    Some niggles

    3/5
    Main cooling fan is quite loud as others have mentioned. Also the main oven heating fan was loose so made a horrendous noise when turned on. Luckily removing a couple screws gave me access and I could tighten it. Still disappointing though but at least we didn’t have to uninstall it. No comment on reliability long term as it’s weeks old. Other than the niggles it feels well made.

    Nice cooker

    4/5
    This is my second one of these cookers. The first one was delivered on time and unpacked by the very pleasant and helpful delivery drivers. Unfortunately, the oven door came off, so they returned it. Same thing happened with the replacement, but this time I accepted the order, not wishing to wait even longer without a cooker, fixed the hinge myself whilst awaiting engineer visit. The cooker itself is fine. I have now used it intensively and like it. The induction hob works well, but as another reviewer has said, is quite sensitive to pans being moved whilst hob is operating. All controls for the hob are touch sensitive, no control knobs for the hob. I have been caught out a few times by inadvertently engaging the child safety lock. It helps if you find and download the user manual, only basic instructions supplied with the unit. The main oven works well, possibly takes a bit longer to reach temperature than our previous cooker. It is staying nice and clean internally at the moment. Cooling fan runs for some time after cooking is finished, but I don't find this noisy at all. I do find the beeper on the oven timer is almost inaudible, so perhaps I need a hearing check ! The air fryer feature is intriguing. I don't think that it's a substitute for a dedicated air fryer, but it does cook oven chips very nicely. I've only used the grill a few times, but it works as expected. Similarly, used the top oven while I was sorting out the bottom oven door issue, and this works as expected, not a fan oven obviously. The glossy black finish is easy to keep clean, with no annoying loose pieces of trim as found on our previous 10 year old Zanussi cooker, which we replaced because the induction hob on that one eventually failed, nice cooker otherwise.

    Quick hob, slow oven

    4/5
    As a previous Belling induction hob / electric cooker owner I had high expectations. I was a little concerned over people's reviews across various sites saying the fan is exceptionally noisy but I wouldn't say it's excessive. The hob is instant, but if you move the pan back and forth they can turn off which gets frustrating. The oven has several controls. I've only used two. The air fryer - it's a good all round cook but without the convenience of it being less time like those for countertops. The main oven - cooks well but it takes its time. I've had to turn most things up past 200 to get them to cook anywhere near timeframes I'm used to. I'm yet to bake in it but I'm thinking there may be a few test runs to get it right.

    Unexpected fan but pleased overall

    4/5
    Ordered this to replace a gas cooker and finally switch to induction hob. It's a nice looking cooker. The induction hob is easy to use and has a useful power boost function. The Air frier setting on the oven works well and I've successfully baked bread on the normal fan oven setting. The cooling fan comes on when the oven or grill starts to get hot - I wasn't expecting this and it initially seemed rather noisy with cold air blowing into the kitchen, but I got used to it. There seems to be a problem with the grill as even on full it wasn't very hot. I phoned to register the guarantee with Belling and they were quick to organise an engineer to come and have a look at it next week. Overall I'm very pleased with it and it was reasonably priced compared with other induction cookers.

    Happy

    Looks great, great functionality, only slight downside is that it’s quite noisy (the cooling down fan at end of cooking and also the oven door closing)

    Pros and cons

    4/5
    It’s a good overall cooker but my goodness the ovens take 15 minutes maybe even more to get to 200°c. I like the air fry tray a lot which is something I didn’t think I’d use when I bought it but it’s amazing to put chips in and other bits, it’s also faired well in the dishwasher too.

    Great service from AO, manufacturer has a few red flags but it’s a great cooker

    4/5
    I bought this for mum as a gift to her moving home and she loves it, her vision is slightly impaired so the big dials and handles are great for her. She has been showing off her skills with the air fryer function in the oven and it’s super easy to clean. The only downside is this is the 3rd cooker AO had to send as the first one had missing parts and the second well… the oven door fell off in the first week. 3rd times a charm!
