Good points

Good Points

  • Excellent for low temperature cooking.
  • Layout positioning is very good, large and simmer burners are positioned at the front.
  • White enamelled surface easy to clean.
  • Controls are positioned on the right side of the cooktop making them less accessible to children.
  • 2 enamel trivets are lightweight and easy to clean in a domestic sink.
  • 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.
  • Need to stir melting chocolate constantly, can catch very quickly.
  • Only 3 out of 4 pots fit comfortably, there is restricted access to some burners.
  • Only OK for pan stability on large burner.
  • Not easy to slide the pans across the trivets.
  • No spill catchment.
  • Trivets cross over burners, so more surface area for spills to burn onto, making it potentially harder to clean.
  • Labelling is printed and may scratch off or fade after prolonged cleaning.
