I am loving this duo oven so much that I practically use it everyday making delicious meals and treats, the grill function is outstanding in top and bottom! It makes cooking a baked dinner a breeze by utilizing both in oven function..Meat in main oven & veggies in the lower!! It cooks evenly. It's easy to use and keep clean!

Such An Improvement

4 out of 5, reviewed on Apr 14, 2018

We finally finished updating our kitchen and this beautiful oven replaced a Westinghouse from the 70's. What an improvement! I haven't quite figured out all the settings yet but the basic oven function cooks so evenly and looks a million dollars. You do need to keep it quite clean though as any smears show on the surface. The grill works very well for toasties. So happy with it

Great Oven, Shame About No Grill Handle

4 out of 5, reviewed on Feb 20, 2018

I purchased this oven on the weekend to replace my trusty old Kleenmaid double oven, so far very happy heats up quicker, and the fan is so silent compared to my Kleenmaid, (I obviously I got used to the noise over the years)

Shame About No Grill Handle supplied, I think this is a major safety issue, as I have already burnt my hand, I went looking on the Westinghouse spare parts site, woeful website I could not find a search function and there are 362 pages of spare parts to look through

Fan design is an issue

2 out of 5, reviewed on Feb 07, 2018

We had this oven installed 7 months ago. Was working well and does every thing an oven should. Love having the smaller oven below. A few weeks the fan in the main oven began to ting. A few days ago the fan stopped. Removed the plate and the fan has caught on the element Trying to contact Electrolux on how to fix it. Hopefully it’s easily fixed.

Update. After a little bit of work in getting through to Westinghouse we made contact with the service department. From this point it was easily resolved. Time was made, they arrived at the time booked and the problem was easily fixed.

Like it

3 out of 5, reviewed on Jan 23, 2018

Why did I buy this oven? As part of a package deal for the same appliance brands but I did look a bit more into it first before buying it.

Whats going for it.. Well it is more robustly contructed than a smeg in my opinion as I checked both out on the same day. , I wanted to buy smeg but I found their stainless ovens too weak on the doors. Cant complain about the mini lower oven especially with a second fan forced option, Im retro though folks, many might remember the smaller open door grill at the bottom of older Westinghouse or Simpson ovens from the 1980's. Yeh thats why I got it, I wanted that smaller element under grill so I can make the souffle omelettes. The fact that it is also a second oven with forced convection , great!. The suspended elements was what i was looking for though

Electronic touch functions easy to use, simple tio get the hang of.

Whats not good about it

1 - thinny winny door gasket, I mean I like thicker door gaskets than that and with better cohesion. Its not that it wont seal but ovens need more in my opinion.

2 - The dual glass might seem vogue but I found a cockroach in the cavity as they can get in there. The gaps between the glass are not sealed. Hmm hey WH really, do you not think even with the cleanest homes that insects might want to explore?

My older oven was sealed doors. I mean it might make casting them cheaper but we live with all sorts of creepy crawlys that go on night missions to see whats new.

I really like the oven timer , set it and when it goes off it wont shut up. annoying but relevant for ones attention to force you to do something.

Lastly it would have been nice if WH put in two grill trays for each oven instead of one , please dont be cheap like that, its was so close but the cigar did not come.

Anyway ... still happy with it

Best Xmas pork crackling ever!

5 out of 5, reviewed on Jan 15, 2018

I had this double oven installed on Christmas Eve ....just in time for the biggest test of the year....Christmas family dinner ! I WAS NOT DISSAPOINTED. I was able to roast ham and pork simultaneously and the crispiest roast potatoes my family have ever had. I love the clean finish in the interior and the grill unit in the bottom oven and this oven is so efficient and easy to clean. I did hours of shopping around for the best product at the best price and I think I really found it. The biggest compliment was about the pork crackling....there are often arguments about the crispness....but no more! I have a renewed interest in baking again thanks to my Westinghouse.

This oven cooked meals evenly. Great size , two layers for family entertaining . We don't use grill as much so we preferred to buy this oven. I can bake main dish on top and biscuits on bottom part at the same time. Highly recommended. Nice Stainless finish ,easy to clean.

Does not cook evenly

2 out of 5, reviewed on Dec 08, 2017

I have had this oven for about 16 months and from the start have had trouble cooking food evenly. I bake biscuits, they brown on the bottom and are still pale on top. Same thing with sausage rolls they brown on bottom and top is still white some on the edge of the tray may start to get a bit of color. Same when i cook a roast or a lasagna takes forever to cook. Already had thermostat replaced was better for a few months, now it is happening again. Also don't like the fact that you can't turn the oven light on and the gap between the two panels of glass is difficult to clean.

Love it!

5 out of 5, reviewed on Nov 06, 2017

Making a roast and Yorkshire puddings is awesome now that I have the use of 2 ovens!

I primarily use the bottom one as it is a single layer and in theory wouldn't take as long to heat up. Can also use the second part for grilling (but I don't traditionally grill things so can't comment on that side of things)

Things are cooking perfectly

The only thing to consider is we did need to get our circuit upgraded to allow for the 2 ovens to be used at the same time, otherwise a high chance of it tripping the circuit, which I didn't think of at the time of buying

Good but need to clean a bit

4 out of 5, reviewed on Oct 14, 2017

It is good to use and clean but beause it is white so you need to clean a lot of the time. Also you have to clean with soft cloth as you dont want to see it scratch the white color.

The functions are good and easy to use. Not hard to firgure out how to turn on and off.. but the ink on the knobs are slightly faded off

cooking time

2 out of 5, reviewed on Oct 03, 2017

the food is not cooking in prescribed time taking double the amount of time
tried different functions with no pleasing result
just to cook a roast chicken not sure which function and not browning
The instruction manual is very vague and should give a more defined description on what setting to use when cooking various foods

Good oven...but

4 out of 5, reviewed on Sep 03, 2017

So far so good with this oven. Just bought and got installed a week ago. Upgraded from a 40 y/o St George. Very spacious inside and seems to provide even baking especially when using fan forced. Pretty happy so far. However- bottom oven light stopped working suddenly? Don't know if I did something to the display buttons while messing around with the clock? Please help Westinghouse.

Easy Use

5 out of 5, reviewed on Jul 25, 2017

Had very expensive ovens in the past - all good. This was installed as a replacement kitchen reno and is just fantastic. The operation is easy and the room for cooking is great. Being by a Pyro oven the cleaning is a breeze. Grille and oven combo is so good for light grilling but heating at the same time.

Plastic toy - not an oven

1 out of 5, reviewed on Jul 23, 2017

Purchased one for my mother who has has countless issues with the fan not working but worse the door collapsed with the inner glass shattering. Poor design for people who use the oven a lot. It seems the inner glass is held in with about 0.5cm worth of plastic in a corner, as soon as it cracks the glass will fall out. Avoid this one so you don't get a $400 bill for a new door!

This oven heats up super quick and cooks evenly and perfectly, every time! The bottom oven works just as well as the top, only smaller. The timer features etc are simple to use also. The handles are sturdy and the outside of the glass doesn't get that too hot. Highly recommended.

Great Oven

4 out of 5, reviewed on Jul 10, 2017

Loving the double oven. Rapid heat is a great option it's so quick to heat up then turn to appropriate setting. Still playing around with the various settings. Have cooked cakes, roasts and pizzas. Have overcooked the cakes but I just have to get used to the oven then I will be sorted. Overall very pleased.

Great double oven

4 out of 5, reviewed on Jul 05, 2017

Excellent we thought when we purchased it, we matched everything in the Kitchen. Having the grill that doubles as a second oven was brilliant, however it does not have a removable oven door to help when cleaning, the pyrolytic cleaning option isn't all it is supposed to be and the bottom oven/grill smoke the stainless just above the grill door.

Awesome oven

5 out of 5, reviewed on Jul 04, 2017

We purchased this Westinghouse oven after reviewing and shopping around for the best choice of double oven. Satff at the four different stores we went to all had positive things to say about this oven. The different features as well as the price and quality sold us on it. We haven't regretted it either. I can honestly say I've got my passion for cooking and baking back since purchasing this oven. Every dish I have made has come out perfectly cooked. It's so easy to operate and the quick cook option is perfect for making dinner after work. Its so handy being able to have two separate ovens going at once as well. I can bake dinner and a cake at the same time. As for cleaning the oven, it couldn't be easier. The glass panels slide out easily and can be wiped straight over. Im in love with this oven, its my new favorite toy. I would definitely recommend it.

Great oven with dual cooking feature

4 out of 5, reviewed on May 22, 2017

Purchased this oven to replace a broken oven/grill combo. Was looking at a standard oven grill combo to replace before we saw this. The double oven means we can be cooking at 2 different temps at same time and is actually really helpful. Oven has a variety of settings. Cleaning is easy as you can remove the door glass

Great Oven - and so easy to use

5 out of 5, reviewed on May 07, 2017

We were looking for an easy to use, locally made oven, & after 6mths use this one has been great! Everything we have cooked turned out fine, & we didnt even need to read the instructions! The second mini oven is so handy, especially with the included fan & griller.
