Speed / Combi Steam Oven Instead of Wall Oven?
Comments (13)I just linked to a picture I found online; however, my speed oven interior looks exactly like the picture. My cookies, not so sure..... Wall ovens, when they were introduced in the 1950s, were often really installed in a cutout in a wall. Nowadays they're almost always put in cabinets, but the term stuck. My Advantium 240 was installed in a new hole cut in the kitchen wall, reclaiming what previously was utterly unusable space above a staircase, which previously was open to its landing and 7 to 10 feet upwards, with sliding doors covering it. I reappropriated it for the kitchen in the adjacent room, as the bottom of that unreachable storage closet was only 50" above the kitchen floor. I would have preferred it a half foot lower, but free space in this tiny kitchen (which didn't have room for a dishwasher before renovation) was too good to pass up. As for how much I value the "regular" oven we're putting in, it too will have a drawer under it - and the oven itself is already under the counter. I got the smallest oven I could find - 24" wide, 24" tall - and it leaves room for a 6"h drawer underneath. I didn't want to waste space on an appliance that will rarely get used....See MoreMiele Steam/Combi Steam ovens - plumbed vs non-plumbed?
Comments (45)I don't know the answer but I am curious. if I were you (and having the benefit of hindsight) I wouldn't hesitate to call any of the Miele USA "Experience Centers" and ask to talk to any of the design staff. If you are in the US start with the Princeton, NJ center, their US headquarters. Even better if you can get to a center. The staff at these centers are a world apart from anyone you'll encounter at any appliance dealer, they use the products for demos and classes and typically have the appliances in their own homes. And it's their job to know the details on what you are asking. And report back and let us know. P.S: A little searching and I found this: https://www.mieleusa.com/media/ex/us/PressReleases/2021/9.2021_Generation_7000_Launch.pdf. Food View sounds interesting. There's also this thread: https://www.houzz.com/discussions/6229141/miele-7000-series-speed-combi-steam#n=10 Advice on calling the experience centers still stands....See MoreMiele Combi Steam Oven - XL vs XXL (and layout advice)
Comments (10)I have been researching various Miele combinations for the CSO and the CO both 24 inches wide. I had designed an alcove in the kitchen 90 degrees from the island for stackable CO and then the CSO XL. Both are the Sensotronic because the CO 24 inches doesn't come in the M touch. The CSO is unplumbed because I was told that filling the water and emptying the condensation tray is really easy. I am now re-thinking these choices. I thought getting the CSO XL was nice for daily cooking along with the induction cookop (Miele 30 inch or 36 inch, still deciding). But in looking at the XXL, it seems I could just get the XXL M touch and plumbed. Any thoughts: Is having the CSO XXL enough. I hear it takes an 18-turkey. The only reason to get the CO is perhaps for making a pizza, but the CSO XXL also has an intensive heat option. This is for a new home construction. All the Miele literature shows these gorgeous kitchens with all these stackable appliances. But having a single XXL at the right height as a wall unit also seems elegant, especially the M touch. All appliances are black and countertops are soapstone. 30 or 36-inch Miele induction with the downdraft extractor in the 7-foot long island 30-subzero refrigerator, with the 2-drawer freezer 36-inch Julien Smart Sink Thanks Suzanne....See MoreHelp with Miele Combi steam oven + 2nd oven?
Comments (12)I want the broil feature and only those two offer it... wolf does not. Since i will be putting the cso with a single convection under it and another single convection under a cooktop next it I don't think there is an option to mix appliance, While Miele's CSO has a broiler element, it's only about as powerful as what you'd expect for an "average" residential oven. I find it works to give dishes a little bit of heat from the top, but it isn't really very useful for char broiling. That's a problem with a lot of ovens. If you want to get a good broiler, you need to buy a higher-end gas oven (those often advertise what they call "IR" broilers), or you need to buy a Bluestar wall oven. That is one of the few electric ovens that is known for having a very good broiler element. Putting a wall oven under a cooktop doesn't generally work all that well. Not only do you have to negotiate the clearance requirements between the wall oven and the cooktop, there also is the problem that wall ovens typically sit closer to the floor. With in-wall installation, that's awesome. But when you are already in a bottom cabinet, that means the door is too close to the floor and it's very awkward to access. As for mixing and matching, I honestly wouldn't worry too much. Nobody is really going to notice after a few weeks. It's a little more noticeable when the units are directly next to each other. But even that doesn't matter much. We have a stack of Miele CSO and SpeedOven in the wall, and a Bluestar range right next to it. I don't think anybody has spotted the different brands yet. We also have a paneled SubZero fridge, but we installed a Miele handle, as it happened to be cheaper and a design that worked better for us....See More
