order placed march and oven fitted March do have given the appliance and company time!! looks amazing and slick, dials retract and overall a very clean modern look just the fact you need to be quite tall to see what temp your cooking on as the number on outside of the dials. operating it however is a different ballgame!! topoven/grill..... takes ages to get to oven temp and longer to cook so just use bottom oven. grill is a total waste of time it heats up but then turns itself off when at temp so cooking stops and then re-turns on when it has cooled slightly.... 35 mins to grill sausages is a joke. oven..... takes a long while to get to temperature but when there it cooks ok takes slightly longer than my previous. however whilst cooking water drips out from underneath door onto cupboard underneath making a puddle which according to hotpoint is normal practice as the condensation has to escape?!!!! hmmm new to me and one I have never found before. never again I am already having to source a new one 3 months after purchasing otherwise I'll soon have to replace the underneath cupboard and part of my flooring. stay clear or learn the hard way like I've had too.

This oven looks good but cooks bad. The main oven takes AGES - over 45 mins - to get to a temperature of anywhere near 200 degrees and never reaches its maximum temperature!. At the same time, the oven leaks heat. What happens is the control knobs get too hot to touch, any plates put to 'warm' in the top oven get too hot to touch and the outside fascia gets too hot to touch. It's dangerous, in fact. The control knobs themselves are really hard to read unless you are about 6 foot tall with excellent eyesight, because the writing on them is on top of and all around the knobs! I should have done much more research before purchasing because many reviews on other websites selling this item report problems with the oven reaching temperature and leaking heat and the knobs getting too hot to touch! My first and last Hotpoint purchase. On complaining to AO, they have passed on responsibility to Hotpoint. Hotpoint say they have to send an engineer out, and if no fault is found, will charge me £50!

Looks better than the picture. Has more functions than my last double oven. Very quiet. Only drawback is the setting are on the knobs and would have been on the cooker face but I just needs to get use to it.

Only been using for a couple of days but the oven seems very good. Would have given 5 stars but for the difficulty in seeing the readings on the dials, although I did know about this from reading other reviews prior to purchasing. Extra shelf provided which is very useful. Would recommend this item.

I have used AO now for my last 4 big purchases and every time found their service brilliant and all the products competitively priced and in three of the occasions cheaper than elsewhere and once the same price. Delivery is always no problem and kept up to date every step of the way. This oven was a fantastic price, looks good and easy to use! Highly recommend AO.com

This oven is excellent value for money and is exceeding our expectations so far. The multi functions available are easily used and we are completely happy with it. I am a returning customer and will be back.

My old cooker gave up while we were in lock down A.O delivered the next day the hot point DD2844cix built in double oven I now realise how bad my old cooker was this one is very easy to use cooks evenly all over all works great only one down side is the numbers on it he dials because they are t on the cooker I can’t really see them apart from that it’s great

Pleased with oven. Only downside, as mentioned by many others, dials for temp and other settings cannot be seen,we believe that this is due to using same design for built under (dials would be visible )and built in at eye level.
