My wife has been going on for months about how bad our oven and hobs are, I finally got around to doing something about it when after 6 hours of cooking the Sunday roast was still raw. I purchased a brand new Indesit Fan assisted oven with ceramic hobs from Curry's which arrived yesterday. This thing is such a dream to cook on (yes I do cook every now and again) the fan assisted oven distributes the heat evenly so you are less likely to burn the food. I cooked one of my favourite recipes Chicken En Croute (recipe and pictures to follow soon) which only took 45 minutes to cook as opposed to the usual 1hr and a half. The hobs are also great compared to the stone hobs we used to have that took 10 to 15 minutes just to heat up, with the ceramic hobs the heat is there instantly just like gas.

If you are interested in a new oven and hobs Curry's offer free delivery on the Indesit FI31MK64 Ceramic Hobs and Oven package for £329.99. For an extra £54 they will also install it for you and take away your old one for you. Its worth noting however if you do not have the proper electric sockets available they will not be able to wire them in for you and you will need to hire an electrician to put in a plug socket near the oven which takes a standard 3 pin fuzzed house plug. Also note that when they install the hob (and they will warn you), the formica work tops are likely to crack as they pull out your old hobs. This in many cases can't be helped if you are lucky enough to afford granite,stone or real wooden work tops this shouldn't be a problem.
