I'm looking to buy an oven. Does anyone know what the ones are in Saturday Kitchen? I'm pretty sure I've identified the ones in Great British Bake Off as the Neff with the slide-away door and the ones in Professional Masterchef are either a De Dietrich or a Bosch.

Of course, any pyrolytic oven recommendations in the £700 range will be gratefully received :D

Currently been looking at the Bosch/Neff/Siemens which seem to be the same oven, the Smeg which is a little bigger but I don't like the way it looks, Miele are a bit out of the price range and I haven't found anywhere on the high street to see the Samsung model. All of them so far have had one annoying feature that I'd find it difficult to live with, which is very frustrating!!!
 
Wolf ovens are on my list of when I build my house. They're insanely nice ovens.

I honestly don't know how I just got so excited about an oven, but I would love one. A good oven is worth so much.
 
Hmm, quite a nice bit of kit, but way out of the price range!!! I noticed the new model is in Sunday Brunch as well.
 
We have a Bosch, i think it was £600. It was rated very highly by Which magazine, it cooks very evenly and we are extremely happy with it. It heats to around 5-600 degrees when you want to clean it which i thought maybe a bit of a gimmick but it turns anything in side to ash and simply you wipe it out with a damp cloth.

Aren't Miele the go to name for all kitchen appliances?? Or so I was led to believe...

If you read ocuk and have money to burn then yes.

The next ocuk recomendation will be Bosch.

Finally you will get loads of randoms saying I have X and it hasn't cost me a bean in years.

Back on topic I have a bosch double oven which is really nice and cooks excellently I just wish the main control knob didn't break every three years and cost the best part of £100 to replace.
 
That's the bit I don't like about the Bosch. For the single ovens, Bosch, Neff and Siemens all share the same oven carcass, door, hinges and a number of other components on view. When they are next to each other they are practically identical. What seems to differ is the rack spacing (which is annoying on the Neff), the control panels (annoyingly poor quality on the Bosch but nice on the Neff), and the price (£100 more for the Siemens for seemingly no more oven). Then the Smegs come up with more internal volume and nice even rack spacing, but are odd-looking and not even in a good way :(
 
It's really cool, but the mid-range one isn't pyrolitic cleaning, which is a must-have for the amount I use the oven :D
