Hisense HDE3211BWUK 60cm Electric Cooker with Ceramic

Bought this as a replacement cooker for the one we had go on us upon arrival soon realised that this although a good cooker soon started to show us that it was going to be a nightmare to install firstly had all the correct cabling and everything to go with it but when wiring it up you had to firstly make sure that the cable would bend and 10mm is not the easiest by any stretch of the imaginationeven if you are quite competent at wiring this is a challenge even when I had someone come out to do it they said it was a bad design although the cooker itself was very good within 15 mins he had it in and up and running which was a bonus and the electrictian didn’t charge a rediculous among for the service so all was good when we came to use it we found the hobs are very quick to heat up and cook something just an example done an egg sarnie from turning the hob on to sitting down to eat it not 10 mins had passed so that was excellent to start each hob heats up just as quick and will easyily boil 1.5 LTRs of water in 6 to 7 mins I.e water for boiling potatoes/veg very quick compared to traditional gas which can take 20 mins so have to say quite impressive the job dials go round to no 6 which normally you just get an increasing scale that resembles an arrow they are very smooth and pricise well manufactured the top oven is a traditional which you can use in a number of ways top heat bottom heat or both have used the grill which seems slow but it does cook toast evenly and to a good colour the oven itself can be used if you don’t want to use the main which we will come to in a bit it heats up as you would expect temp range from 60 degrees all the way up to 250 degrees and you have the added benefit of a light in there to help with seeing what is going on now for the main oven which is fan assisted this is quite good it does give the heat required but I do have an oven temp gauge and put this in and it does seem to be about 10 degrees out which although not bad is worth the mention as it could be critical if yo need food to cook at a certain temperature but I also have a lava stone which I put in my oven and this helps I use mine to cook pizza and bread which is fantastic but that’s on another order which I did back to the cooker, the over all build quality is some what flimsy it does damage very easily so you will need to be careful with it but it is sturdy and will not tip too easy but it does come with the wall anchors should you wish to use them between the 2 ovens you do have 3 shelves which you can place where you want for your style of set-up over all the size of this item is good but if you have a galley kitchen please check the size before hand and make sure it will fit I would say that this is good value for money and probably better than some of the other brands but first impression is that it’s going to be a good investment as time goes I will add to this review just to elaborate on how good or bad it is but so far it has a thumbs up from me
