Buying cooking appliances
- by John Lewis
A cooker is at the heart of every kitchen whether it's a straightforward upright slot-in cooker, or a large range. You may be designing a new kitchen layout or simply replacing old appliances, and you might prefer to split your cooker so that the hob and the oven/grill are built in (or under) in different parts of the kitchen. Whatever you choose, new appliances can only help your cooking confidence and creativity!

Buying food processors
- by John Lewis
With so many food preparation products on the market the important question you must ask yourself before buying is: what do I want the machine to do? If it's a matter of whipping cream then a hand mixer will suffice, but for making cakes a proper, freestanding processor will be more up to the task. If your culinary ambitions extend to lavish entertaining , then it's worth looking at a top-end machine with lots of attachments. It may seem an expensive option, but in the long run its longevity and versatility will prove good value.
