Frequently Asked Questions

What is a steam oven?

A steam oven cooks using hot steam rather than dry heat to help preserve moisture, nutrients and natural colour in food. Unlike conventional ovens, steam ovens won't dry out proteins or wilt delicate vegetables, making them a staple in health-conscious and chef-inspired kitchens. They're available as standalone units or integrated into tall oven columns for a seamless built-in look.
What is a combi steam oven?

A combi (combination) steam oven does everything a steam oven does plus it also functions as a full conventional oven. You can use steam, fan-forced heat or both simultaneously giving you crispy exteriors with moist, perfectly cooked interiors. It's the more versatile option for serious home cooks who want a single appliance to handle roasting, baking, steaming, and reheating.
How does a steam oven work?

Steam ovens heat water either from an integrated tank or direct plumbing to generate steam that fills the oven cavity. This moisture then surrounds food evenly, cooking it gently without the moisture loss associated with conventional dry heat.
What is a steam oven used for & what can you cook in it?

Steam ovens are very versatile. You can use them for steaming fish, vegetables or rice, proofing bread dough, reheating leftovers, poaching eggs, cooking sous-vide style proteins and even warming plates. Combi steam models extend the appliances functionality to roasting, baking bread with a crackly crust and cooking full meals with precise humidity control.
What is the difference between a steam oven and a combi steam oven?

A pure steam oven cooks exclusively with moist heat, ideal for preserving nutrients in vegetables, fish and grains. A combi steam oven combines steam with conventional cooking functions like fan-forced and grill, giving you the flexibility to roast, bake and steam all in one appliance. For most households, a combination steam oven offers the greatest versatility.
Is a steam oven worth it?

For those who prioritise healthy, flavourful cooking, a steam oven is an outstanding investment. Steam cooking retains significantly more nutrients than boiling or roasting, and produces noticeably more tender, moist results. If you're looking for the best steam oven Australia has to offer, the combi models from brands like Miele and Smeg are widely regarded as the benchmark for home cooking performance.
