    You need to be tall with great eyesight

    1/5
    This oven only arrived today, but my first impression is that unless you have FANTASTIC eyesight, and are tall, it's absolutely useless. The only indication of what function you are choosing is on the left-hand control knob, the functions are printed around the silver coloured dial. It's above eye level for me so I have to stand on tiptoe and can still barely see the etchings around the edge of the 1" diameter dial - pictures, not words, so you have to figure out what they mean as well. The instruction book is a thin pamphlet that gives little information really on how to use the oven and the 'steam feature' is nothing more than a shallow indentation in the floor of the oven that you pour water into when the oven is cold. Thus ensuring that by the time the oven is hot, it's probably evaporated away, so a useless feature that allowed them to bump up the price without being of any practical use. A great pity that this item was not described fully in the write-up about it. I hate this oven already.

    On reflection

    2/5
    Overall appearance is good. Today is the first opportunity to try the oven out. First problem, discovering that because of the high electrical rating of the oven, new wiring is required from fuse box to oven causing delays before first use. This level of detail not available at time of purchase to indicate ‘buyer beware’ before purchase’ Second problem, operation of control functions. Crystal ball (almost) required to discover function indicators are on the inside of the control knob only, not additionally on the front of the knob, so almost impossible to see and read when oven is located at work top height. Instruction book does not mention this important fact. A case of design over functionality hence our low rating, but an issue that cold so easily be corrected and made simple.

    Great oven

    4/5
    Great oven, warms up really quickly and cooks beautifully. We have had many different makes of ovens over the years but this has definitely been the best. On the downside the manual for it is rubbish and the clock is a pain to set, the instructions in the manual describe how to set a completely different oven.

    All good so far

    Working well. Not tried all the programs yet or the pyrolytic cleaning function so can't comment on that.

    Good spacious oven

    4/5
    Good oven with larger capacity than my previous AEG oven of the same size. I find the function dial a bit tricky to read of the oven that is set at eye level as the function indicators are written around the knob when it is depressed and the on selection point is at the top of the dial. The oven heats up quickly. I've yet to try the timer setting. A big drip tray with rack is provided with the oven but no grill pan. Excellent delivery and delivery communication.

    Fantastic product.

    4/5
    Great oven and really easy to use. I don't bake, but have used it for roasts which have turned out excellent. The grill temperature seems a bit too high (300 degrees), but its a simple procedure to lower this.
