Hob top meals only eh?
How did you guess?
Actually, I couldn't have picked a better time for the oven to blow
The array of simple, single built-in ovens on the market is not that extensive once you've whittled it down. Then there are the "Free delivery" / "Pay for Delivery" options ... the ones that "Don't do stairs, but might do steps", "No charge if there's a lift", "What time slot do you want because we'll charge you extra for opting in" ... on and on it goes
I've gone for the Zanussi on price, recommendation, feedback, looks, and because I've had their white goods before with no problem. Delivery is free; Jim the Sparks will install and take away the old one cheaper than the shed I bought it from and, frankly his time is well worth the money in entertainment alone
I get to hear all the local gossip, jokes, man on the Clapham Omnibus opinions about everything... plus, he knows good tradesmen for any other job that needs doing.
