The wonderful world of Aga

It is one of the world's most recognised design icons and an Aga cooker is surprisingly easy to fit in with your kitchen design.

You can, for example, slot an Aga neatly between standard kitchen units, occupying a space no greater than an ordinary range cooker. You don't need an extensive kitchen area, as the Aga people have installed in a lighthouse and even onboard a narrowboat.

While many owners view the classic chimney-style flue as part of the Aga look, it's by no means the only option available. You can install an Aga against virtually any wall and certain models can even be placed within an island unit.

The Aga's versatility also extends to fuel sources, with natural gas, propane gas, electricity, oil (kerosene or diesel) all possibilities - and all with equally delicious results.

It's the unique was an Aga cooks that is, of course, the real story behind the legend. Unlike conventional cookers, Aga cast-iron ovens use indirect radiant heat so food does not fry out, but retains its natural taste and flavour.

And today's generation of Aga cookers extends those options even further with the choice of an Aga integrated or freestanding module, featuring such refinements as fan convention and gas or ceramic hobs. Whatever your cooking needs, there's room in your life for an Aga.

As befits a cooker chosen by many of the most discerning homeowners in the land, the personal service you can expect is of the very highest standard. A visit to your local Aga Specialist is the natural first step towards owning an Aga. As well as receiving specialist advice, prospective purchasers can enjoy a taste of the whole Aga experience during one of Aga's famous cooking demonstrations.

Alternatively, you can visit the Aga website at www.aga-web.co.uk.

 Here you'll find exhaustive information and even a 'virtual' kitchen where you can try out style and finishes with all the Aga colours instantly available on screen.

Once you have familiarised yourself with the unique virtues of Aga ownership, one of their project managers will spend time with you in your own kitchen to discuss the possibilities, provide practical solutions and take care of all your technical details.
