Yes, I suppose if it doesn't work it must be hard to break.

I will concede that in our house, i'm the only one who is allowed to sharpen as MrsStan puts a different edge on when she uses it.

Eh?
Sorry, I meant induction is more controllable than ceramic. Thanks for pointing that out, I will edit my post.

I`m now tied between induction and gas, my current cooker is halogen and although I`ve got used to it it`s a bloody nightmare, pans take ages to boil and once they do there`s no stopping them, the contents either burn or boil over!
Mixed reviews on the worktops and some good points, might re-think that and see what else is out there.
Just another quick question for the kitchen fitters here - does a double "built under" oven need a cabinet? I`ll be using the 600mm space where my cooker is now, but not sure if these ovens need a cabinet or just stand on their own feet which are then hidden by the plinth?

Miss Goodbody has an implement similar to that., But hers is shorter, squatter, made of rubber, and makes a buzzing noise.Nah, you want a steel, it's real!

You'll be telling us it has a regulator on the end of it too. Does she have a nice worktop with a scribed butt?

Yes they do. They normally sit on a shelf within the cabinet.

I did yes, but my kitchen isn`t big enough to take one, it`s only 11` by 7` so would probably take up most of the room!

Oh really? Rumour has it her chopper is a thing to behold... @Fnaar is often found in a quandary. Right now, he needs to be found in a quarry, and get speccy's worktops sorted out.

Once upon a time she used to say "cor Ian" but now she's for Mica...taste change. That's why it's good to have a slate worktop - it can be wiped clean.Are you suggesting that Ms Goodbody is really a pre-op Mr Goodbody?
Ooops! the topic has just fallen off the edge...sorry. I blame the fnaarster.

Range cookers like Aga and shïte are great if you're a posh middle-class nobber, but for practicality and cooking decent stuff they're rubbish. Granite is still really heavy.

My builder had to ring up for re-enforcements to carry the granite slabs up to me flat 5 burly blokes only just manages a 3m slab.
My kitchen is maybe a bit bigger than speccy's but I decided I could spare 1000mm for a range type cooker. ie a heavy looking good class normal cooker, not an Aga or suchlike. The 900mm ones are cooker-and-a half wide and it is nice having the extra width
