I have heard that they aren't that great
Sort of like the fridges. They are beautiful-retro-joy to look at, but they are actually a bit shit when it comes to the working etc.

useful pointer
they are quite expensive, but my folks offered me some cash, so was considering one.

this shopping for a cooker business is driving me mental

Apple do function as well as form though
albeit at a price.

True

But I find I-Tunes soooo infuriating that I sometimes can't breath with the rage!

Could you not
just get a pile of sticks and a match, and go back to the old way of cooking?

No, probably not.

Well, buy a Miele then. You'll have to take out a second mortgage, but it'll still be going once you've paid it off.

It is a bit of a ballache shopping for cookers and fridges and other kitchen thingys
What about Hotpoint - their stuff is great and lasts well! :D

the other option is a hotpoint one
which is about £300 cheaper than the smeg.

You should start a poll - I would vote smeg

because I'm shallow and like pretty things
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 5 Jan 2010, 15:25, Reply)

I am also shallow and like pretty things
but I'd probably go for a cheaper cooker and spend the rest of the money on shoes or booze or pizza! :D
