looking at replacement electric range 600mm freestanding.

Existing F&P multi function, radiant hobs, will plug connection, nearly 20 years old but all working.


Replacement options being considered;

Westinghouse Apollo with ceramic cook top, currently 25% off at Harvey Norman

F&P Elba similar spec


Anyone have these models, or similar options and offer any advice? 





:)

I've used induction and ceramic. I'd rather have old coil style than most ceramic cooktops. Ceramics are too cool and slow for the way I cook. Induction went onto our current wiring, a practical electrican said "don't turn the oven and all the elements on at the same time, if the circuit breaker blows we'll replace the wiring". He checked the wiring was rated for at least what the break could do.
