven that was on it's last legs - so it's not surprising that it feels like a huge improvement. There are several little things that stop it being perfect, and that we might have picked up if we'd seen the oven before buying it.
The bluetooth is a waste of time. It doesn't work - apart from for setting the clock. It looked so promising, but quickly because a stream of notifications about lost connections. That seems to be the fault of the app (ZEUS). Don't buy this thinking you'll be able to turn your oven on as you head home - in theory you can operate the bluetooth form 15 meters away but in reality unless you are stood in front of the oven it doesn't connect to your phone.
However the timer is quick and easy to set so the oven can be heating for bread before I have to get up.
There's no fan option for the top oven - so that means heating the larger oven more often or having the top oven at a higher temperature.
The temperature dial for the top oven doesn't have markings showing every 10 or 20 degrees - there are different numbers of dots between each number. So setting an accurate temperature is trickier than it should be. Buying online this wan't obvious - it's not a deal breaker but it would have been so easy to just have this right.
The telescopic shelves only fit the bottom oven - that's not clear from the instructions and it took a couple of minutes to realise that.
The shelves themselves seem very flimsy in comparison to those in our old oven. The shelves move a fair bit when a casserole dish is put on them.
Overall, happy with this purchase, but there are niggles that Stoves could easily sort."

"Very happy with this purchase. Have tested both top and main ovens and both cook nice and evenly. Have always purchased Stoves and so far it still seems to be a good buying decision. Nice looking oven that slid straight into the slot from the previous one. "

"So far so good. Cooks well and has a very clear view through the window of the oven doors!"
