Oven buying guide

Scroll down

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 how much space you have, the style of your kitchen, and your cooking habits. Our helpful oven guide answers the most commonly asked questions:

What size oven do I need?

Oven sizes vary depending on the model. However, ovens typically measure 60 x 60cm for standard models, 60 x 45cm for compact models. It’s important to choose an oven that fits the space available in your kitchen. If space is flexible, consider how often and how much you’ll be cooking.

Standard oven dimensions

We offer a wide range of options in the standard oven size, 60cm wide x 60cm high.

Compact ovens

At 45cm, the compact oven’s shorter height and standard 60cm width make it ideal for smaller spaces. Use in combination with a warming drawer or sous-vide drawer for maximum versatility.

What heating types can I choose from?

All Siemens ovens use convection heating however, some models include either an integrated microwave, steam functionality, or both.

What is a self-cleaning oven?

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.

Clean at a touch: activeClean

Clean your oven at the touch of a button with a pyrolytic oven. Remove any loose food first, then let activeClean turn all residue from baking, roasting, and grilling to ash at high temperature. Simply wipe up what remains.

Stop dirt build-up: ecoClean

Ovens that get less dirty need less cleaning. Siemens ecoClean is a special coating that disintegrates dirt and reduces odors during cooking. It regenerates every time you heat it, for the life of the appliance.

What type of oven is best for baking?

What innovative oven features do Siemens offer?

Today’s advanced technology has enabled all kinds of innovative oven features, such as touch screen navigation, childproof locking, remote diagnostics, and more.

What benefits does a WIFI-connected smart oven give me?

With WiFi connectivity, you can control your oven using an application on your smartphone. This allows you to preheat the oven before you arrive home, adjust settings after you’ve left, and receive notifications.

Use the Home Connect App to discover a world of delicious recipes. Pick your favourite, transfer the settings to your oven, and you can even start the heating process remotely.
