With so many different types, sizes, and features to choose from, buying a new oven can be a daunting process. To find out which oven is best for your needs, consider the style of your kitchen, your installation preference (built-in or freestanding) and your cooking habits. Our helpful oven buying guide answers the most commonly asked questions.
While personal preferences do play a part, the type of oven is often determined by the layout and design of your kitchen. Integrated ovens must be professionally installed whereas a freestanding oven slots easily into any available space. Built-in ovens offer a more modern and sophisticated look. They can also be installed at a convenient height and combined with other appliances in a row that fits seamlessly together.
Oven sizes vary depending on the model. However, ovens typically measure 60x60cm for standard models, 60x45cm for compact models, and 90x60cm for bigger models – with double ovens exceeding that. It’s important to choose an oven that fits the space available in your kitchen. If space is flexible, consider your cooking preferences. Siemens ovens come in four sizes: standard, compact, XL, and XXL. You have the option of combining a standard size oven with a standalone steamer. If space is a concern, combination ovens allow you to steam or microwave food without needing additional appliances. To know which size is right for you, we’ve provided the oven dimensions for each size.
There are three different oven heating methods: convection, microwave and steam. Most Siemens ovens use convection heating in combination with numerous intelligent functions. Some models include either an integrated microwave, steam functionality or both. Steamers are also available as standalone appliances that can compliment a standard convection oven.
Siemens' ovens offer also a range of standard and specialised heat settings for every type of dish.
Siemens' user-friendly menu structure and high-resolution colour displays with touch navigation makes operating your oven intuitively simple.
A self-cleaning oven (or pyrolytic oven) uses extremely high temperatures, up to 500 degrees Celsius, to turn food residue into ash. This can be easily wiped away without scrubbing or detergent. In addition to self-cleaning, Siemens offers ovens with technology to prevent dirt build-up and make cleaning easier.
Siemens intelligent ovens come with a range of innovative safety features, such as telescopic rails, childproof locking, and gentle door closing.
With WiFi connectivity, you can control your oven using our Home Connect app on your smartphone. This allows you to preheat the oven before you arrive home, transfer recipe settings, use voice control and monitor the baking progress.
If you’re passionate about baking, you’ll want to find an oven that best suits your needs and space. Siemens ovens ensure optimal baking results with even heat distribution and intelligent sensors that monitor the temperature and moisture level to prevent overcooking.
Energy consumption depends on what temperatures you use most. However, most modern appliances use around 2.4kWh per hour on medium to high heat. Aside from gas, which uses no electricity, the most energy efficient ovens use convection heating.
