wafercubes 0 Report post Posted September 21, 2011 hi,i am new here and need KM's advice. After reading all the threads..i am inclined to buy:1) Brandt FE811XS1 (selling S$899 at H/N)2) Brandt FP867XS1 (selling S$1899 at H/N)then saw this brand at centrepoint:3) Blomberg 9790X (now offer S$2038)obviously when price is concerned, option1 is only the choice. However, if i decide to buy option2, then shd also consider option3 as it seems to have more functions than Brandt? (e.g. Blomberg:64L oven cavityinterior lighting with 2 square halogen lamps No rotisserie (but there is turnspit function, what is the diff?)15A14 cooking functionselectronic touch control3-level telescopic racksBrandt:54L oven cavityinterior lighting with 1 bulbhas rotisserie16A10 cooking functionsrotary knob controlcan KM advise? i am new in baking but intend to bake a lot in future...not just cakes..but also casseroles, grilling etc. so is option1 good enough? many thanks in advance!

critic 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2011 Hi,I am considering about this model. Could anyone please help to complain against the below models:1. Bosch HBN331E2J2. Brandt 811SX3. Brandt 867SX4. La Germania F669 SeriesThankshi,the F 669 and FP 867 are self cleaning model ovens. Basically if you are into roasting or grilling stuff, it will be good to have them. As for your needs, the 331 and 811 models should pretty much serve that purpose though there are some feature differences between the two.The comparison mode for the two models is the best to my knowledge .....bosch ovenbasically 5 sets of different features... for usage of the baking of pizza you can either use the bottom heat function which is concentrating on the finishing of the crust of the pizzabrandt ovena 6 feature oven which has a dedicated feature specially meant for the finishing of the crust of the pizza and the ingredients that is being laid on the pizza.Hope that helps...rgdscritic.

cubeball 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 Just wondering if Brandt FP867SX1 is the same as FP1067XS according to brandt FP1067XS is their latest model (wat's the difference)Ok ... confirm tat FP1067XS is the latest model, looks nicer with more glass. Otherwise it's the same function. Same goes for other oven models for brandt, think started in April ba Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
strikingreality 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 1067 should have the same features as 867, except that it is the newer improved model. Something like comparing PS3 vs PS2. But I have only seen Rina Electrical stocking it... the rest are still selling 867. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lemontee 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2011 Wah... you have a very wide range of models being considered. First of all, I think you might want to decide between(1) What are you using it for? Are you going to do massive roasting in which case a self cleaning model will be useful. (2) Budget. How much do you want to spend (the models you quoted range from $600 - $2000)(3) Self Cleaning (Catalytic or Pyrolytic?)Thanks for your explanation.We will just use it to bake the cake, pizza, sometimes may do some simple roasting as well. Thus, I guess we will narrow down to the basic models. Will consider among the below models.1. Brandt FE811 -- ~S$800 Made in France, two layer of glasses, 2. Bosch HBN331E2J -- ~S$660 Made in Turkey, two layer of glasses, electronic timer3. Bosch HBA23B550J -- S$900 Made in Germany, promotion as it is going to EOL, 3 layer glasses, catalytic panel at back, electronic timer4. La Germania F669 -- S$800 Made in Italy, 2 layer glasses, electronic timer, self cleaning (catalytic panel at top, side, back)Please suggest which one I should go. Is the country of origin play a big part on the product quality?We aiming to use it for at least 5 years....TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are only going to do simple baking, these models should be more than sufficient.The Bosch 23A is a partial self cleaning model. Only the back panel is a Catalytic panel, the sides are enamel. This model is going to be discontinued, hence the promo. The Brandt 867 is a full pyrolytic self cleaning model.I can't really explain the different between Catalytic and Pyrolytic, but if you do a search you can find a lot of information on it. I dunno about the La Germania as I never considered it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
