Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK for turn down test.

  • Pan slides easily on glass surface when stirring, need to keep pan within the cooking zone.
  • Saucepan/pan larger than 21cm in diameter may not be efficient.
  • Larger cooking zone at the rear, reduces easy access when manipulating the food.
  • Controls must be kept free of grease and moisture otherwise they will not respond to touch.
