What I like about the new wolf 30” is that it has the widest cavity or of any steam oven on the market. Think of how often we could use a wider space for sheets, racks, wide pans and dishes. It now comes with a broiler on top as well. And for many such as myself, there is nonexistent/poor service availability for Miele and Gagg in my area…..so while those steam ovens COULD perform “better” than a wolf CSO , there are plenty of threads on here of people saying how often their Miele CSO needs repair and are so thankful they paid for an extended warranty. Wolf/SZ ecosystem is known for its great customer service and I know they are Available for when I need help . Their CSO is all stainless, so no enamel chipping issues to worry about either.
If its wolf vs thermador for a combi steam. I would choose wolf. The stainless steel interior if far less likely to Rust than the enamel steel thermador. There is a reason why gaggeneu and miele use stainless steel in their combi steam oven.
Can't say enough good things about my Miele. I would absolutely buy it again, even though I did have a repair that happened under the extended warranty, and scarily enough that warranty has now run out so I am on my own. But it's still an amazingly well-engineered product.
But I hear @Pi_pumpkin_sol3, if there is no way to get Miele serviced where they live, this simply might not be an option. In that case, features such as a stainless steel cavity would rank for high on my list of must-haves.
