    Hello,

    I have a problem with my aforementioned oven. Basically cooking anything properly requires whacking it on full and doubling the cooking times.

    The top (grill) element and the bottom (hidden) element do get hot. But the sides don’t, does this model have side elements that might be broken?

    Could be the thermostat though, I suppose but I’ll let you experts decide.

    Cheers

    Steve

    No….no side elements. IIRC the top element is a double one, the outer coil only is the top oven element. If this is getting hot along with the concealed bottom element on the oven setting then the stat is favourite.

    You can check this of course with a cheap oven thermometer…not strictly accurate but certainly ball-park close enough to prove the point.

    Thanks Clive, I’m in the process of sourcing an oven thermometer to check just that. In the meantime, anyone know a rough cost for the replacement part (if it is the stat that needs replacing)
