Thanks Dick.There is only about £100 difference in price so if a Radient one is better, then that looks to be the one to go for.I just wondered if anyone had experienced any difficulties with this type of cooker.

She had to buy special absolutely FLAT bottomed glass/ceramic cook pots to use on it. The burner areas never yellowed at all. I understand the newer ones don't need the special pots and DO turn yellow. It has to be cleaned with a special cleaner...something similar to 'Soft Scrub' or it will scratch. Mom loved hers. I'd never have one because I can't use my cast iron on it. I also 'inherited' all mom's cast iron when she bought her stove! |

It drove me bonkers (mad), all our pans were for gas hobs and useless on ceramic hobs. I sold that oven and hob and had a gas hob and electric oven. Fab! Hapis Iawn. EWIS |
