A cooker suitable for a flat

Im looking at refurbishing my kitchen but im a little unsure about what cookers are allowed and are suitable for use in flats. Can some give me any advice- what am i allowed to do/not allowed to do?

Can anyone make any suggestions or has any previous experience?

Thanks

Apart (presumably) from coal or gas fired Aga's I would have thought most electric and gas cookers are 'allowed'.

Do you want a cooker or a separate oven and hob.?

Re: A cooker suitable for a flat

I would fit a electrical cooker. Or a f.s.d. ( flame safe device)

If your flat is a HMO You have no option but to fit fsd or electric.

I have a few houses and i let them out to students. I have gone down the electric route.

Re: A cooker suitable for a flat

Charlotte, it depends on your circumstances, of course, but are you sure you actually need a full-blown cooker? These days, unless you are really into cooking, or do lots of dinner parties, I reckon portable devices are much cheaper and work just as well.

A combination microwave oven (£200 or so), a couple of portable electric rings at about £20 each, plus the inevitable kettle & toaster, may well be all you need.
