New cooker needed - AEG or Zanussi?? Any ideas, folks?

Basically, we need a new cooker; has to be electric, and I'm going for ceramic top, touch control (easy to clean, not the mad prices of induction hobs), stainless steel, double oven. The Zanussi model we have looks great, but hasn't been problem free over the past 9 years, though overall I've liked it. I've found two models, one an AEG D98000VFM, the other a Zanussi zkt6050 - I've no experience of AEG and would welcome any views from others who may know more than me, or who may be able to suggest an alternative make/model. Any advice welcomed.

Bumping this, as I'm still struggling with this one - the Zanussi is coming out about £120 cheaper than the AEG, but the only reviews I've been able to find of Zanussi ovens are negative - and the problems others have had with dodgy thermostats/elements are similar to the problems I had. Still... over £800 :eek: is a lot to spend on a cooker - any AEG fans - or otherwise - out there?

Any help appreciated!!

We have a separate AEG oven and induction hob... love them love them love them. Oven even cleans it's self - PYROLUXE - you put it onto that setting and it locks the door and heats to 500 degrees for 3 hours and burns off the dirt!!

AEG seemed to do v well for reliability which is why we got them. John Lewis were doing a deal and 5 yr warranty. Might be worth a look at JL...
