How To....Choose a Wall oven

Wall ovens have become more popular over the last few years. The chief benefit seems to ergometrics(a fancy term for not bending over) and choice of brands.

There lies the problem. We show 15 wall ovens from Dacor, KitchenAid, Electrolux,
Fisher Paykel, Wolf, Miele, Viking, JennAir, Thermador and Bosch to name a few. Most have at least one convection oven(fan forced heat for evenness of cooking).






They are all decent products, so how do you choose?

From a price perspective, the first step is to look at rebates as well as other matching products. Seems like heresy, but there seems to be similarities, so why pay 1,000 or more for similar features.


There are 3 really to consider at the present time:



Thermador Sec302ts...They have a newer "edgier" style, which is the reason we purchased the remainder of this series. At $2799 plus a $300 rebate, Thermador is the best value of the bunch.






Miele H4890Bp. This product is extremely likeable. The Miele is beautifully designed(recently copied) with 2 convection ovens and rotiserie. The best part of this oven is the Masterchef controls. It allows the consumer to perfectly almost anything with detail and easy prompts. Cook a piece of meat, the controls will prompt for type and weight automatically. Miele has a great repair recod as well. Likeability does cost money at roughly $5200






Wolf D030. You have to love SubZero. They buy an unknown company completely retool the product add two convection fans(in the same oven) for more even cooking as well as a cool retractable control panel. The product becomes state of the art and the hottest selling product in one months time.
