Currently sitting at the top of our list for the best oven is the NEFF N70 B57CR22N0B. With 71-litres of interior space, a grill section and pyrolytic self-cleaning, the NEFF N70 B57CR22N0B is a brilliant all-rounder and will cook, bake, roast and grill anything you throw at it… or should we say in it.
Our favourite part of the NEFF N70 B57CR22N0B is its slide-away door, a la Great British Bake Off. It’s an exceptional oven for baking in particular with its Circotherm technology, accurate temperatures and power to keep flavours separate if you cook multiple things at once.

Smeg Gallileo, Miele H2267-1BP, Smeg Omnichef.
