Once the hero of the kitchen, the oven has slowly been edged out. These days, people prefer to use a slow cooker, an air fryer, or a steamer. And while these appliances are very useful, they take up a lot of bench space.
But all of that is about to change thanks to Electrolux’s new oven range. Not only does it do everything a regular oven does, but it also replaces your air fryer, slow cooker, steamer and more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The Electrolux 800 Series Steam Oven can now replace your air fryer, slow cooker and steamer in one built-in appliance.
- Steam when you need it, or switch it off entirely and use it as a conventional oven.
- Developed in partnership with chef Matt Stone, who positions steam as an everyday skill, not a professional one.
What is the Electrolux full steam oven?
The Electrolux EVES6810BF is a 60cm built-in steam oven. Developed in partnership with award-winning chef Matt Stone, it’s built around one idea: steam cooking shouldn’t be a specialist skill. It should be something anyone can do, any night of the week.
“Steam gives you precision without pressure,” said Matt. “It doesn’t ask you to cook differently. It helps you cook better.”
With 24 cooking functions, 139 assisted cooking programs, AI TasteAssist and a smart food probe, it’s one of the most capable ovens available in Australia right now. And beyond the steam, it’s quietly replacing many of the other appliances in your kitchen.
What does it replace?
It replaces your:
Air fryer: it has an AirFry mode (with tray included in the box) that delivers the same crispy results as the air fryer sitting on your bench.
Slow cooker: Slow Cook and Stew modes do all the low-and-slow work, perfect for winter casseroles.
Steamer: the full SteamPro function gives you four intelligent steam modes, covering everything from delicate fish and vegetables to juicy roasts with crispy skin. And if you just want a regular oven, switch the steam off entirely. Steam when you need it.
It also has Dehydrating, Dough Proving, and Bread Baking modes, as well as steam-based Reheat and Refresh functions to reheat your leftovers so they taste just as good.
What are people saying?
The range only launched in Australia earlier this year, so reviews are still coming in. But early customers are positive. One Harvey Norman buyer who had two installed as part of a new home build said: “I love every feature that this oven has and makes cooking so much easier.”
Another shopper said they loved the steam function.
“Just bought this oven and the steam functions are amazing!! So versatile and great value for money for a European-built oven,” they said.
