Since the very first Aga cooker was made more than 80 years ago, 70% of each new Aga has been manufactured from previously used material, which shows that Aga have been aware of the importance of recycling from the start.

Car gearboxes, guttering, old m a c h i n e r y, cookers, door fittings, drain covers and lampposts have all gone towards making the famous Aga cooker.

Because of their commitment to recycling, Aga is offering any customer who wishes to change their Aga cooker a £500 discount on a new Aga, when they trade in their old one. The old Agas will then be melted down and made into new ones, thus completing the cycle.

The Aga keeps on cooking for years and is renowned for its longevity, which is why some people say an Aga lasts a lifetime.

The long-lasting Aga is of real benefit to our environment in today’s disposable culture and since they are almost completely recyclable, you’ll probably never find an Aga in a landfill site!

If you hanker after an Aga, but your kitchen is just too small, or you like the Aga style, but prefer a more modern cooker, this could be the answer.

The Aga Four Two mini has three burner sizes, conventional and fan ovens, a ceramic grill, and even a timer. Everything you’d expect to find on a state-of-the-art conventional range cooker, plus an Aga badge.

The Four Two mini is also rather more compact than a traditional Aga range cooker at 595mm wide, so it will fit between standard kitchen units. So now you don’t need a huge farmhouse kitchen to have an Aga.

Pictured is the Special Edition (with the chequered flag pattern) - but if that’s not your cup of tea, the Four Two mini range cooker is also available in a wide range of (single) colours.

The Aga Four Two mini special edition costs from around £2,950.

Welcome to UK Home Ideas. We’re looking forward to bringing you the latest information on interesting and exciting products for your home. Many will be brand new, some will be classics, and others simply beautiful or inspiring. You can be sure there will be something new to see every single day.

So after months of planning and preparation, this is it - day one, article one. I’m surrounded by information and photos of superb products for the home - the dilemma - what shall I choose for the first ever article on UK Home Ideas…

Actually it’s not that hard. The kitchen is the heart of the home - a family space, warm, comfortable and inviting. Perhaps that’s why even in the technological maelstrom of the twenty-first century, it’s the Aga, a cast-iron range cooker designed more than 80 years ago that’s still says “home” to a lot of people.

Of course the Aga hasn’t stood still - you can now buy an Aga cooker with gas burners, or a halogen hob, and choose from a rainbow of colours. But it’s this, the standard Aga, with the traditional hotplates that thousands of people still aspire to have in their homes.

Pictured is the two oven Aga, in Claret, priced from £5,650.
