Appliances Online has this week introduced three new ovens from different suppliers offering consumers a choice between a freestanding, wall, or a pyrolytic and induction cooktop combination. Varying from 60 litres to 80 litres and with a wide range of unique functions (such as an automatic spillage stop!), if you’re in the market for a new oven you’ll want to read on.

Beginning in alphabetical order is the Indesit Freestanding Upright Electric Oven ($1,599 K6C320X), in stainless steel or black. The 60-litre oven features a defrost function, a 120-minute timer, 2 grill racks, a baking tray, rotisserie, and residual heat indicators for safety for the ceramic glass hob. The Indesit comes with a three-year warranty, and a further three years may be purchased for an additional $99.

The following two ovens offer either pyrolytic or catalytic ability for easy cleaning.

Next in line is the good looking Smeg Pyrolytic Oven and Induction Cooktop Package ($2,969, PKSAP578-PIP264). The 70-litre oven features 6 functions, grill/bake roast tray, chromed grill insert, 2 shelves and safety grip tray handles. Meanwhile, the black cooktop features automatic spillage stop, 9 settings per 4 cooking zones, pan detection and an automatic cut-off.

The last in the list and with the largest capacity of the three new kitchen appliances is the Westinghouse Electric Wall Oven ($1,442, POR783S). This 80-litre capacity oven features 10 functions, catalytic liners, triple glazed oven door, anti-splatter grill insert, 2 shelves and touch on glass electronic controls.

Catalytic ovens oxidise any grease and residue once a certain high temperature is reached in the oven cavity. Pyrolytic cleaning works by heating the oven to a high temperature – around 500 degrees – to burn off any residue.

 

 

Having once had to sit on the washing machine to stop it from bouncing into oblivion, Keri is today delighted with the new (smoother running) technologies that make housework easier every day. A self-confessed lazy-bones, Keri seeks out quirky inventions that ease the human workload, such as the robotic vacuum cleaner (wow). And as soon as someone figures out a Jetsons-like self-cleaning house, she will happily lay her pen to rest and retire from appliance journalism. Until then, her pick is a fridge that will tell her smartphone when it's time to pick up more beer on the way home. Magic.
