Yet when both cookers were full on, the eR7 hot plate used 0.6 kWh (17p an hour) while the Everhot 110 used 0.22 kWh (6p).

This is even more than the total average household energy cost – at £168 a month, according to data collector NimbleFins. You are paying through the nose for a luxury brand, the ultimate kitchen status symbol for country and city folk alike. Because of that, we did not consider that the data demonstrated the AGA eR7 had the lowest running costs of any cast-iron heat-storage range cooker.'
