Liebherr make very good fridge freezers. I went for this one:

Nice build, sturdy and plenty of space.

If it's any help, the oven cleans at (IIRC) 475 degrees centigrade, so we always open the windows, kitchen door, and do it on a cool day. It can throw out some incredible heat, but we only need to clean it 3-4 times a year.

There was me thinking a pyrolytic oven would be quite unobtrusive! Sounds like an ordeal but I don't *do* oven cleaning.

Just as a matter of interest, Neff are owned by Bosch...so the products are made in the same factories and have been since 1982.

I've owned several Neff ovens and always found them to be very good, but I believe that Bosch are just as good

Yep, noted.

Mostly went for them as I understood the catalogue better (although did go for the Bosch dishwasher as it had cashback and free tablets). There wasn't much in the price over the two (Siemens was a step up though!).

I can't work out who owns who/which are the good brands anymore

This is a great chart for that, unfortunately it's dated 2006. Though I doubt any company has let a brand go, it may have acquired\made up a few since then...
