    cant get correct size for thismachine, should be 1600watts, only one that is the same physical size is 2500watts. (people who supply this element say it is ok, but im not so sure)

    What is the cooker model? You forgot to say.

    I certainly wouldn’t recommend a 2.5kw ….it will draw more current. Is it a built in oven? double or single cavity? what is the circuit protected by?

    Typical huh? you ask one question & get four in return 😆

    Okay……this was annoying me, so I phoned the spares dept of stoves for you!

    There is apparantly a choice of four elements depending on the serial number (Date of production)

    The good news is that they are all 2.5kw.

    The phone number for glen/dimplex (Stoves) is 0151426701111

    GOOD LUCK 😀

    Okay okay…..I have to own up!


    It was me 😳 ….I fitted the 1.6kw


    Just kidding of course, but you must learn to let it go :rotfl: besides, the customer will love all that extra oven heat.

    Mind you, I guess you are gonna get the blame now for burnt cakes :rolls:
