Thanks very much

Just what I needed. Looking to buy new freestanding cooker.

[@michellemagee8825]

When measuring the depth of a cooker, in my case a gas cooker, how much space do I need to include for the gas hose behind..obviously the cooker isn't going to be fully flush to the wall!?? If you could answer this question question. ..that would be great.

[@lords-electrical]

I would normally allow another 2-3 cm but have a look at the back of the cooker you are thinking of buying as some of them will have an extra lip on the top to allow for the cooker to be pushed back to the wall.

[@michellemagee8825]

@@lords-electrical Thankyou very much for replying

[@michellemagee8825]

@lords-electrical Thanks for replying.. Another quick question!..the steel racks in a oven ..I prefer to take them out , especially when cleaning..the ones that are screwed in...makes it difficult to clean...and adjust the shelf heights...what is your view on this please!?

[@sumonrahman8965]

Would you please describe how economical would be the electric cooker for the business purpose then gas or some other type… would it be cheaper or not please

[@anonymousanonymous8929]

Thank you. This presentation was very helpful. Tell me is it true that Eye level grill gas cooker are better than other free standing gas cookers? Especially if you have back pain. Thank you.

[@laura-sandy1492]

This was really informative and helpful, thank you. Just one question: I'm in the market for a new cooker and would really like an electric one, with separate, raised rings, not a flat plate, as well as a fan oven. However, I have heard that these types of electric cookers with raised rings typically do not have any fan ovens. Do you know what the reason for this may be? I would much prefer this style cooker as I'm totally blind and it's just much easier to cook securely and with confidence when I can tell which ring I'm on...

[@wakeupuk3860]

What a superb explaination of the up to date information about free standing cookers, I live alone now and my old family 10 years old cooker main oven has died so I am looking to see what I need to replace it with, could not have asked for a better. I am also an ex teacher, trainer and instructor and Iyou certainly know how to put over information as well.

[@lords-electrical]

Thanks very much for this feedback, glad it was useful for you.

[@Marcus-oy6up]

I love to know the main differnces between the cleaning types and what to go for / avoid

[@differentname8051]

Looking for my daughter, think duel fuel. Induction hob and gas oven? Any ideas on which brand

[@ZeynepAslan-cd9cr]

Can you please advise about rangemaster dual cookers . ? Free standing ones .

[@davetherave303]

So I don't need a gap on the sides then? as I read you do need this for air flow which seemed odd as the its usually coming from the back? And pictures of most ovens are all firmly inside no gaps. Of course the space on sides is good for storing things too.

[@lords-electrical]

You don't normally need to allow space down the side of the appliance just the back that needs ventilation.

[@davetherave303]

@lords-electrical thanks good to know :)

[@nascentnaomie]

Can one just plug it in? How will I know which ones I can just easily install

[@philipharrison4943]

This video was very informative presentation was excellent it also covered important information if what to look out for which was good to know.thank you.

[@lords-electrical]

Glad it was helpful for you, thanks for the feedback

[@1943klt]

WARNING no mention about do they have a good old fashioned grill pan with handle which Beko no longer supply.

[@joob6729]

What would you think of the rangemaster classic induction 60cm. Thanks

[@lords-electrical]

The quality on the Rangemaster products is normally very good. I must admit i haven't seen one in the flesh but if they are as good as the full size range cookers then it should be a great product.

[@ulkerciragoz]

Just amazing! Its clarify all I need ! Thank you!

[@lords-electrical]

That's great to hear the video was helpful for you, thanks for the feedback

[@GrumpyMonk]

Im looking at two gas cookers and both are very similar. They both have a wok burner, one is 3kW and the other is 3.5kW. Does the 0.5kW really make a big difference for wok cooking? The higher power burner also has an oven that goes up to 275°C while the lower power one goes to 250°C. Does this matter for cooking the basic oven dishes?

[@lords-electrical]

It won't really make a difference on the oven, as you will rarely cook anything above 220c in the oven anyway. Also the 0.5kw will not really make that much difference as well, again you will rarely have the wok burner on maximum for any length of time.

[@GrumpyMonk]

@@lords-electrical Awesome thanks that's what my gut was telling me as well but it's good to get some confirmation. The less powerful cooker looks a lot better and the grills are a lot sturdier. I think in every day use, I'll prefer that. Thanks for your help!

[@zany1616]

the oven (60cm width) I'm looking at curry says the minimum distance required is 65mm to the sides; does that mean I shouldn't get it if the space is 62.5cm wide?

[@xxking-beastxxyt9001]

Your cookers or what we like to call stoves over here in the USA are much smaller. We have similar to those appliances but we call them apartment size.

[@pez4]

Same deal in Mexico, people wonder why I'm always buying "small" appliances but to me it seems everyone's got huge ones! lol

[@chubeye1187]

Stove is used in the UK, my mother always used it. As for the size, everything is small here, especially our houses

[@matthewbeattie406]

Thanks for the video. I received new Hotpoint gas freestanding cooker today, only to realise it juts out a few centimetres past the worktops, as the copper gas pipe and gas hose at the back take up space. Also, it turns out the old cooker it was replacing was 59cm in depth. Are there any brands of cooker which might be shallower or recessed more at the back, that you can recommend?

[@steveandsherilyn7543]

I have a max budget of £400 for a 60cm cooker. In your opinion, are there any brands that I should avoid and are there any brands you would recommend? And in todays financial climate, which would you recommend between gas and electric for economy purposes? Cheers.

[@louiss4054]

What did you get in the end

[@susanmackenzie1560]

Hi, My son is buying a 600mm wide standalone cooker to replace a narrower one. We cut the excess worktop and now have a gap of EXACTLY 600mm. Will the new cooker fit in? Some people have said an actual 600mm cooker measurements are usually 595mm but it doesn't state that in the online manual. As an expert, could you tell me if this is usually the case?

[@nohandle474]

Hi, do you have any recommendations for a standard 60cm cooker that has an electric over but a gas grill and hob? I really want the gas grill and hob but a modern oven? Ty

[@lindacooper-yeoman7363]

How many oven racks come supplied with a hotpoint HD5G00KCW/UK DOUBLE OVEN GAS COOKER ?

[@johncumiskey672]

Hi , Don't know if you can help me. Fitted a gas cooker. It's old ! But never been used before. Hob works fine , however the oven won't light up . I don't have any instruction booklet . It's a Whirlpool, single oven with grill at top, and burner beneath plate in bottom. I would appreciate any help. Kind regards, John I would appreciate any

Hello! I always like your videos. Could I request a video on home carbonation appliances, you know the ones you can make sodas with. Won't mention any brand names :)

[@differentname8051]

Thanks bud, useful info. Do you deliver?

[@adamaadam9281]

What sizes are those pls?

[@lords-electrical]

Sizes do vary between 50 / 55 and 60cm wide. Some of the older cookers that Cannon used to make were 53.5cm but that size is no longer around.

Witch is more reliable eletric or gas.

[@michelles2299]

Didn't know witches came in gas or electric though they were broom powered 🙏

He is a good boy.

[@adrianocardiff7828]

Are there plugs or need to be wired?😜

[@lords-electrical]

The majority of freestanding cookers will need to be hardwired. Just check the instructions online of the cooker before buying though.

[@elago98]

I wasn't even aware about this kind of appliance

[@ohyeahyeah7397]

same i usually just rub sticks together and cook food that way

[@sedoniadragotta8323]

Electric is cheaper that's why it's more popular cos it's a rip of prices that puts ppl of gas. But gas is better than electric . The best way to cook is on a wood burner .

[@kayirajohnbosco6792]

How much money my boss

[@jonathansims2862]

Cheap £150 cookers are rubbish too small and too basic buy something more expensive last longer and better quality 👌😊
