TESTING
It was difficult to choose dishes from the recipe book because of their variety, I wanted to try everything.
Overall impression: To turn the oven on it’s not enough to plug it in: there’s also a special switch on the back of the oven. Installation of the clock did not cause any difficulties.
Control: a little inconvenient that the icons on the display of this oven and in the recipe book do not match. Still not very much liked the display of power level: I had to count the stripes I’m more comfortable with numbers or letter level designations .
No remarks about the rest: everything is clear and without instruction, and if anything, it gives the most detailed recommendations.
Built-in water tank is rare in freestanding microwave ovens, it is usually used in built-in premium equipment. Generally speaking, the manufacturer emphasizes that steam is not a separate mode in this oven, but a function that is used in many modes.
In terms of its size, it is close to the size of the stove 50×50 cm . In addition, there is no glass turntable, which, however, gives more freedom with the choice of utensils for cooking. It’s possible thanks to inverter control. But we couldn’t find any information about the oven inverter in the manual, so we had to check the manufacturer’s site.
