Customer Product Review - Freestanding Upright Chef Gas Oven GBC5486W


2 star


The oven is such an overall disappointment. I am not at all happy with the different style trivet (? the 2 rectangular raised components that the saucepans rest on when using the hob) Although they look good the design is very poor. When heating a coffee pot for instance, they are extremely dangerous as it is tricky to balance the pot over the metal support. Also the additional raised trivet bit over the wok burner is so inconvenient as I can no longer momentarily rest hot trays or other hot items from the oven safely on the hob for fear of them sliding off, this is annoying in the extreme not to mention very dangerous! My previous chef stove had a single trivet over all four burners that was by far easier to use and maintain. I am also disappointed with the 'fan' function on the oven. It definately does speed up proceedings, particularly when I have a full load baking, BUT the heat is still uneven, with definate 'hot spots' along the front and left hand side of the oven. So I still have to constantly be vigilant and move items around while they are baking. And finallly it would be so nice when buying a brand new oven, to have 3 shelves supplied instead of the given two!
