Siemens iQ700 Ovens
Expensive Oven that looks good but could find value elsewhere – We have used the oven for 3 years as of writing this review. The oven is reliable and produces superior results to other ovens I have in the house &… Read more
have used over the years. The steam function is not perfect (have had issues with errors & use that were resolved with firmware update) and that aspect is probably the weakest link of this product. There is home connect app function that we haven't used. Seems too complicated

fing it Eeasy to use, easy to clean and is super fast on “boost” setting. The different zones you can use make it easy to cook different meals (small and large) and the cluster of controls are intuitive. After use and when it's cooled it's so easy to clean with a damp micro fibre cloth. I have owned this cooktop for 4 years now and it looks as good as the day it was installed.
Great apart from one annoying issue – I'm very happy with my Siemens induction cooktop which I've has for 12 months, apart from one annoying issue. The middle burner cooks extremely… Read more
uneven, that is if you use a large pan which sits within the outer circle, anything in the middle will cook quicker than what's on the outer. So you need to constantly reposition items in the pan to compensate.
OK I GUESS – Follow up since the rubber ring was removed, no issues at all, no fault messages. Cleans fine. I have changed the star rating. Still does the same… Read more
job as my 2nd dish was which was half the price. I have noticed the plastic has come away from one of the prongs on the middle rack, or the glasses rack. It is now rusting badly. One thing we have noticed, as it us a touch panel, if you lean on it, it sometimes turns itself off. Not often but it does happen
Finally a service guy (not from siemens), pulled the dish washer apart and found a rubber ring blocking the drain pipe. He said it has been there since day 1. Since having it removed we have had no issues.
Keeps coming up with error messages. Does not clean as well as l thought. Is no better than my second disher which was half the price a Fisher & Paykel. Talk about disappointment. Randomly comes up with a E24 fault code, it runs fine for a month or 2 then you need to run it twice on occasion 3 times to finish the cycle. It may use less water and energy than our second dishwasher but for twice the price it does a no better job. Matter of fact its a hassle some times. Its 3 years old!! When this one dies l will not get another Siemens.

really love using it. It cooks everything beautifully. love the fact it is dish like so fat does spill on the the rest of the cook tops.
Love it! – After multiple isses with Electrolux and Bosch induction cook-tops we decided to spend the extra money on this Siemens iQ model. We have not been disappointed! It has extensive cooking flexibility, is quite and quick. Looks good as well. Show details
Very controlled cooking – We bought this 30cm domino unit to complement 2 gas burners, as we weren't ready to give up on gas entirely. Good decision. We still use the gas but… Read more
we find this induction unit so precise that we find ourselves using it a lot, especially for lower heat tasks such as cooking fried eggs and spinach leaves, or omelettes on a stainless steel pan.
The slider control is intuitive and easy to use, and even provide increments of 0.5 from 1 to 9 (ie 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, etc.)
The front and rear sections can be controlled separately or bridged together and controlled singly. There's no lock on this unit but we like it that way. Just press the power button and the desired heat setting and you're on your way.
Very happy.
☆☆☆☆☆ Extremely Disappointed – Premium Price, Zero service, so ZERO star. Buyer Beware: Siemens Warranty Service Reality Check!!!!!!!!!!! Before you… Read more
buy any Siemens product, ask about the warranty service call wait time. Yes, the product performs well when it’s running—but when it fails under warranty? Prepare to wait. And wait. And wait. No urgency. No accountability. Just silence. We got fooled. Don’t let it happen to you.
We purchased in June 2022 - the Siemens SX57HS01DA semi-integrated dishwasher expecting top-tier performance and reliability. What we received was a string of error codes, technician visits, and mounting frustration. After encountering the E6100 error, a technician was dispatched to resolve the issue. While that fault was addressed, the unit was left with a new E3100 error, rendering the dishwasher completely unusable. This raises serious concerns about the workmanship and diagnostic competence of the technician—how does one fault get “fixed” only to be replaced by another? Despite paying four to five times more than standard market options, we are now left with no working dishwasher. The premium price tag promised quality, but what we got was a non-functional appliance and a service trail that feels careless at best. Is this the standard Siemens sets for its technicians and post-sale support? We expected excellence. What we got was a costly disappointment. The Job Reference Number 0970850497 remains open and unresolved. Siemens team, if you're reading this, please do not respond with your generic call center number—we’ve already gone through that loop. This issue has been escalated, documented, and repeatedly followed up. So here’s the question: If this job remains unresolved, where should this event (setting it to fire/crushing/sledgehammer) be made public? - YouTube? - Facebook Live? - Instagram? - Or perhaps all of the above? We’ve paid a premium for this product and expected premium support. What we’ve received is negligence. The clock is ticking.
Very disappointing experience for such an expensive cooktop – My wife and I recently purchased a Siemens 80cm induction cooktop to replace a 15 year old Miele induction cooktop which developed a fault that was… Read more
too expensive to repair. This review is based on 6 months of experience with the Siemens cooktop.
I'll start with the Siemens' good points: ⁃ The cooktop appears to be of good quality and performs well at delivering nice even power level to the cooking zones, which is helpful when maintaining a simmer, etc. ⁃ A choice of 17 power levels is available for each cooking zone (0.5, 1.0, 1.5, … ,8.5,9.0) ⁃ The cooktop has an interesting concept of flexible cooking zones to accommodate oblong or unusually large cooking pots & pans. There are four rectangular 23cm(W) x 20cm(D) cooking zones (each consisting of two 23cm x 10cm induction elements). The two left cooking zones can be linked together to form a 23cm x 20cm flexible cooking zone and the same can be done with the two right cooking zones. In addition, each large flexible cooking zone can automatically include an additional “flexInduction Plus” 9cm(W) x 20cm(D) induction element if the cookware extends over it (see first photo for layout).
Now for what we judge to be the Siemens’ bad points: ⁃ There are no markings on the cooktop to indicate the boundaries of the cooking zones and, in our kitchen, these zones are only visible if the range hood lights are switched on. Even then, it can be difficult to see the cooking zone boundaries if there are large pots & pans which cast shadows. This makes it awkward to accurately position cookware, which is essential for proper use of the cooktop. ⁃ The use of boost power in a cooking zone is quite restrictive in that it is not available if the other cooking zone on the same side is operating (even at low power). In contrast, our old Miele cooktop used to allow the boost power to be engaged in this situation and power was shared intelligently between the two cooking zones ⁃ The distribution of power within a cooking zone (or a larger flexible cooking zone) is not as even as we were used to with our old Miele cooktop. This is particularly evident when, for example, making jam and getting it to set. ⁃ The two “automatic” flexInduction Plus elements sometimes don’t engage when we would expect them to - a bit hit and miss? ⁃ The cooking zones are positioned towards the rear of the cooktop which can make it difficult for my wife of modest height (5ft 3in, 160cm) to look into large pots and to stir them. ⁃ The cooktop cooling fan makes a noticeable whining sound when cooking zones operate at higher power levels and the warm air flow is quite noticeable in the cooking utensil drawer below the cooktop. We were never aware of the Miele’s cooling fan operating in 15 years of use. ⁃ The ceramic surface of the Siemens cooktop has chrome trims along the left and right edges but there are no trims on the front and back edges which, instead, have bare ceramic with a 1.5mm indent along the bottom which contacts the bench top. We don’t look forward to having a food spill — very tricky to clean here. ⁃ The cooking zones have a slightly textured surface which is proving more difficult to keep clean with time (compared to the gloss glass finish elsewhere on the cooktop). ⁃ The cooktop has a 11cm(W) x 7cm(D) display which requires a two stage process to change power level by first touching the rectangle for the desired cooking zone, waiting a moment for the power adjustment scale to appear and then touching/sliding a finger to select the desired power level. This two stage process is quite fiddly (particularly with the power adjustment scale being only about 5cm long) and can become a real bother if you are doing complex cooking operations involving three or four cooking zones at once. Our old Miele cooktop had dedicated plus/minus buttons for each cooking zone, which were always displayed and were quick and intuitive to use (see second photo).
On balance, while the Siemens cooktop is of good quality and has reasonably flexible cooking zones to accommodate large and/or unusually shaped cookware, we consider it to be inferior to the 15 year old Miele cooktop it replaced. We regret choosing the Siemens cooktop but, at the time, there was little choice because the old Miele cooktop failed in mid-July and most retailers had very restricted stock available because of the recent end-of-financial-year sales (frustrating!). We purchased the Siemens from Winnings in Indooroopilly (Brisbane) "on special" at around $4,000 (list price around $5,000 at the time).

told this was not a manufacturing issue, and that I would have to pay to have the glass replaced. As this is a brand new appliance I am extremely unhappy with this as I would expect something like this to only happen after years of use. I am now going to have to pay over $600 to replace this. I would recommend that people be aware off the fragility of the glass when looking to buy an induction hob from Siemens.
Disappointing for the cost – Very disappointed with a top level brand. It takes much longer to even boil water compared to our previous cheap (third of the price) Bosch induction… Read more
cooktop and its top setting of "b" is not as hot as the predecessor. It's very annoying that the timer and the heat setting are both controlled on the same scale eg if you set the timer there is quite a wait until you can change the heat setting. Also the edge of the glass has chipped after only a few months of very careful use. When initially installed, the safety feature kept being triggered if there were more than 2 pots being used at the same time- took several trips from the electrician to get it fixed and will still trigger quite easily.
