Samsung Steam Compact Oven?

Has anyone used or currently own the Samsung NQ5B7993AAK?

It's currently on offer for £350, which is about £650 cheaper than most places I've seen.

Our AEG combi oven/microwave just gave up after 7 years, and we’re looking for a solid replacement — ideally without a microwave function this time.

This would be used alongside a main oven, and the primary use will be reheating food. If you’ve got any experience with it (good or bad), I’d love to hear your thoughts!

    We have a steam-combo oven from another brand and love it. Reheating food is slower than in a microwave but the results come out much better. Steaming rather than boiling veg is 99% of the time much better, similarly for doing large batches of rice or such. 

    If you are into your baking it's also a game changer, none of this messing around with pans of ice to try and get steam in for the first part of the bake.
