Belling Lincoln 100cm Induction Range Cooker – can the glass hob be replaced?

[mcuk1978]

Hello all,

I have the above cooker, model 444444062, and the glass top is chipped and scratched to all hell. It’s really annoying, as the brickslip tiles on the wall have caused this through tiny pieces falling on the glass and going unnoticed (ergo scratching and scuffing the glass during use).

My main question is whether this can be replaced or not, and if so, how much am I looking to shell out? The cooker was £1600 new, so I’m hoping something can be done. We are going to install a backsplash and seal the tiles to prevent any future damage, and although it’s mostly cosmetic it’s kicking off my (genuine) OCD something fierce haha

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, especially those in the trade who may be able to source the replacement part

short answer yes it can be replaced like any part
then the problem is the only trade site that lists the part says the price is about £500. dont know the retail price and that price may not be current or it may be obsolete

suggest you ring Stoves and ask them if the glass hob is available and at what price

then all you need is a local engineer to fit it

but it could work out almost half the cost of the cooker

can you claim as accidental damage on your household insurance ?

Thanks. Possibly, but I’d have to look into it. Might just have to get a silicone cover in the long run and live with it. I’ll give Stoves a ring on Monday
