Bad Points
- Cooktop may not have even heat distribution when using flexi zone due to different wattages – the heating is uneven.
- Stainless steel frame around cooktop may require extra cleaning attention due to smudges and fingerprints.
- Labelling on cooktop controls relating to each zone is faint and difficult to view due to reflective stainless steel.
- Large bar sits above the controls – may obstruct view of controls for some people. May need to bend over to identify which control relates to each burner.
- Possible that number settings around control dials will fade over time.
- Grill tray can easily slide off supporting shelf when it's pulled out.
- Grill tray does not slide into shelf support – it sits on the oven shelf.
- Need to ensure baking tray is aligned under grill element.
- The grill shelf has stoppers that prevent the shelf from being pulled out accidentally. The grill does not tilt down and has a large surface area. A grill rack insert is supplied and accommodates small items. Height adjustable and stable – ample grill positions.
- Oven baking tray and shelves are difficult to clean in a domestic sink.
- Oven controls are positioned at the front and children can easily access them.
- Labelling on oven control dials is clear but somewhat obscured by additional handle above controls.
