I wondered that too. If you want something you pay for it. If you want the

In this case you don't get the best having paid for it. If you want
it for "lifestyle" reasons then of course logic and cost is
irrelevant. If you want to buy a cooker then both price and
performance are usually important factors.


Thats a bit like saying that if all you want is a splash of color on the
wall,£80,0000 for a Tissot is a waste of money.

Agas are not JUST cookers. They are heaters of a certain character as well.

It is simply ridiculous to compare running costs with a gas cooker.

Lets say that its cheaper to heast your house with an aga than a wet
radiotor ans see what you think about that...

6500 is a fair price for an installed CH sytem let alone adding a cooker on
teh price :-)
