Good points

Good Points

  • Excellent for low temperature cooking.
  • Very good for high temperature cooking.
  • Good for ease of use.
  • Pan support is good on all burners, except small burner.
  • Wok and small pan trivet supplied.
  • Number grading on controls for accurate heat setting selection.
  • Spill catchment is deep enough to contain any spills, with separation down the middle.
  • Burner surround is moulded and fairly easy to clean. All burners have a raised edge so liquid spills are less likely to run into workings.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK for turn down performance.
  • Layout positioning is only OK, wok burner is positioned at the back and the simmer and medium burners are positioned at the front.
  • Only 3 out of 4 pots fit comfortably, there is restricted access to some burners.
  • Need to use a trivet for small burner, only OK stability for a small pan or coffee pot.
  • Controls are positioned at the front of the cook top making them accessible to children.
  • Stainless steel surface requires extra attention when cleaning, can smudge and scratch.
  • Trivets have a slight rough cast iron finish making them harder to wipe over.
  • Labelling is printed and may scratch off or fade after prolonged cleaning.
