DO NOT BUY – It bakes and cooks perfectly well but as soon as you turn it off you will be confronted with a howling gale as it sets about nanny state cooling mode which cannot be disabled. Mine is destined for the recycler, can’t stand it Show details

Amazing oven at a good price! – Bought this oven instead of the usual Westinghouse however never heard of it, the sales guy really recommended it and boy was he right! Cooks evenly has the different settings for different items, love it! Ariston is my go to kitchen appliance now! Italian made and great quality! You will not be disappointed! Show details · 1
Couldn't be happier! – Even cooking, easy to use and looks wonderful too! Very happy with my Ariston oven, I love the ease of cleaning and the way I can rely on my oven to cook evenly. A quality oven with ALL the functions I need at a reasonable price. Highly recommend this oven! Show details
Excellent oven. Even heat. Cooks perfectly – This is the best oven I have used. The heat is evenly distributed throughout the oven space. It heats up quickly and the time shown in recipes is always spot on. Mt favorite feature is the cake baking setting which ensures my cupcakes and delicate sponge cakes are cooked perfectly. No hot spots. No burning. I'm very pleased with this product. Thank you Ariston and Harvey Norman Show details

Should have gone for another brand – Only bought it coz my oven died it was an AEG. My only complaint was tgat the AEG was tooo hot . Was tossing up to see if i should buy another AEG as it was on special. However decided to buy ariston cos i keep seeing it promoted on master chef. ANYHOW i regret my decision . It doesnt even roast potatoes well. They come out soggy. Only if you… Read more
roast at low heat for 1 hour it comes out slightly better but still not as good as my westinghouse in my old house. There are also hot spots.
Cooks very nicely - initially! 4 years on, it loses heat – We had terrible Westinghouse oven before this. So we researched on Product Review to find the best oven at a reasonable price out there, and this was it. It was on special at Harvey Norman so we bought it! Now my cakes and muffins are fluffy and properly cooked. Now I can bake biscuits on two trays and they get cooked nicely with no burning! Now… Read more
our vegetables are soft and/or caramelised with the roast when I cook that. I have always known that I'm a good cook, and gee whiz, it makes a HUGE difference having a good oven! So much for the old adage of 'a good workman never blames his tools'. Basically, this is WAY better than our old oven. We've only been using it for 1-2 months now, but it is SOOOO much better! Having written that, I am also comparing it to a terrible oven. Being able to actually use multiple trays to cook on is great. The heat seems to be more even in this oven, and it seems to have a variety of elements to use, and the manual is actually helpful! It helps you to figure out the best racks and temperatures etc to use for cooking certain foods, which I rather like. So I'd highly recommend this oven; a drawback is that there is no clock on it, but after all the electronic failures that people seem to have occur with their ovens, perhaps that's just as well. The dials are easy to use, and it heats up quickly enough, although I feel the door does let a little bit of heat escape. Read my comments below for further details on that - which is why I knocked it down from 4 stars to 3 stars. It does also tend to have the fan keep on going for quite some time after cooking, to help dissipate the heat, which is a little annoying.
A year later, this oven is still going strong. Great cakes and roasts, biscuits turn out well on 2… Read more (+2 replies)
Thermostat light did not work – Have had a problem with the thermostat light ever since purchase. The light will occasionally come on but 98% of the time it is not on. Called Harvey Norman a few days after purchase and said sending someone. Still no one has turned up -purchased 21/11/2016 Have called Ariston who also said they would send someone ( about 2 months ago!) and… Read more
still no one has turned up.
After sales service is appalling and it appears they do not honor their warranty.
Not Happy at all.

Oven was fine service was fantastic – So let’s be clear I’ve had an Ariston oversized oven and it constantly sweats and has water running down the front I’ve had it serviced by the official service agent they said they havnt had issues with that model. Yes it has not been the best Oven, it had issues ... HOWEVER "Adam M" at Ariston service was amazing, yes they rejected the first… Read more
round but with additional information and emails they have given a full refund after 4 years, collected the old unit and I have a 100% credit back at Harvey Norman for a new oven.. Seriously Amazing, I cannot say thank you enough for the outcome.. most ovens give 2 years warranty and I must say 5 years is almost unheard of.. they certainly backed their goods .. THANK YOU ARISTON - GREAT WORK :-)
Does it's job – We've had this oven for nearly 5 years now and we use it at least one a week. It's definitely does it's job. It comes with different setting like pizza, baking, ect but to be honest we just stick to the fan force. Can't really be bothered looking up what setting is for what temperature and what rack to use. Everything cooks fine as per the… Read more
recipe so the temperature must be fairly spot on. I do find the back right corner gets much more heated than the left corner so I generally try and turn my baking dish around just to make sure everything is cooked evenly.
Overall for the price we paid it's definitely has ticked all the boxes
Good appliance for rental – This was in our rental property when we bought it. Probably about 10 years old. Was a great appliance until it died. Never had any issues with it and then everything broke at once - heating element and fan. Ariston is a good brand but the parts are very expensive to replace. Would purchase Ariston again for myself but for the rental we decided to go with a product that had parts more readily available and cheaper. Show details
Fantastic oven! – I did a detailed check on all ovens here on Product Review before selecting to buy. And very pleased I did. This oven rated best overall and I'm extremely happy with it. Very easy to use and temperatures are accurate. I've had it now for about 4 months and have given the oven and grill a good workout. The racks too are well balanced and pull… Read more · 1
out quite a long way making it easy to check the cooking and remove food from the oven. Very happy with my purchase!
Mags.
Excellent Basic oven – PROS: Recently purchased and very happy with it. Has quite a few different functions. Before purchasing we were concerned about the grill, as we are normally have the separate grill, but it works perfectly. Very sleek looking, and easy controls. CONS: Only down side is that it takes AGES to cool down and for the cooling fan to turn off. It takes well over an hour unless you leave the door open. Smaller inside compared to my last 60cm oven.

believe the reviews – What a brilliant oven! I was hesitant initially as it was the most basic model in the Ariston range, but I really didn't need all the other features and functions of the higher end models. I have had it about 5 weeks and have found it to be far better than I could have expected, fantastic even cooking and the functions it has work perfectly for… Read more · 1
what you are cooking. cherry on top is the 5 year warranty, no other brand gets close to that! a big thumbs up from me, quiet, cooks evenly and looks good in the kitchen.

Love it – I chose the Ariston cooking package recently when upgrading my kitchen. I chose the Ariston as it was all available and it was also well priced. The sales lady gave me a good wrap on the products, but I was also swayed by its use and promotion on Masterchef. I have absolutely no regrets in buying the Ariston range. It is a great set of units,… Read more
the oven has plenty of capacity and works a dream. It is also easy to keep clean. The cooktop leaves plenty of space for bit pots and the rangehood is very effective also. I highly recommend it. It feels very encouraging to use!
Perfect!!!!! – After researching ovens extensively it became clear that the Ariston brand was the only oven that rated consistantly well. As I work in a commercial kitchen I have experience with poorly functioning ovens so I wanted to get it right. I purchased this oven seceral months ago and couldn't be happier. It heats quickly, and cooks beautifully. Controls… Read more · 1
are easy to use and the trays move smoothly. It is also quiet and does not let out heat, so it can be used in hot weather. On top of all this it'a breeze to clean. I highly recommend this product.
Really happy with my purchase – I chose this oven based on reviews, price & warranty and I'm certainly not disappointed. It is so quiet, the first time I used it I wondered if it was actually working! The dials are fairly basic but really are all you need and I think it's a really nice looking oven. It heats up quickly and seems to maintain the heat well. So far everything I… Read more · 1
have cooked has turned out really well from roasts with nice crispy potatoes to perfect moist muffins. It is a little on the small side but I'm getting into the habit of removing the trays I don't need before I turn the oven on and I think it's big enough for our family for normal use. I would definitely recommend this oven and with a 5 year standard warranty means you don't need to purchase additional warranty like you would with another brand.
Okay but – Learning to adjust to a smaller oven. Cooking the meat and vegies for a baked dinner for seven was impossible as not being able to use the top and bottom shelf on fan forced mode resulted in having to use an electric fry pan to complete cooking to have dinner on time. Audible timer warning not long enough. If one was in another room one would miss the very short timer alarm.
What an addition to my kitchen – We purchased a Ariston package from Harvey Norman - great price and keen on the long warranty. All products look great, the cooktop layout is fantastic (using 4 pots/pans at the same time is a breeze now) and cooks much quicker than my previous gas cooktop. Love all the options on the oven, can't wait to try the pizza mode!! Everything that I have cooked in the oven so far has turned out well, cooks quickly and even.
Beautiful new oven – I have just had my kitchen remodeled after 40 years. I chose Ariston appliances. I cannot express how happy I am with the wonderful oven. I have found it very simple to use, and am now baking up a storm. So happy :) Show reply
Works like a dream – This oven is a grat product, cooks even and easy to use and regulate, love the pizza function, no more soggie pizza bottoms..thanks Ariston.
So far, so good! – Like the sleek lines and it is easy to use the numerous functions. Plus easy to clean and reaches the required temp quickly. It is also inspiring me to cook more and be adventurous...
Extremely happy customer – We have just built a new kitchen and purchased the ariston package after recommendation from a friend. It's fantastic, oven cooks food evenly and to perfection.

So easy to cook with and beautiful to look at – Just purchased my brand new cooker. It is so easy to use, cooks lovely roasts and looks good too. WE bought the whole package as the price was in our range
Ariston oven – We bought this oven about a month ago after reading good reviews about it. It seemed to be the only oven within our price range that had consistently good reviews. So far everything is very good. No issues. The oven fan stays on for a while after turning off to cool down the inside.

This oven is very well manufactured – I was surprised how easy it was to cook with this oven after having problems with other top brand ovens I have found that the temperature on this oven is much more accurate than other brands, I am very happy with it. It is large enough to cope with large trays and cooking pans. good temperature, easy to clean and easy on the eye
Ariston Oven – The oven is excellent, its the best one i've had. It heats things quickly and evenly and the size of the stovetop is perfect! The size of the oven is great as well because its not to big and not to small so its perfect for family size meals to be heated up all at the same time. Everything There aren't any!

Quality Appliances? Buy Ariston! – We have recently purchased an Ariston Oven, Rangehood and Cooktop Package from Harvey Norman. After spending a lot of time researching we realised there were many options in the market. Our salesperson backed the Ariston brand and at the time of purchasing the items were on sale and a very competitive rate. We chose Ariston over cheaper and far… Read more
more expensive brands as their reputation was upheld by store staff and previous reviews showed good feedback. Loving our Ariston gear! Sleek look, good reputation, quality for money

Simply Love it… – I love the lines of the Oven its stainless steel front and blue tinged glass looks great. It is easy to use, heats quickly and easily cleaned. I purchased the matching Combi Oven as well. The inside liner wipes over easy and the shelves are also easily removed. Cost effective as well. Sleekness and appearance.
Very happy – We purchased this oven as part of a package from Harvey Norman. We were trying to decide between this package and a Fisher and Paykel one at a similar price, and made the choice to go with Ariston due to the five year warranty which gives us peace of mind. We are extremely happy with the look and performance of the whole package. The oven is easy to use and clean, quiet and cooks everything evenly, a great addition to our new renovated kitchen.
Great combo – We just renovate our kitchen with Ariston combo. Great package for cook top,oven and rangehood for under $2000. Fantastic product but the oven doesn't come with grill pan rails. Overall great product & bargain. Great package and instruction manual. I love ariston since we seen it at Master Chef program.
Great oven – We bought this oven as well as a cooktop, range-hood and dishwasher all from Ariston. It cooks perfectly and it is much quieter than our previous oven. It has a very user friendly display and it looks sensational. It fits really nicely in our new kitchen. I would recommend this oven to anyone. Easy to use
