Reviewing: Shame about the missing lettering

This is a nice looking Smeg oven with a good set of functions, but after a few years of use it has become unusable due to the lettering wearing away around the knobs. Smeg now tell me I should only clean with warm soapy water, but that''s not what it said in my manual, so I have used a liquid spray ...

Reviewing: poor quality

Bottom oven in my smeg has failed three times, first the timer broke, second with thermostat, not sure what this time, but its only a few years old and the main oven won''t heat. Don''t buy. Similar comments to others regarding how easy their gas hobs scratch too....

Reviewing: SMEG SCA504x outer glass door shattered

My review is for a SMEG Model no. SCA504x which is a single oven and top hotplate. Yesterday after finishing cleaning the trays in my daughter''''s oven, I pushed the door back up from the middle of the handle and the whole thing came off and the outer glass shattered everywhere. The oven was cold ...

Reviewing: DON''T by SMEG

Please anyone looking to buy a SMEG oven do NOT do it!!! Complete waste of a lot of money. We paid over £700 for our oven, it was one of the ones from the self cleaning range....what a load of C.R.A.P. It is not even 3 years old, we have replaced the theromostat and the inner glass has ...

Reviewing: Fan Element gone after 14-months

After just after a year the fan element has gone on our oven also, for the cost of the oven its very disappointingg indeed. On top of that we have also got a problem with the cooker hood, the bulbs blew, but even after replacing them the lights are still not working!?! Maybe its me or maybe there ...

Reviewing: Smeg Quality

Bought this oven just over 2 years ago. Although not heavily used the main oven circular element has already failed. I do not consider this acceptable given the low usage. My previous Belling cooker gave sterling service for 18 years requiring only 1 repair to oven door springs. Should have known ...

Reviewing: Looks good on the outside, but poor performance.

The fan stays on for a long time after the double oven has switched off. I know, I know that its a cooling fan and its supposed to say on for a few minutes to cool the oven but my fan stays on for 1.00 - 1.30 hours. Its crazy. The build quality is fine and the outside of the oven is easy to clean, ...

Reviewing: Disappointing Purchase

I bought a DO8CSS built-in Smeg double oven in June 2003. Just after a year the thermostats in both ovens needed replacing at a cost of £150. Six months after that the top oven/grill door shattered and fell to the floor. Having already spent money purchasing the oven and then paying to ...
