Hi Kiddboy Guess for a standard HDB flat, no much variation is possible, so visit every house quite similar. Only the reno and colour coordination etc will make the difference. You planning to do kitchen extension also? And glass? Also sengkang? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggy 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2010 (edited) No updates for a while because no happening, except recee here and there for appliances. So angry with myself for missing out the electrolux warehouse sale over the weekend! So went down to harvey today, and saw 3 models. Can experienced folks please advice: All 3 have same capacity at 52litre. (sorry maybe a bit confused, but I am comparing the models 53000, 31001 and 35000 (pyro, not in the picture but same features as 31001) All Germany made. All 3 layers glass. 3 models are EOB 53000 * 8 cooking functions (see attached list), but compared with other two, this one has 2 extra (convection with ring heat for 3-level baking which works like a top/bottom/fan, pizza setting with bottom heat and fan). *manual cleaning EOB 31001 * has top + bottom + fan. (this is supposed to allow 2 layers baking, while above model allows 3 layers baking) * no pizza, but has bottom heat only, which I thought is similar. * manual cleaning EOB 35000 * same features are EOB 31001, except this one has pyrolytic function. ie self cleaning by burning deposits into ashes at 500C, so just need to clean ashes after the self cleaning cycle. I was actually eyeing the 53000 but thought the 35000 is good because of the self cleaning function. But being self cleaning, it definitely means more electricity consumption(for 35000) because need to let it self clean at 500C for about 2 hours each cycle. So should I pay more for that or just make do with cleaning manually? Also to do the pyro cleaning, temp is high at 500C. I am also worried if that temp will damage the cabinets in the long term. So maybe it does not justify taking so much risks just bc i am lazy to clean manually? Of course another option is to get the 35000 pyro self cleaning model, but don't use the pyro function unless i do major grilling, but sounds a bit stupid to pay more but don't use the feature right? Price aside, do you have any advice for me before i commit? * Do you think the pizza function is important? Or is the bottom heat the same as one specifically stated as pizza function? * Similarly is top/bottom/fan the same as convention plus ring heat element? Since the purpose is multi level baking right? Headache headache Edited June 7, 2010 by froggy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have not experience it yet but best to ask the sale person or anyone used that before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samgalz 2 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 I would think manual cleaning would be enough...IMHO...not worth paying more, I dun think u will use this function often as it means more electrical consumption = more $$ and also the risk of your cabinets....that cost more....
