As an alternative to a built-in steam oven you might want to consider the microwave plus grill plus steam oven combo from Sharp. It’s called the Steamwave (pictured – more product detail) and functions as both a normal microwave and a real steam oven. Incorporating a specially designed steam generator the Steamwave offers real steam cooking and is aided by 18 pre-programmed menus just for steaming.

The Steamwave offers a range of steam temperature settings from 70°C up to 95°C. This means that there are a whole host of manual cooking options giving fantastic steam results with all kinds of food. Along with 3 pre-programmed, delicate defrost settings, you can confidently defrost food such as fish fillets, fillet steak and frozen sushi. Remember not to use metal-based cookware when using microwaves for cooking – consider glass, plastic or silicone kitchenware available from suppliers including Cutlery Drawer and Kitchencraft.

The steamwave comes with a very useful steam cooking recipe book and is full of ideas for using flavours from all around the world. Accessories include two steel steam trays as well as a handy glass tray, which can be used with the rack for perfect grill results.

Available to buy from John Lewis.

If like me you’ve not heard of V-Zug before then you might be interested to know that they are the Swiss market leader in the field of household appliances. V-Zug develops, produces and sells top-quality kitchen and washing appliances. And they evidently produce combi steam ovens too.

Good luck!

The dedicated customer centre displays the range of Miele domestic and professional appliances. A team of Product Advisors can give you expert advice and assistance to ensure you are selecting the right appliance for your requirements. The centre offers a truly live experience as products are displayed electrically connected, so you can even try out the controls during your visit. Some of the machines are fully live so you could even try out the wash results on a favourite garment or see the results of an oven on your favourite recipe.

Sounds like it’s worth a trip if you’re in the area (Abingdon, Oxfordshire).

Sainsburys Kitchen Appliances have got the Smeg FV38X (pictured) available on their website for £505 (price may change) plus £19.99 delivery. You do get around 1000 Nectar cards points though.

Appliances store Biasco have got the very same oven for £472 (again, at time of writing) with a delivery charge of £30 – so you could save a pound or two. We do sometimes have discount codes for use at Biasco but there are non live at the moment unfortunately.

We’re on the look out for more Smeg ovens deals of course and we’ll post about them when we do find them!

Well, John Lewis have a solution for you. For example, let’s say you’re going to buy the Neff B876NO Compact Steam Oven; at the bottom of the page you can enter your postcode and check to see if you can use their £9 disposal service. They’ll take away your old appliance (the service is not just for ovens, fridges, freezers, washing machines and dishwashers are included too) when they deliver your new item – though don’t expect them to be disconnecting your existing appliance of course.

Now obviously I can’t check every postcode for you but if you live in Hoylake, Wirral too it looks like we’re covered.

What perhaps isn’t quite so well known is that Sainsburys also have a dedicated website offering cut price deals on a wide range of appliances. The good news for those of you hunting for a new steam oven is that the site includes a dedicated steam oven section. The section includes models from these manufacturers:

• Smeg
• Bosch
• Hotpoint
• Neff
• Miele

It looks like they favour Miele steam ovens as the site is detailing six individual models with a colour range including both black and silver (stainless steel). The Miele DG4064L looks very hi-tech indeed – though with a price tag of nearly £3000 you’d expect it to look and act the part. All the Miele ovens come with a 2 year manufacturers warranty.
