Recommendation for built in double oven

I am currently looking into buying a built in double oven for my new kitchen. Up to now I am looking at a Neff:

http://www.appliancesonline.co.uk/product/U15M62N0GB-Neff-Electric-Double-Oven-Stainless-Steel-16178.aspx?specification=true&cm_mmc=Froogle-_-Built%20In%20double%20ovens-_-Neff-_-U15M62N0GB_SS

But have read some dubious threads on here about Neff.

Anyone got any good recommendations (either a specific model or make)

    In the process of doing up my kitchen and spent hours trawling the www and found one I like but the reviews aren't brilliant. What make would you want in your kitchen?

    It needs to be a double oven and built in (not under counter)

    I have an idesit, efficient to run, easy to clean and has done brilliantly since we had it fitted.

    Just looked at the idesit and they look like the lower end of the market - looking at spend about £600 - £800 but on something I know is a good piece of kit.

    Next time I am in store I will however give them another look in person. You never can tell until you see them for real.

    I've used an awful lot of ovens in my time, including in professional kitchens, and one of the best ovens I've ever used was the cheapo Indesit in our old flat. How I miss that oven :( Honestly the most expensive ovens are not necessarily the best and two different ovens from the same brand may not be created equal so read lots of reviews and maybe ask friends what oven they have and whether they like it.

    I fitted a new Zanussi double oven in the kitchen of our old house and we were very happy with it. I did manage to chip one of the knobs when I dropped a baking tray on it from the cupboard on top but I can't say whether the Zanussi knobs are any weaker or more brittle than any other make.

    Either Baumatic or Bosch for me-I have Baumatic, double oven built in and I find it cooks evenly and the temperature is always accurate.
    My sister and dad both have Bosch and are both impressed by it-it probably has the edge over my Baumatic as it self cleans :)

    I too had an indesit oven (single) in our last house, it was a brilliant piece of kit, did just what it said on the box.

    I have had indesit washers for years I bought a washer dryer in 1994, it finally gave up the ghost in 2003, I had never had the service people out to it. I bought another indesit and I have one now.
