Altimo 600mm Double Oven Cooker with Ceramic Hob vs 500mm Twin Cavity Freestanding Cooker — Comparison

CEDC602W 600mm Double Oven Cooker with Ceramic Hob is priced at £349, while the CETC502W 500mm Twin Cavity Freestanding Cooker is the cheaper Altimo model at £289. Both are white freestanding ceramic-hob cookers with two cooking spaces, but the CEDC602W is the wider, larger-capacity model and the CETC502W is the compact, lower-cost alternative.

The CEDC602W has a 60-litre main oven and 30-litre second oven, giving 90 litres of listed oven capacity, along with a double-oven layout, ceramic hob and B energy rating. The CETC502W has a 48-litre main cavity and 23-litre second cavity, totalling 71 litres, with a four-zone ceramic hob, integrated grill and A energy rating. Supplied specs do not include wattage, exact height or depth. The big difference is size and efficiency rating: the CEDC602W is 600mm wide with 19 litres more oven space, while the CETC502W is 500mm wide and carries the better A energy rating.

The CEDC602W suits households with the space for a 600mm cooker and a need for more oven capacity, such as cooking trays, larger roasts or more flexible family meals. It is worth the extra £60 if width and total capacity matter. The CETC502W is ideal for smaller kitchens, flats, budget replacements and users who do not need a 60-litre oven. Its integrated grill and A rating make it practical, while the 500mm footprint is easier to fit where space is limited.

Bottom line: "choose CEDC602W if you want a 600mm Altimo cooker with 60L and 30L oven space / opt for CETC502W if you need a cheaper 500mm cooker with A-rated efficiency and an integrated grill."
