"Absolutely delighted with this oven. It not only looks good it is fantastic. Some of the functions yet to be tried.
The quality of the oven speaks for itself. The ease of the control panel is a relief as at first it looked a bit daunting. The oven shelves are excellent quality as are the baking trays. The steam function is a revelation - I have never used it before but now would not want to be without it.
Have no doubt I choose the best oven."

"AEG seem to have 3 types of oven controls. The cheapest is 2 knobs and 5 buttons. The middle ones have a menu-based control with about 10 touch sensitive buttons. The most expensive has a menu-based system with just one large knob.
I had a different AEG oven (BP500352DM) for a couple of months that had been delivered and installed in error. (Not by AO). I liked the performance of that oven, but hated the controls. It had the two knobs/5 buttons.
This model however has the far better menu-based controls, with multiple touch-sensitive buttons and it can be used without referring to the manual. The display can show lots of different information at the same time.
It is generally excellent. Large capacity, very easy to clean, quiet, cool door, lots of different options. The built-in water reservoir is great, as are the telescopic shelf mounts and the meat thermometer.
I do have some minor problems. Some of the special functions have a short default time setting (eg dough proving is only 15 minutes). The slow cooking function with the built in meat thermometer only goes down to 80 deg. I would like it to go down to 60 deg for a really slow cook.

"After a long research I decided for this Aeg oven as it has all the features I needed. First of all it reaches higher temperatures to 300 degrees, which essential to cook a great pizza. Also the dough proving function is fantastic as it cut down proving time and it makes the process so easy. This oven is packed with features which I have just started to explore. The low steam function is great to use to roast chicken making it crispy and juicy without any fuss. The food temperature probe is another useful tool to cook meat to perfection. Although it is expensive, it is definitely value for Money. "

"After extensive research I opted for this Aeg oven as it ticked all the boxes. Most importantly it reaches 300 degrees Celsius so I can cook a great pizza with the bottom heat function. The dough proving function is fantastic, it cut down proving time in half!
It's very easy to use. I have not explored all the functions but so far I love this oven."
