"Bought to replace our 20 year old Zanussi double oven. There were not many online reviews on this particular model so took a chance buying this. Must say I am not disappointed but the product could have been better in design.
Pros:
- Main oven has a number of functions that would only come with more expensive brands / ovens. Like the Air Fry and Self Cleaning function. Have used the Air Fry function and enjoyed crispy fries and chicken nuggets.
- Digital Temperature gauge is a bonus as most of the mid-range ovens have all dropped digital temperature gauge, which my 20 year old Zanussi had. This is the only Zanussi mid-range oven that has the digital temperature gauge now.
- Cool looking digital progress bar to indicate the temperature level and beeps when the desired temperature is reached.
Cons:
- Main oven is smaller compared to the 20 year old Zanussi I had and most mainstream ovens.
- The beeper sound is too low even at the highest volume.
- Racks / shelves are bit flimsy and thin compared to the older outgoing Zanussi.
- Function indicators are not clear enough and you need to look closely to see where your selector is. This could have been a lit up dial so it could be seen easily.
- The clock digits are too small to read the time even from a relatively short distance.
- Inside the main oven the width has been significantly reduced compared to the older oven and other ovens. I am not able to use the wider baking trays I used in the old Zanussi I replaced with this.
- Glass control panel easily get fingermarks as you use the controls.
- The Settings function needs a bit of reading and studying for someone naive."

"We love our new Zanussi oven. Easy to operate and the air fryer function is very useful. The moist baking setting really works. Does what it says. "
"Oven reaches temperature quickly and cooks evenly. Nice bright light inside. Dial control symbols are pale and difficult to see. "
