My advice gas hob, electric fan assisted double oven. Doubt you will get a free standing double oven though.

I've had no problem with my Creda oven, but then I've hardly used it at all in the last several years. For me (on my own) it's usually far quicker and easier for me to use my fan-assisted combi microwave (and no, I don't zap everything to death ). However, he does have a point about the move to Poland.

Anyway, I'll concur with everyone else - gas hob and electric oven is the way to go. I'll also concur with the idea of buying Bosch or Neff. They're certainly not cheap though so probably don't fit the spec in this case.

Don't say I didn't warn you then

Just for the record I attended 100s of quality meetings for the above cookers (all made by Indesit) and management couldn't stop talking about Bosch and reaching their quality.
Indesit have got no chance now that those products are made in Poland.
Just before the place closed we had the Polish made ones in our QA and they were awful.
We thought the British made ones had cheap parts but the Polish ones were/are worse.
We even thought about calling in the authorities but also scared that we would lose what was fought for in our redundancy.
I know for absolute fact that cookers went out of the British factory that were a danger to the public.
Theres even an electronic model that I programmed with revision 33 software that actually worked.
All the 1000s of cookers that went out with R1 to 32 didn't work properly eg when turning on the double grill the single grill would come on and vice versa OR the numbers on the knob went from 1 to 4 but worked the opposite way round.

Its your money, make your decision, mine is Bosch because I never came across one in our QA that was faulty.

Thanks for your insight, I think that my washing machine is made by Indesit and that is rather dodgy as well.

Having seen the price of the Bosch ones I would certainly get one or Miele when my kitchen is done. However this seems overkill for a stop-gap oven for a couple of years.
