Is a Von Hotpoint cooker worth repairing?

Yes, usually. Von cookers are well built and most faults are an igniter, thermocouple or valve, which are cheap compared with a new cooker.

Are you an official Von Hotpoint service centre?

No. We are an independent repair company. We repair Von Hotpoint cookers out of warranty, or when you choose an independent repair. If yours is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, contact the seller first.
