After about 25 years it seems time to change our Carron Capri three
electric cooker.

I don't like fan ovens. They seem always to be dreadfully noisy and from
experience long ago with industrial controlled environment ovens it was
always the fans that failed first and frequently.

Can anybody suggest a suitable replacement model either fanless or with
a reliable quiet fan.

I am not sure what you mean by "electric cooker" but our Dacor range has
fans for both convection and cooling and they are quite quiet and have been
trouble-free for many years.

Electric cooker is the UK term for an electric range. I don't know if the
Dacor is sold there.

Thanks. Dora is right I'm in England and we still use the expression
"cooker" although "range" is starting to come in for wide cookers. To
me a range is a solid fuel cooker - Rayburn or Aga, etc.

I've just Googled(UK) for Dacor but it seems they are sufficiently
rare here that it would be inadvisable to buy one. Anyway I really
don't want a fan.

Part of the trouble is that suppliers here never seem able to switch on
the things they sell so it's quite impossible to judge the noise. In
other people's homes I notice that fan ovens always seem to make a loud
irritating roar. Much worse than an un-quietened PC.

Edgar, you might want to ask your question on the newsgroup
uk.food+drink.misc . They're a friendly group and would be happy to help
if they can, I'm sure.

Thanks Dora. I assumed quiet cookers would be pretty international
things. This group came up when I googled for "quiet cooker" although I
noticed "roaster" didn't get an answer.
Anyway thanks to all for putting up with me.
