To start with the appearance- the oven is really smart in fingerprint proof stainless steel, which makes a difference to a mum of 2 little boys. My old oven was stainless too and involved a lot of polishing if I wanted it spotless. This AEG stainless finish is really WOW and I did not believe at first that it may be so stain proof.
The glass on the door can be easily taken out for cleaning. There's also picture 'guide' on the door suggesting temperatures and option to choose.
Inside there's 2 racks and dip tray perfect for roasting large number of chicken thighs or Christmas vegetables.
The fan is very quiet compared to my previous oven. There's a variety of options to choose from.
I really like fast heat up option and digital indicator on the front showing 3 bars heat up progress. Those bars keep disappearing when the oven cools down after use.
Steam bake function is something amazing. I actually always steam bake pizza now and it is soft and amazing (deep pan ones).
Roasting meat with a temperature probe is much easier and brings out flavour without drying out meat unnecessarily.
There are so many options to pick from that everyone will be able to adapt them to get most preferred outcomes.
For me a really important feature is cooking on all the shelves simultaneously. As a family, you don't want to wait to roast turkey and then vegetables etc or to dry out everything completely with too strong fan.
After those few weeks I'm still learning my new oven. I really love it and am extremely happy I opted for this model.
Also, it is easy to clean its tray and racks. Hope it does not change over time with more use.
Cons:
Some mini cons only- timer setting starts with seconds rather than minutes. Would prefer setting to jump straight to minutes. Maybe I'm yet to discover the importance of seconds when using the oven ;)
