Fantastic cooker - used converted to LPG
5/5
I had selected a different cooker from this which went out of stock just before I was able to place the order
I am actually very glad that I changed to this cooker. I needed a cooker for conversion to LPG. This cooker actually had a conversion kit with it, contrary to the website listing, but conversion was easily done by my LPG engineer, and all burners work very well. The double oven is fantastic, and there is a small heat circulation fan in the top oven which doesn't affect the gas burner, but ups the oven performance for roasts/roast potatoes. My previous LPG cooker was a narrow cooker, the standard 600mm width of this cooker means that the top oven is good for almost all eventualities, with space for 2 trays side by side, the bottom oven is huge, and will no doubt earn its keep at Christmas. The range of burners on the top hob is superb, with the bonus compared to the oven I had originally selected, being the wok burner, which is superb - both for woks and rapid pressure cooking. As other reviewers have said, the simmer burner would be better placed at the back, but this is a minor point. Other reviews have also mentioned that the pan supports are narrow and leave pans relatively unstable; I suspect Hotpoint may have noted this as the pan supports on my cooker appear to have a modified design, and function well for pans of all sizes. Overall a fantastic cooker, makes me wish I'd replaced my old one sooner, a pleasure to cook on, and due to the varied burners and 2 ovens, more economical. Note that this review is for this model converted to LPG.
