Do Not Buy This Oven - Waste of money

“Do Not Buy This Oven - Waste of money”

We bought this oven 2 years ago as we liked the way it looked, ironically we had bought the exact same oven 5 years before that and had nothing but trouble with it.
The first time we bought this oven the knobs peeled within a couple of months, we spoke to the manufacturers and they sent us replacement knobs twice as the same kept happening. In the end after several calls they sent out an engineer who altered the fan in the top oven/grill and the problem with the peeling knobs ceased.
So 2 yaears ago we decided to buy a new oven with stoves as we assumed they had rectified the problem on their new ovens only to have the same problem with the knobs and lots of extra problems on top.
First of all the knobs melted, next as others have said the doors became unaligned, the flame blows out if you shut the door too quickly causing dangerous fumes and the grill/top oven and some of the plates don't light properly (we have to blow into the oven to light it or use a gas lighter.
All i can say is AVOID AT ALL COSTS
