Kenwood Cooker - Can Anybody Recommend?

I am in the process of looking to purchase a new cooker (after many, many years!).

I have seen a Kenwood gas range cooker/splashback/hood and although it's a bit pricey, I have done a search on pricerunner only to find that Curry's are the only one who seem to stock it.

Does anybody have a Kenwood cooker - and would they recommend it (or not)?

Cheers me dears.

    I've got a Kenwood stainless steel range cooker with gas burners and double electric oven. After installation I found that things didn't cook as quickly as my old Hotpoint and the gas burners went out by themselves when set to minimum. Not a great start. However I contacted Currys (who I think sell Kenwood ovens exclusively). They sent an engineer who increased the gas flow eliminating that problem and changed the thermostat in the main fan oven.
    Although the oven is still slower than the old oven it does cook very evenly - unlike the Hotpoint where you had to turn things around to get even cooking.
    Now the problems have been sorted I'm happy with it.
