Thanks thats helpful not one of the people I spoke to knew this and this includes Zanussi UK, the seller and Exertis the supposed distributor..
Thats exactly what I had arrived at after weeks of searching, however I have asked Currys where I can get spares from and see what they come back with.
We have an Everhot 100i which we inherited with our property. They are clearly a quality product that would last many years, but do have some notable pros and cons. I was worried about running costs so we did an experiment and found that keeping the oven in ‘twilight mode’ uses very little electricity and in fact the more you use the oven the more economical the device is compared to a regular electric oven. Snag is you do have to plan ahead if you want to use the oven as going from twighlight mode to say 180 degrees may take an hour and longer if you want breadmaking temps. The more baking and breadmaking you do the better owning an Everhot will be. Unlike an AGA because the Everhot relies on space age insulation, there is very little heat given off by the Range, which is good in terms of power consumption. I would say the induction hob is an essential option if you were to buy one, it would be foolhardy to just rely on the hotplates, although for preparing a whole dinner party the hotplates are good. If I had to be brutally honest I probably wouldnt choose to buy one as they are very very expensive, but we live with ours pretty well, in fact I have never had such nicely cooked poultry ever before !
It it had of been an AGA I would probably have sold it off, as their philosophy doesnt sit well with me at all, in fact it is annoying when people come round and say “oh you have an ASA” !It was Zanussi who told me they were not their products and Currys and Robert Dyas no longer seem to stock them. I have scoured the web for spares for these items, and have now found and old filter type from a VAX that can be made to fit. What I dont understand is how are Zanussi/Electrolux so blase’ about having their name on stuff which is not authorised by them ?
