Fagor Pyrolytic Oven

Hi

Looking for a pyrolytic oven and found Fagor. It is the most reasonable of all the cookers I have looked at. I gather it is a Spanish company and makes ordinary ovens as well.

I wonder if anybody has had a Fagor oven and what they thought of them.

Many thanks

  • Google Fagor reviews and check out some of the issues on ukwhitegoods.co.uk forums.

    I have no idea if they are any good but the Fagor washing nachines/dishwashers do not get great user reviews when we looked intothem at teh beginning of the year (5 year warranties were offered) in general with low quality parts and very poor after care service apparently. They are cheap for a reason it seems!

    Fagor appliances, can best be described with one word - "crap"

    I used to sell them. Never, EVER again...

    I had a Fagor oven installed as part of a deal when I had my kitchen installed 17 years ago. I had it for 13 years and nothing wrong with it. I changed it 4 years ago only because I wanted to change the hob / oven for stainless steel. It was working perfectly when I changed it. I know they are cheap but I couldn't fault it.

    Hi

    Oooo - A pyrolytic oven heats up to 500 degrees, more than twice the maximum temperature of a normal oven. I wouldn't touch a pyrolytic oven unless it was made by Miele, Gaggenau, Siemens, Neff or Bosch.

    I just wouldn't feel safe with any other brands.

    Good luck

  • I've got one of their microwave combi ovens which I've had for 6 months now with no problems so far.

    I did also get one of their induction hobs which blew a fuse after a few weeks but got repaired quickly and has been fine ever since

    Kuppersbusch don't make pyrolytic ovens, Atag not bad I suppose but no proper service in the UK, Wolf - why? when you could have Gaggenau or Miele, and AEG - no thanks you might just as well have a Zanussi or Electrolux.
