My oven needed replacing and I was looking for one that was bigger inside and preferably self cleaning - this one ticked both of those boxes and price wise for a pyrolitic self cleaning oven, I thought it was very reasonable (I need to try that function yet but based on other reviews I'm hopeful).
It does have a lot of functions which you probably won't use. We've tended to mainly use the turbo grill for things like bacon and sausages and the forced air setting for general cooking and both are great. The turbo grill is fast! The pizza function is good too - no soggy bottoms and perfectly crispy.
I'm still a bit confused on some of the settings - like the baking ones, there is no preheat time and no guidance so I'm assuming that you either need to use the fast preheat first or just give it time to heat up.... I need to experiment!
The spit roast function gave a fantastically crispy chicken, however it leaves little room for anything else in the oven so I suspect we won't really use it. I did manage to do a tray of roasted vegetables in the drip tray underneath thought and these were lovely from being cooked in the meat juices. The rack for this is an odd shape and takes up storage room so it's been discarded to the shed until we next need it!
I have bought an additional shelf direct from Hotpoint as I needed it for baking. The only real downside is that when you pull the shelves out to remove food there is nothing that stops them coming out completely - on my old oven the shelves were on rails and I do miss this.
Overall, so far it's a nice oven that does what I need it to. Would highly recommend.
